摘要:
The invention includes deposition apparatuses configured to monitor the temperature of a semiconductor wafer substrate by utilizing conduits which channel radiation from the substrate to a detector/signal processor system. In particular aspects, the temperature of the substrate can be measured while the substrate is spinning within a reaction chamber. The invention also includes deposition apparatuses in which flow of mixed gases is controlled by mass flow controllers provided downstream of the location where the gases are mixed and/or where flow of gases is measured with mass flow measurement devices provided downstream of the location where the gases are mixed. Additionally, the invention encompasses deposition apparatuses in which mass flow controllers and/or mass flow measurement devices are provided upstream of a header which splits a source gas into multiple paths directed toward multiple different reaction chambers.

This invention includes substrate susceptors which receive substrates to be deposited upon. In one implementation, a substrate susceptor includes a body having a substrate receiving side. The substrate receiving side has a face having a substrate receiving recess formed therein. The recess has an outer peripheral sidewall. At least three projections extend outwardly from a portion of the face. The projections respectively comprise a radially inner sidewall which extends outwardly from the recess outer peripheral sidewall to a projection upper surface. Other aspects and implementations are contemplated.

Reactors having gas distributors for depositing materials onto micro-device workpieces, systems that include such reactors, and methods for depositing materials onto micro-device workpieces are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a reactor for depositing materials onto a micro-device workpiece includes a reaction chamber, a passageway, and a door assembly. The reaction chamber includes a gas distributor configured to provide a flow of gas(es) to a micro-device workpiece on a workpiece holder. The passageway, which has a first end open to the reaction chamber and a second end apart from the reaction chamber, is configured to provide ingression to and egression from the chamber for processing the micro-device workpiece. The door assembly is configured to open and sealably close a door at the second end of the passageway. A gas conditioning system positioned in the door is configured to maintain a desired concentration and phase of gas constituents in the passageway.

A semiconductor substrate processor includes a substrate transfer chamber and a plurality of substrate processing chambers connected therewith. An interfacial structure is received between at least one of the processing chambers and the transfer chamber. The interfacial structure includes a substantially non-metallic, thermally insulative mass of material interposed between the one processing chamber and the transfer chamber. The mass is of sufficient volume to effectively reduce heat transfer from the processing chamber to the transfer chamber than would otherwise occur in the absence of said mass of material. An interfacial structure includes a body having a substrate passageway extending therethrough. The passageway includes walls at least a portion of which are substantially metallic. The body includes material peripheral of the walls which is substantially non-metallic and thermally insulative. The substantially non-metallic material has mounting openings extending at least partially therein.
