1. Material growth and preparation
The growth of monocrystalline and polycrystalline silicon: CVD furnace is one of the main equipment for growing monocrystalline and polycrystalline silicon in semiconductor device manufacturing.
By precisely controlling parameters such as reaction gas, temperature, pressure, and deposition time, high-quality single crystal layers can be formed on the surface of the wafer, providing a fundamental material for subsequent semiconductor device manufacturing.
The growth of other semiconductor materials: In addition to silicon, CVD furnaces can also be used to grow other semiconductor materials, such as silicon carbide (SiC), gallium nitride (GaN), etc. These materials have high performance advantages in specific application areas, such as high hardness, high thermal conductivity, and high wear resistance, thus playing a significant role in semiconductor device manufacturing.
2. Thin film deposition
Insulation layer deposition: CVD furnace is used to deposit insulation layer materials such as silicon dioxide (SiO ₂) and silicon nitride (Si ₂ N ₄). These insulation layers play a role in electrical insulation, protection, and passivation in semiconductor devices, which is important for improving device performance and reliability.
Metal layer deposition: The deposition of metal layers such as tungsten (W), titanium (Ti), titanium nitride (TiN), and aluminum (Al) is also an important application of CVD furnaces. These metal layers are used for interconnection and contact hole filling in semiconductor devices, and play a significant role in achieving electrical connections and signal transmission of the devices.
Doping layer deposition: The deposition of doping layers such as phosphorus silicon glass (PSG) and borosilicate glass (BSG) is also one of the applications of CVD furnaces. These doping layers are used for local doping and surface passivation to adjust the electrical properties of semiconductor materials.
3. Special functional layer deposition
Barrier layer deposition: The deposition of barrier layers such as titanium nitride (TiN) and tantalum nitride (TaN) is another important application of CVD furnaces in semiconductor manufacturing. These barrier layers serve as diffusion barriers for copper interconnects, preventing metal diffusion and improving device reliability and stability.
Lining layer deposition: CVD furnaces are also used to deposit lining layer materials to improve interface quality, improve the uniformity and adhesion of subsequent film deposition. This plays a crucial role in achieving high-quality and highly reliable semiconductor devices.
Hard mask layer deposition: The deposition of hard mask layers such as silicon nitride (Si ₂ N ₄) and silicon oxide (SiO ₂) is also one of the applications of CVD furnaces. These hard mask layers provide high-resolution pattern transfer and etching protection in lithography processes, ensuring the manufacturing accuracy and performance of semiconductor devices.

4. Photovoltaic cells and LED manufacturing
Photovoltaic cell manufacturing: CVD furnaces are used to manufacture thin film solar cells, such as silicon films and compound semiconductor films (such as CdTe and CIGS). By precisely controlling the reaction conditions, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of photovoltaic cells can be improved and manufacturing costs can be reduced.
LED and Laser Manufacturing: CVD furnaces are also used for depositing gallium nitride (GaN) and other III-V compound semiconductor materials to manufacture efficient light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and lasers. These devices have a wide range of applications in lighting, display, communication, and other fields.
5. Other applications
Manufacturing of Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS): CVD furnaces are used for depositing materials such as polycrystalline silicon and silicon oxide, manufacturing micro mechanical structures and sensors. These microelectromechanical systems have wide applications in fields such as biomedicine, automotive electronics, and aerospace.
Gas sensor manufacturing: For example, metal oxide semiconductor gas sensors, sensitive films are deposited through CVD furnaces to achieve high sensitivity detection. This plays an important role in areas such as environmental monitoring and industrial control.
Manufacturing of 3D Integrated Circuits (3D ICs): CVD furnaces are used to deposit high-quality insulation layers and metal filling materials, and to manufacture interconnections of 3D integrated circuits through silicon via (TSV). This helps to improve the integration and performance of integrated circuits.
