Abstract

See full text

Atomic layer deposition apparatus for depositing a film in a continuous fashion. The apparatus includes a process tunnel, extending in a transport direction and bounded by at least a first and a second wall. The walls are mutually parallel and allow a flat substrate to be accommodated there between. The apparatus further includes a transport system for moving a train of substrates or a continuous substrate in tape form, through the tunnel. At least the first wall of the process tunnel is provided with a plurality of gas injection channels that, viewed in the transport direction, are connected successively to a first precursor gas source, a purge gas source, a second precursor gas source and a purge gas source respectively, so as to create a tunnel segment that—in use—comprises successive zones containing a first precursor gas, a purge gas, a second precursor gas and a purge gas, respectively.
