The tungsten chemical vapor deposition (WCVD) is a key process to fabricate
reliable contacts, and interconnects in manufacturing semiconductor devices.
In the CVD process, tungsten is deposited by hydrogen reduction of WF6.
Fluent's CFD software provides a fast way to optimize the hardware by
combining accurate transport and chemical kinetics models.
