    摘要: An air conditioning system for a semiconductor clean room includes a chemical filter between an air conditioner including a humidifier and a ULPA filter of the clean room, for ionizing chemical impurities using moisture supplied from the humidifier and then adsorbing the ionized chemical impurities by using the chemical filter. The chemical filter is installed downstream of the humidifier, which applies phosphoric acid for the prevention of scale-formation. This downstream location allows the chemical filter to prevent the phosphoric acid from being included in the fresh air as a new chemical impurity, which makes regulation of temperature and humidity of the air possible without having to use a special and expensive pure steam system.

    摘要: Provided is an exhaust unit capable of preventing large pressure fluctuations within a process chamber due to atmospheric pressure changes. The exhaust unit includes a main exhaust duct and a supplemental exhaust duct that acts as a partial bypass. A flap is located at a downstream opening between the main exhaust duct and supplemental exhaust duct and controls the amount of bypassed gas flowing from the supplemental exhaust duct to the main exhaust duct. First and second plates of the flap are pivotally coupled to the main exhaust duct adjacent the downstream opening, the first plate colliding with gas flowing through the main exhaust duct and the second plate partially blocking bypassed gas flowing back into the main exhaust duct from the supplemental exhaust duct. When gas is exhausted through the main exhaust line and the supplemental exhaust duct, the flap passively controls the amount by which the supplemental exhaust duct is opened through fluctuations in atmospheric pressure.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for exhaust control. The apparatus may include a vessel to accommodate a gas flow of a gas, a sensor mounted on the vessel to sense a direction of the gas flow in the vessel, a conduit coupled to the vessel to exhaust the gas from the vessel, and a control unit that adjusts a flow rate of the gas through the conduit based on the direction of the gas flow in vessel sensed by the sensor. The method may include providing a gas flow of a gas in a vessel, sensing a direction of the gas flow in the vessel, exhausting the gas from the vessel at an exhaust flow rate, and adjusting the exhaust flow rate based on the sensed direction of the gas flow in the vessel.

    摘要: A management system and method of a reticle in an exposing process are disclosed. A calculator calculates an accumulated dosage of an illuminating light irradiated onto a reticle used in a photolithography process. The calculator is connected to an exposing apparatus to expose photoresist on a semiconductor substrate. A comparator compares the calculated accumulated dosage with a preset reference dosage. When the calculated accumulated dosage is greater than or equal to the reference dosage, a controller suspends the photolithography process. Minimizing haze contamination on the reticle, thus preventing process failures.
