ONTOS
ONTOS is an atmospheric plasma system for surface preparation. Our patented equipment and processes provide unique advantages to our customers. Key benefits of our atmospheric plasma tools include:
- Low-cost, high yield, high-speed, chip-to-chip interconnect bonds at room temperature with minimal force
- Better surface activation for direct bonding, aqueous wetting, contamination removal, and adhesive bonding
Features
- Chip/wafer is scanned under compact process head
- Plasma-Head selection: 25mm, 40mm or 100mm wide (rastered)
- Typical scan rate: 1-5 mm/sec
- Process runs in room ambient
- Programmable control of plasma and scan parameters
- Easy touch-screen controller
- Vacuum chuck handles small chips to 8” wafers. (or 12″ wafer with the 300mm)
- Typical power to internal plasma source: 60-100 Watts
- CE certified (by independent third party)
- Made in U.S.A.
ONTOS Atmospheric Plasma Solutions
Semiautomated system for Surface Preparation using a patented Atmospheric Plasma with a unique design enabling, without any modification, oxidizing or reducing chemistry.
