Plasma assisted atomic level processing – PEALD & ALE Sunday, September 16, 2018 The focus will be on atomic level processing technologies, such as Plasma Enhanced Atomic Layer Deposition (PEALD) and Atomic Layer Etching (ALE). The tutorial will provide the basics of the processes, but also insights into the fundamentals of processes, as well as an overview of the processing equipment and applications of these leading edge technologies. The tutorial will be organized by Adriana Creatore, TU Eindhoven, the Netherlands, in cooperation with Jonas Sundqvist, Fraunhofer IKTS, Dresden, Germany. |

3. Tutorial (SVC C-337)
ITO and Alternative TCO: From Fundamentals to Controlling Properties
Thursday, September 20, 2018
09:25 - 18:55, Room Dreitorspitze
This tutorial will be organized by the Society of Vacuum Coaters (SVC) in cooperation with EFDS and will be presented by Clark Bright, Bright Thin Film Solutions, LLC (retired 3M), USA.
This tutorial course is intended for scientists, engineers, technicians, and others, interested in understanding the fundamentals, materials, deposition, manufacturing, properties and applications of TCO.
The tutorial explains doping and conductivity in Transparent Conductive Oxides (TCO) including, indium tin oxide (ITO), indium zinc oxide (IZO), and zinc oxide with various dopants, particularly aluminum (AZO) and gallium (GZO). Other alternative TCO, e.g., SnO2:F and IGZO, are included in examples. TCO deposition by magnetron sputtering is emphasized, although other methods, e.g., evaporation, CVD/pyrolysis and Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) are briefly described, but can be expanded based upon class interest. Specific examples of the TCO Optical/Electrical (O/E) properties achieved with various processes are shown. Developing a robust deposition process for TCO is explained. The importance of substrate temperature and the effect of post-deposition processing also are discussed. TCO properties achieved with high temperature processes, e.g., on glass substrates, and low temperature processes, e.g., roll-to-roll on flexible plastic substrates, are compared and the large differences explained. Designing and engineering of TCO O/E properties for specific applications by controlling deposition process parameters are explained. Many application examples are presented.
