    THE DELIVERABLES

    4D LABS at Simon Fraser University is acquiring infrastructure to enable further development of quantum- and microsystems-based technologies. In particular, they are seeking the following:
     
    • PECVD (Plasma-Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) system for deposition of silicon-based materials.
    • ICP-RIE (Inductively Coupled Plasma Reactive Ion Etching) system for etching of metals.

    The tools will be housed in a class 100 Clean Room facility, alongside a variety of micro- and nanofabrication equipment.

    Key requirements for the systems:
    • Designed for low-to-medium scale research and development.
    • Flexible systems to allow for a wide range of materials to be used.
    • Suitable for a multi-user facility with low service requirements.
    • Simple to operate.

    Please include the following instrument requirements in the proposal:
    • Floor loading.
    • Electrical power supply (e.g., 208V or 120V).
    • Cooling (including pressure, flow, and heat load).
    • Exhaust.
    • Gases.


    PECVD/ ICP-RIE Requirements:

    Mandatory Specifications for PECVD and ICP-RIE 

    There is a basic configuration and performance specification that are mandatory. The proponent is to provide a quote for each item with these specifications in Appendix C – Rate Bid Form.

    Optional Specifications for PECVD and ICP-RIE:
    • Includes additional features or capabilities that are desirable.
    • Will be considered in the value-added section.
