Vacuum System - The Largest Semiconductor Subsystem
Vacuum refers to the state of gas in a given space that is below atmospheric pressure. Vacuum technology is the technology required to create a physical environment below atmospheric pressure, as well as to carry out processes, physical measurements, and scientific experiments in this environment.
Manufacturing semiconductor chips must be done in a vacuum environment to avoid oxidation and contamination, ensuring chip quality and performance.
At normal temperature and pressure, the environment contains a large amount of impurities, making chips susceptible to oxidation and contamination during the semiconductor manufacturing process, which severely affects chip quality and production efficiency.
In vacuum technology, vacuum degree is commonly used to measure the thinness of gas in a vacuum state, usually represented by the pressure value of the gas. The higher the pressure value, the lower the vacuum degree; the lower the pressure value, the higher the vacuum degree. A vacuum system consists of components such as vacuum pumps, control systems, gas storage tanks, and piping installations, including many core semiconductor components like molecular pumps, cryopumps, dry pumps, isolation valves, control valves, transfer valves, and O-Ring seals.

Vacuum Degree Range | Pressure Range | Main Application Areas |
Low Vacuum | 10^5Pa-10^2Pa | Using the pressure difference obtained from low vacuum to hold, lift, and transport materials, as well as for dust collection and filtration. |
Medium Vacuum | 10^2Pa-10^1Pa | Generally used to remove gases or moisture retained or dissolved in materials, manufacture light bulbs, vacuum metallurgy, and serve as thermal insulation. |
High Vacuum | 10^-1Pa-10^-5Pa | Used in thermal insulation, electrical insulation, and to avoid molecular electronic ion collisions. |
Ultra High Vacuum | <10^-5Pa | Commonly used in research on controllable thermonuclear fusion, the production of time reference hydrogen molecular mirrors, and research in surface physics and surface chemistry. |

Dry etching and wet etching in semiconductor etching film processes are suitable for different specific scenarios. 1. **Dry Etching**: - **Applications**: Typically used for high-resolution patterning, such as in the fabrication of integrated circuits (ICs) and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). - **Advantages**: Provides better control over etching profiles, allows for anisotropic etching (vertical etching), and is suitable for etching complex geometries. - **Common Techniques**: Reactive Ion Etching (RIE), Deep Reactive Ion Etching (DRIE), and Plasma Etching. 2. **Wet Etching**: - **Applications**: Often used for bulk material removal, cleaning, and in processes where isotropic etching is acceptable, such as in the fabrication of certain types of sensors and optical devices. - **Advantages**: Generally simpler and less expensive than dry etching, and can be more effective for certain materials. - **Common Techniques**: Acid or alkaline solutions are used to etch materials like silicon, silicon dioxide, and metals. In summary, dry etching is preferred for applications requiring precision and complex patterns, while wet etching is suitable for simpler tasks and bulk material processing.
