FPD Plasma Etch/Ash

Satisfying Customer’s Needs with Overwhelming Uniformity and Productivity

FPD Plasma Etch/Ash systems generate plasma in its vacuum chamber to etch thin-film and make electric circuits on large-area glass substrates. Our systems contribute to manufacturing liquid crystal displays (LCDs) or organic light-emitting diode displays (OLEDs) on Gen6/Gen8/Gen10.5 substrate. Since display devices get higher resolution and higher performance, FPD manufacturing increases complexity. In this background, FPD customers select TEL FPD Plasma Etch/Ash systems, which meet their requirements.

Betelex™

Betelex™ is a multi-chamber plasma etching and ashing system for 6-8 generation substrates. Today, to manufacture high-resolution and high-performance displays, the TFT process must become more complex, and higher productivity is required for plasma etch systems.
Betelex™ supports up to 5 process chambers and realize significantly higher productivity with smaller footprint and facility cost.
Betelex™ can also combine multi-process steps in separated chambers and contribute a sophisticated, up-to-date manufacturing process.
Betelex™ can be applied to etch processes on LTPS (Low-Temperature Poly-Silicon) or oxide semiconductor devices; metal layer (Al, Mo) etch, an insulator layer (SiOx, SiNx) etch, polysilicon layer etch or PR ash.

Features
Multi-chamber system: Maximum 5 chambers
Main Chamber mode: PICP™ mode
Main Substrate size:1,500mm x 1,850mm, 2,290mm x 2,620mm

Impressio™

Impressio™ is a multi-chamber Plasma Etch/Ash system supporting Gen 8-10.5 substrates for various applications, small/medium displays for smartphones, and large displays for TVs.
Impressio™ series can be applied to etch processes on LTPS (Low-Temperature Poly-Silicon) devices, oxide semiconductor devices, and amorphous silicon devices; metal layer (Al, Mo) etch, an insulator layer (SiOx, SiNx) etch, silicon layer etch or PR ash.
