What it is

The Applied Materials C 3 Dual Altus is a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) system.[1]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Chemical vapor deposition systems introduce precursor gases into a reaction chamber where they adsorb onto a heated wafer surface. A chemical reaction forms a solid thin film while volatile byproducts are removed. The Applied Materials C 3 Dual Altus operates on this principle.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

In semiconductor fabrication, deposition tools follow cleaning and surface preparation steps and precede patterning and etching processes. CVD systems are commonly used for depositing interlayer dielectrics, barrier layers, and conductive films. The C 3 Dual Altus would be located in the deposition area of a fab, handling wafers that require thin film growth.
