The transfer member comprising a pair of horizontally divergent walls configured to spread the gas in a horizontal direction before entering the gas inlet.
摘要:
A method and system is described for introducing chemistry into a high pressure fluid for treating a substrate. In particular, the method includes dispersing the chemistry throughout the volume of high pressure fluid in order to promote mixing of the two or more fluids, while the high pressure fluid is circulating through a high pressure processing system.

A method and system for controlling a velocity field in a processing system is described. In an exemplary embodiment described, the system includes a multi-outlet exhaust manifold having three or more outlets coupled to the processing system adjacent a surface of a substrate to be process. The three or more outlets are located adjacent the substrate in order to provide for a uniform flow of fluid above the surface of the substrate. Additionally, the flow of fluid through the three or more outlets is cyclically and sequentially alternated.

摘要:
A method and system for providing a homogeneous processing environment in a high pressure processing system is described. A high pressure fluid and a process chemistry are mixed in a pre-mixing system prior to exposure with the fluid in a supercritical state of a substrate in the high pressure processing system. For example, the pre-mixing system can include a fluid circulation system configured to bypass the high pressure processing system until the high pressure fluid and the process chemistry are mixed. Alternatively, the pre-mixing system can include a mixing chamber, and optionally include means for agitating the high pressure fluid and process chemistry in the mixing chamber.
摘要:
A processing system utilizing a supercritical fluid for treating a substrate is described as having internal members having a coating and coated internal members for such a system, with the coating prestressed to reduce the problem of generating coating stresses during processing. For example, the coating in internal members can reduce particulate contamination during processing. Additionally, a method for applying the coating to the internal member of the processing system is described, whereby stresses within the coating are relieved in the coating when the part is used in high pressure processing. The method is particularly useful for preventing or reducing high tensile stresses in coatings during high pressure processing.
