Hi Tim, Our company can provide this foundry service (thick Aluminum films). We have done 7 micron thick Aluminum (PVD) without any stress nor adhesion issues. The maximum for our system is probably close to 12 microns. If you would like a quote, let me know how many and what size wafers, as well as the thickness you would like for us to target. Best Regards, Neal Ricks Wafer Fab Manager Shipley Co. LLC 540.552.4610x3875 tdv218@hecky.it.northwestern.edu wrote:Hi all. I am trying to find a company that either supplies silicon wafers coated with a thick film of aluminum (2-10 micron) or one that will do electroplating and chemical-mechanical polishing to achieve a thick aluminum film with surface roughness minimized. All the aluminum plated wafers I've found have had very thin films ( Thank you.
