Indigenous thin film tech deposition equipment from India's HHV

While India lacks semiconductor fab plants, its good to know a Bangalore based semiconductor related manufacturing equipment company called Hind High Vacuum Co. Pvt. Ltd. (HHV) has developed a unique thin film technology solution for the nuclear energy sector. This cluster type thin film deposition system is indigenously developed out of its Bangalore facility is successfully installed at customer site, a leading nuclear research centre in India. This thin film deposition system is used to deposit a stack of multi-layer thin film coatings to fabricate miniaturised, solid state boron carbide sensors which are used in the nuclear energy field. HHV design, develop and manufacture off-the-shelf and customized equipment and products in the fields of Vacuum Technology, Solar Photovoltaic and Thin Films Technology, which is extensively used in semiconductor manufacturing. “HHV has been committed to serving the scientific and industrial community in optics and thin films with its five decades of expertise in engineering and thin film deposition process development” said Mr Prasanth Sakhamuri, Managing Director, HHV. “The development of this unique cluster type, multi-purpose, versatile, thin film deposition tool with plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD), sputtering process chambers and a specially designed sublimation system, is yet another demonstration of ou...
