The team is developping innovative plasma etching and deposition processes with the objective to meet the technological needs of emerging nano- and opto-electronic devices.
To this end, we study the basic mechanisms involved in plasma processes by combining plasma analyses, process simulation/modelling and characterization of plasma/surface interactions. The strength of our research lies in the ability to develop plasma processes on 200-300mm substrates in state-of-the-art industrial etching reactors. All the process breakthroughs are directly transferable to our industrial partners (STMicroelectronics, AMAT).
