WARNING
BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH ANY MAINTENANCE WORK, READ SECTION 1 - HEALTH AND SAFETY.
The etch cleaning should be performed each time the aggregate of the deposition layers
reaches ~10 microns.
The recommended clean process is:
CF
4
/O
2
8% or 20%, 700mTorr, 200W, ≥30 minutes
This process is optimised for rapid electrode cleaning. If it is found that the cleaning rate of
the chamber walls is too slow with the above process, then a low pressure process can also be
used:
CF
4
/O
2
8% or 20%, 350mTorr, 200W, ≥ 30minutes
The two processes can be alternated until the chamber and electrodes are etched clean.
A chamber conditioning step (using the normal deposition conditions in the empty chamber
to deposit 0.2-0.5µm) is recommended before processing wafers.

WARNING
BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY MAINTENANCE WORK ON THE PROCESS CHAMBER, IT
MUST BE SUBJECTED TO AT LEAST TWO VENT CYCLES SUBSEQUENT TO A
PROCESSING RUN.

1) Visually examine the interior of the chamber for contamination. Any necessary
cleaning should be carried out using a lint-free cloth moistened with Isopropyl
Alcohol (IPA). Tougher deposits can be removed using an abrasive pad first.
WARNING
ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL IS HIGHLY INFLAMMABLE (FLAMMABLE). DO NOT USE IT
NEAR A NAKED FLAME OR ENERGISED ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT.
Examine the exterior of the chamber and its fittings for damage.
Examine the lid and seals for any damage or deterioration.
Examine the heating/cooling water flow system for signs of leakage.
Purge the process chamber for thirty minutes with dry nitrogen if IPA has been used for
cleaning.
Visually examine the top electrode for contamination. Any necessary cleaning should be
carried out using a lint-free cloth moistened with Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA).
Examine the top electrode and its integral gas and water fittings for damage.
Examine the seals for signs of deterioration.
SKRKO= lJêáåÖë=
The O-rings should be checked monthly but replaced as and when necessary.
Replacement O-rings should be constructed of Viton and pre-baked to 150°C to minimise the
risk of water vapour from the O-rings. The chamber lid O-ring should not need to be removed
unless it leaks. Clean the O-ring in situ using a lint-free cloth wetted with Isopropyl Alcohol.
To change the lid O-ring (use gloves):
1) Remove the O-ring, being careful not to damage the retaining groove.
2) Use a lint-free cloth and IPA to clean the O-ring sealing face on the chamber.
3) The new O-ring, cleaned with IPA, should be inserted with no twists. Stretch the O-
ring evenly as it is inserted to avoid local regions of stretching.

Carefully inspect gas inlet showerhead plates for signs of plasma concentrating in a
hole and enlarging the hole.
3) Examine the seal for signs of incipient deterioration.
