摘要: A system and methods for heating substrates during high temperature processing is provided. The system uses multiple temperature inputs of the backside of a substrate carrier and known parameters within the processing chamber to estimate the temperature of substrates being processed on the substrate carrier. Temperature readings of the substrate carrier taken from above the processing volume may be used to correct any drift that may occur with respect to temperature readings taken from below the substrate carrier. Temperature readings of heat exchanging fluid flowing through a showerhead assembly may be used to estimate the temperature of the surface of the showerhead, which may be used in the estimation of the temperature of the substrates being processed. The system then uses the estimated temperature to control the amount of power supplied to a plurality of heat sources configured to heat the substrates from below the substrate carrier.

摘要: Methods of processing a substrate in a PVD chamber comprising a target, a substrate and a process gas at a pressure sufficient to cause ionization of a substantial portion of species sputtered from the target are described. A capacitively coupled high density plasma is maintained by applying very high frequency power to the target. Sputtered material is ionized in the plasma and accelerated toward the substrate by a high frequency bias power applied to the substrate. The microstructure of the resultant film is controlled by modifying one or more of the pressure and the high frequency bias power.

摘要: Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to a hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) apparatus that utilizes a high temperature gas distribution device and plasma generation to form an activated precursor gas used to rapidly form a high quality compound nitride layer on a surface of a substrate. In one embodiment, plasma is formed from a nitrogen containing precursor within a gas distribution device prior to injection into a processing region of the HVPE apparatus. In another embodiment, plasma is formed from a nitrogen containing precursor within the processing region by using the gas distribution device as an electrode for forming the plasma in the processing region. In each embodiment, a second precursor gas may be separately introduced into the processing region of the HVPE apparatus through the gas distribution device without mixing with the nitrogen containing precursor prior to entering the processing region.
