    摘要: A batch of wafer substrates is provided with each wafer substrate having a surface. Each surface is coated with a layer of material applied simultaneously to the surface of each of the batch of wafer substrates. The layer of material is applied to a thickness that varies less than four thickness percent across the surface and exclusive of an edge boundary and having a wafer-to-wafer thickness variation of less than three percent. The layer of material so applied is a silicon oxide, silicon nitride or silicon oxynitride with the layer of material being devoid of carbon and chlorine. Formation of silicon oxide or a silicon oxynitride requires the inclusion of a co-reactant. Silicon nitride is also formed with the inclusion of a nitrification co-reactant. A process for forming such a batch of wafer substrates involves feeding the precursor into a reactor containing a batch of wafer substrates and reacting the precursor at a wafer substrate temperature, total pressure, and precursor flow rate sufficient to create such a layer of material. The delivery of a precursor and co-reactant as needed through vertical tube injectors having multiple orifices with at least one orifice in registry with each of the batch of wafer substrates and exit slits within the reactor to create flow across the surface of each of the wafer substrates in the batch provides the within-wafer and wafer-to-wafer uniformity.

    摘要: An apparatus for heat treatment of a wafer is disclosed. The apparatus includes a heating chamber having a heat source. A cooling chamber is positioned adjacent to the heating chamber and includes a cooling source. A wafer holder is configured to move between the cooling chamber and the heating chamber through a passageway and one or more shutters defines the size of the passageway. The one or more shutters are movable between an open position where the wafer holder can pass through the passageway and an obstructing position which defines a passageway which is smaller than the passageway defined when the shutter is in the open position.

    摘要: A process for radical assisted film deposition simultaneously on multiple wafer substrates is provided. The multiple wafer substrates are loaded into a reactor that is heated to a desired film deposition temperature. A stable species source of oxide or nitride counter ion is introduced into the reactor. An in situ radical generating reactant is also introduced into the reactor along with a cationic ion deposition source. The cationic ion deposition source is introduced for a time sufficient to deposit a cationic ion-oxide or a cationic ion-nitride film simultaneously on multiple wafer substrates. Deposition temperature is below a conventional chemical vapor deposition temperature absent the in situ radical generating reactant. A high degree of wafer-to-wafer uniformity among the multiple wafer substrates is obtained by introducing the reactants through elongated vertical tube injectors having vertically displaced orifices, injectors surrounded by a liner having vertically displaced exhaust ports to impart across flow of movement of reactants simultaneously across the multiple wafer substrates. With molecular oxygen as a stable species source of oxide, and hydrogen as the in situ radical generating reactant, oxide films of silicon are readily produced with a silicon-containing precursor introduced into the reactor.
