Applied Materials, Inc. announced its breakthrough Applied Producer Eterna FCVD (Flowable CVD1) system, the first and only film deposition technology capable of electrically isolating the densely-packed transistors in 20nm-and-below memory and logic chip designs with a high-quality dielectric film. The gaps between these transistors can have aspect ratios of more than 30:1 – five times higher than current requirements – and highly-complex profiles. The Eterna FCVD system’s unique process com...
