In the semiconductor industry, hollow cathodes are best known for their application as sputter sources, however an increasingly successful range of gas plasma sources have been built by Meaglow Ltd for application in plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition (PE-ALD) and plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PE-CVD).

Key Points: 
  • In the semiconductor industry, hollow cathodes are best known for their application as sputter sources, however an increasingly successful range of gas plasma sources have been built by Meaglow Ltd for application in plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition (PE-ALD) and plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PE-CVD).
  • Meaglow has made several large area sources, in fact, the new order that pushes past the 50th plasma source is for three 4 diameter sources and an 8 diameter source for the OEM Okyay Tech ( www.okyaytechald.com/ ) who will use the sources in some of their upcoming ALD equipment builds.
  • We believe Meaglows designs represent the first successful, wide spread, application of hollow cathode gas sources for thin film deposition, says Dr. Scott Butcher, Chief Scientist of Meaglow Ltd. Past designs struggled with uniform plasma distribution, a problem which Meaglow has overcome.
  • Its range of next generation hollow cathode plasma sources is transforming the way plasma deposition is done.
