What it is

The YES PBV-300 is an automated vacuum cure oven designed for semiconductor wafer processing.[3][4][1][2]

The PBV-300 supports wafer sizes of 300mm and 200mm.[3][4][1][2]

How it works

The PBV-300 is a vacuum bake system that processes wafers under low pressure for thermal treatment.[3][2]

The system operates with automated wafer handling, allowing loading and unloading of cassettes without manual intervention.[4][2]

Where it fits in the process flow

The PBV-300 is used in wafer fabrication after coating steps to cure polyimide or BCB layers, and after metal deposition for copper anneal.[3][4][2]

The PBV-300 processes wafers after the application of polyimide, BCB, low-k dielectrics, or copper layers, before subsequent metallization or packaging steps.[4][2]

Applications

The PBV-300 is used for polyimide cure, BCB cure, copper anneal, and low-k dielectric processing.[3][4][2]

  • polyimide cure
  • BCB cure
  • copper anneal
  • low-k dielectric processing
