Encapsulix
Encapsulix is a French company specializing in advanced thin film deposition technologies, including Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) and Plasma-Enhanced ALD (PEALD). Founded in 2011, the company provides equipment for various applications in microelectronics, optics, and more.
History
Encapsulix was established with the aim of advancing thin film deposition technologies. The company has since developed a reputation for its innovative approaches in ALD technology and has been involved in numerous industry projects and collaborations.
Technology
Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) Atomic Layer Deposition is a technique used to deposit thin films one atomic layer at a time. This method allows for precise control of film thickness and composition, making it ideal for applications requiring high precision and uniformity.
Plasma-Enhanced ALD (PEALD)
Plasma-Enhanced ALD is an extension of the ALD process that uses plasma to enhance the chemical reactions involved. This technique allows for the deposition of films at lower temperatures and with improved film properties.
Technique
The traditional drawback of ALD is that the deposition rate is relatively slow in comparison to other deposition methods[1]. The key innovation of Encapsulix is to introduce a reactor architecture based on computational fluid dynamics which allows to speed up the process by a factor of 20 to 50. The resulting gain in productivity enables the application of the technology in a wide variety of applications which were hitherto economically infeasible.
Applications
Encapsulix offers a range of products and services, including: ALD Equipment: Custom-designed systems for various industrial and research applications. Consulting Services: Expert advice on the implementation and optimization of ALD processes. Research and Development: Collaboration on advanced R&D projects to develop new ALD technologies and applications.
