摘要:
A thermally conductive sheet is used between a mounting table for mounting thereon a target substrate and an annular focus ring mounted on the mounting table to surround a circumferential peripheral portion of the target substrate. Further, the mounting table includes therein a cooling unit and is disposed in a depressurized accommodating chamber for accommodating therein the target substrate. The thermally conductive sheet has a non-adhesive layer on each of one or more surfaces thereof.

A focus ring heat transfer method improves heat transfer of a focus ring arranged in an outer peripheral portion of a mounting surface of a mounting table adapted to mount a target substrate in a chamber. The method includes steps of: disposing a heat transfer sheet between the focus ring and the mounting table; and vacuum-evacuating the chamber prior to processing the target substrate and then restoring the pressure the inside of the chamber to an atmospheric pressure or a light vacuum pressure. Therefore, air present in a fine gap between the heat transfer sheet and the mounting surface is removed to allow the heat transfer sheet to adhere to the mounting surface.

In a plasma processing apparatus for performing a plasma process on a target substrate, a baffle plate has an opening through which the process passes and partitions the internal space of the processing container into a plasma process space and an exhaust space, the opening being a single continuous slit. The baffle plate is disposed in an annular gas exhaust path around the mounting table, and the slit includes a plurality of linear slit portions extending in a radial direction of the annular baffle plate and a plurality of curved slit portions, each of which interconnects ends of a pair of the adjacent linear slit portions, so that the slit is formed in a wave shape in its entirety.

A substrate mounting table of a substrate processing apparatus includes a base portion and a circular plate-shaped electrostatic chuck adhered to an upper surface of the base portion by an adhesive layer. The electrostatic chuck has a circular attracting surface to support a substrate. The substrate mounting table further includes an annular focus ring arranged around the electrostatic chuck to surround the substrate and to cover an outer peripheral portion of the upper surface of the base portion. The electrostatic chuck has a two-layer structure including an upper circular part and a lower circular part having a diameter larger than that of the upper circular part. An outer peripheral portion of the lower circular part and an outer peripheral portion of the adhesive layer adhering the lower circular part to the base portion are covered with the focus ring.

Disclosed is a substrate processing apparatus capable of suppressing generation of plasma in the space between a moving electrode and an end wall at one side of a cylindrical chamber. The substrate processing apparatus includes a cylindrical chamber to receive a wafer, a shower head movable along a central axis of the chamber inside the chamber, a susceptor opposing the shower head in the chamber, and a flexible bellows connecting the shower head to a cover of the chamber, wherein a high frequency power is applied to a processing space presented between the shower head and the susceptor, processing gas is introduced into the processing space, the shower head and the side wall of the chamber are non-contact to each other, and a bypass member is installed electrically connecting the shower head and the cover or the side wall of the chamber.

A paper handling apparatus has a simplified structure and allows printed paper to be stacked efficiently. The paper handling apparatus receives printed paper which has undergone printing for each print job and handles the printed paper in an orderly manner. The paper handling apparatus has a stacking section in which printed paper is stacked sequentially for a plurality of jobs and an unloading mechanism for unloading stacked printed paper from the stacking section to the outside. The paper handling apparatus can be used with a printing apparatus which is connected to a large-scale information processing system or similar for printing a large volume of data.

A cylinder bore wall insulating member has a contact surface that comes in contact with a wall surface of a cylinder bore wall that forms a cylinder block of an internal combustion engine and defines a groove-like coolant passage. An internal combustion engine in which the cylinder bore wall has a uniform temperature may be obtained using the insulating member.
