Vacuum Chamber Cleaning Products Enable Much Faster PM's and Reduced Particle Levels

Vacuum Chambers present difficult cleaning problems for equipment engineers and vacuum technicians.

Since 1997 our UltraSOLV® Chamber Cleaning products have enabled Equipment Engineers to quickly and thoroughly remove and clean process deposition from a wide range of vacuum chambers used throughout the Semiconductor, Flat Panel Display, Disk Drive and Optics Industries, by eliminating the use of:

Scotch-Brite™
Commercial sand paper
H₂O₂
Non Absorbent clean room wipers

With the advent of sub 65 nanometer processing geometries and the cost pressures associated with 300mm fabs Process and Equipment Engineers need assistance improving post PM particle performance and equipment uptime. Likewise with the need to expand solar cell production Photovoltaic Fab Managers need assistance removing stubbornly adhered SiNx process residue from Roth and Rau and Centrotherm CVD tools.

Our worldwide network of Sales Engineers have a proven track record of reducing defect on wafer metrics, reducing 300mm tool Cost of Ownership and speeding up PM's on PECVD tools in the Solar Cell Industry.

Vacuum Chamber PM Kits are used throughout the world in 200MM and 150MM wafer fabs to improve uptime.

The most difficult to clean Oxide, Nitride and fluorinated glass process residues can be removed more easily from Vacuum Chambers

Vacuum Chamber Process Parameters are Improved:

Reduced post PM Particle Counts
Reduction of Cleaning Times
Reduction of Recovery Times
Reduction of PM generated Hazardous Waste
Improved film uniformity in thermal CVD processes

The Foamtec International Sales/Application Engineering Staff has worked closely with the leading Tool Manufacturers and wafer fab professionals, to develop a High Precision PM Technique that drives improved tool performance and reduced cost of ownership. Our fab experience and working directly with our customers allowed us to develop tools used for many different special applications to help meet their objectives. We have a world wide network of factory trained engineers to support our customers.
