Subject syllabus:
Laboratory training include preparation of thin films of dielectrics, semiconductors, and metals and master of lithographic processes. It is based on the particular items:
1. Preparation of thin films by physical vapor deposition processes (PVD) – including processes of magnetron sputtering and evaporation, control of vacuum system, and computer control of the processes
2. Lithographic process including preparation of photoresist using spin coating, input and exposition of the structure using laser lithograph, development and finalization of the lithographic process
3. Characterization of the prepared samples using ex-situ methods – ellipsometry, spectroscopy, optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), electron microscopy
