• CPV31712100 — Microelectronic machinery and apparatus

Lots

• The Institute of Photonics is seeking to complement their cleanroom micro-fabrication facility equipment with an Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) system. It is envisioned that the equipment will form atomic-scale precision deposition of oxide materials that will include but not be limited to: 1 Hafnium Oxide (HfO2) 2 Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) The equipment will be used to to advance scientific investigation in neuro-technology and operated by PhD students, Postdoctoral Research Associates and Technicians within the Institute of Photonics. The Contracting Authority anticipates that the contract will be for a duration of twenty (24) months. The Contracting Authority requires a supplier that can fulfil the below non-exhaustive list of requirements: 1 Thermally activated monolayer oxide deposition 2 HfO2 and SiO2 oxides deposition with added capability for Titania (TiO2) and Alumina (AlO3) 3 Capability to expand the range of deposited material 4 High variety of film stacking capability 5 Highly conformal and uniform deposition including in recesses 6 The capability for system update to future-proof the system usage Please refer to the full list of requirements and tender documentation available via PCST.Value not stated
