The GFC-S combines Pivotal's patented, high accuracy GFM™ system with its patented control valve technology making the GFC-S the fastest, most accurate, most reliable mass flow controller on the market. The GFC-S is also calibration and maintenance free, increasing your fab productivity, gas savings, and reducing environmental impact!
As process geometries within the semiconductor industry continue to shrink to 2nm and beyond, the need for highly accurate, responsive and repeatable gas flow control during wafer processing is essential. With the emergence of low gas flow rates, short processing times and continuous plasma processing, best-in-class MFCs are struggling to meet the accuracy, settling time and repeatability requirements demanded to ensure high yield and matched chambers.
Pivotal Systems’ GFC-S paves the way for the future of gas flow control. The GFC combines Pivotal's patented, high accuracy GFM™ system with patented control valve technology. As such, it leapfrogs the current MFC technology by offering an order of magnitude improvement on key flow metrics, thereby enabling advanced wafer-manufacturing processes.
