What it is

The Tegal Plasmaline Model 421 is a plasma etch and ashing system.[1]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A plasma etch system generates an ionized gas in a process chamber and uses the resulting chemically active species to alter or remove exposed surface material. The process can be configured for etching or for ashing, depending on the process gas and the desired surface reaction.

Applications

The Model 421 is used for plasma etching and plasma ashing.[1]
