Ultimate Throughtput in Lift-Off Processes with 150mm or 200mm Wafers
The Temescal UEFC-5700 with Auratus represents our ultimate high-throughput platform for lift-off oriented evaporation. This system is designed to support the metallization of forty-two 150mm wafers per load via high capacity e-beam evaporation.
The load locked product chamber can be pumped by as many as two dedicated, high throughput 16-inch cryogenic pumps. Dual-cryopumps make it possible to pump this large chamber in 10 minutes from atmosphere to pressures in the range of

Temescal Control System
The Temescal Control System (TCS) provides fully integrated, recipe-driven process and vacuum control. Operating in any of three password-protected modes, the TCS also offers process variable monitoring, process and historical trend tracking, and process data logging.
TCS System Map During Deposition
The TCS Automatic Mode
Auto Mode operation provides fully automated execution of user-programmed recipes consisting of up to twenty process steps, as well as full abort diagnostics. The TCS Auto Mode also offers independent autopump and autovent operations, automated cryopump regeneration, and automated rate-of-rise testing.
Manual Mode Operation
The TCS Manual Mode enables the user to set process parameters, operate major components and subsystems individually with full interlock protection, and execute nonautomated single-film deposition processes.
Service Mode Operation
The TCS Service Mode provides noninterlocked low-level control over any of the system’s valves, pumps, motors, or power supplies.
