What it is

General reference — not yet source-verified

The Hitachi Kokusai KV J 888 is a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) system used in semiconductor manufacturing. The system is designed for depositing thin films onto substrates through chemical reactions of precursor gases.

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Chemical vapor deposition systems operate by introducing one or more volatile precursor gases into a reaction chamber where they decompose and react on the heated wafer surface to form a solid thin film. The reaction can be thermally driven or plasma-enhanced, depending on the specific process requirements. Byproducts and excess gases are removed from the chamber through a vacuum or exhaust system.
