摘要:
A cleaning process for recovering an anodized aluminum part is particularly useful when the part has been exposed to a fluorine-containing plasma in etch reactor. The part is bathed in an agitated solution of a fluoride acid, such as ammonium fluoride, which converts aluminum fluoride to a soluble fluoride. The part is rinsed in water. The pores of the cleaned anodization may be resealed by a submerging the part in hot agitated deionized water.

摘要:
Embodiments of the invention provide a robust bonding material suitable for joining semiconductor processing chamber components. Other embodiments provide semiconductor processing chamber components joined using a bonding material having metal filler disposed in an adhesive layer. Other embodiments include methods for manufacturing a semiconductor processing chamber component having a bonding material that includes metal filled disposed in an adhesive layer. The metal filler is suitable for reacting with halogen containing plasmas such that a halogen based metal layer is formed on the exposed portion of the bonding material upon exposure to the plasma.

Disclosed herein is a gas distribution plate for use in a gas distribution assembly for a processing chamber, where the gas distribution plate is fabricated from a solid yttrium oxide-comprising substrate, which may also include aluminum oxide. The gas distribution plate includes a plurality of through-holes, which are typically crescent-shaped. Through-holes which have been formed in the solid yttrium oxide-comprising substrate by ultrasonic drilling perform particularly well. The solid yttrium oxide-comprising substrate typically comprises at least 99.9% yttrium oxide, and has a density of at least 4.92 g/cm3, a water absorbency of about 0.02% or less, and an average grain size within the range of about 10 μm to about 25 μm. Also disclosed herein are methods for fabricating and cleaning the yttrium oxide-comprising gas distribution plate.
