The Branson IPC 2000 / 3000 is a manual plasma processing system. The Branson IPC 2000 / 3000 is used for plasma ashing, descum, dry cleaning, surface treatment, and plasma etching. The Branson IPC 2000 / 3000 supports small samples up to 8 inch wafers depending on model and chamber configuration.[1]
The Branson IPC 2000 / 3000 is a manual RF plasma processing platform used for photoresist ashing, plasma descum, dry cleaning, surface treatment, and plasma etching in semiconductor and related industries.[1]
The system belongs to a family that includes the 2000, 3000, and 4000 series and is available in desktop or stand-alone configurations depending on the model and chamber type.[1]
The Branson IPC 2000 / 3000 operates by the operator manually loading samples or wafers into the chamber, followed by chamber evacuation, introduction of process gas, and generation of RF power to create plasma. The process runs under controlled pressure, gas flow, and time.[1]
