In situ spectroscopic ellipsometry as a versatile tool for studying atomic layer deposition
E Erik Langereis,Sbs Stephan Heil,Hcm Harm Knoops,W. Keuning,van de Mcm Richard Sanden,Wmm Erwin Kessels +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the application of in situ spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE) during thin film synthesis by atomic layer deposition (ALD) is reviewed and the versatility of this all-optical diagnostic is demonstrated by results obtained on Al2O3, HfO2, Er2O 3, TiO 2, Ta2O5, TiN and TaNx films with thickness ranges from 0.1 to 100nm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical emission spectroscopy as a tool for studying, optimizing, and monitoring plasma-assisted atomic layer deposition processes
Ajm Adrie Mackus,Sbs Stephan Heil,E Erik Langereis,Hcm Harm Knoops,van de Mcm Richard Sanden,Wmm Erwin Kessels +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that optical emission spectroscopy (OES) is an easy-to-implement and valuable tool to study, optimize and monitor thin film growth by plasma-assisted atomic layer deposition (ALD).
Journal ArticleDOI
Conformality of Plasma-Assisted ALD: Physical Processes and Modeling
TL;DR: In this article, the physical processes in plasma-assisted ALD affecting conformality were identified and investigated through Monte Carlo simulations, where the conformality was dictated by the recombination probability r, the reaction probability s, and the diffusion rate of particles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atomic layer deposition for nanostructured Li-ion batteries
Hcm Harm Knoops,ME Merijn Donders,van de Mcm Richard Sanden,Phl Peter Notten,Wmm Erwin Kessels +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the potential of atomic layer deposition (ALD) for nanostructured Li-ion batteries has been discussed for three battery concepts: particle-based electrodes, 3D-structured electrodes, and 3D all-solid-state microbatteries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atomic Layer Etching: What Can We Learn from Atomic Layer Deposition?
TL;DR: In this article, the key defining characteristics of atomic layer etching are identified, such as cyclic step-wise processing, self-limiting surface chemistry, and repeated removal of atomic layers (not necessarily a full monolayer).
