    摘要: A processing apparatus and method for edge-preferential processing of partially fabricated integrated circuit wafers or of other substantially flat and thin workpieces. A plasma remote from the workpiece is used to generate activated species, and a baffle which is in proximity to the wafer face but not in contact with it is used to direct the stream of activated species. This module can be set up to perform both edge bead removal and bake of spun-on photoresist.

    摘要: A process module which is compatible with a system using vacuum wafer transport in which wafers are generally transported and processed in a face down position under vacuum, and which also includes an additional wafer movement, wherein, after a wafer has been emplaced face down, in a position where it can be clamped against the susceptor, the susceptor is rotated from its approximately horizontal position up to a more nearly vertical position. In the more nearly vertical position, the wafer can be processed by a top process module, which may be, e.g., a sputter system, an implanter, or an inspection module. Another process module is included in the bottom part of the chamber, so that the wafer can be processed by the lower process module while in its substantially horizontal position and processed by the upper process module when it is in its more nearly vertical position. This is especially advantageous when the lower process module is a plasma cleanup module and the top module is a deposition module.

    摘要: A thin reflective cylindrical baffle [20] in a radiant lamp heater is provided in the space below a plurality of heating bulbs [2,4,6] (arranged in a center position and around a middle and outer ring) and above a quartz window [12]. The baffle diameter is such that it fits within the annular space between the middle [4] and outer [6]ring of bulbs. The baffle which blocks a predetermined amount of light generated by the lamp bulbs [20] allows improved controllability of wafer temperature profile--for a wafer heated by a radiant lamp heater.

    摘要: Rapid thermal cycling of substrates in low-pressure processing environments is achieved by movable temperature conditioners located outside the processing environments. The substrates are mounted on thermally conductive pedestals for processing in the low-pressure environment. The temperature conditioners are movable both into and out of thermal contact with the pedestals outside the low-pressure environment to regulate transfers of heat through the pedestals between the substrates and the temperature conditioners. A translatable cooler block with a high thermal mass and a large interface area with the pedestal can be used as a temperature conditioner for more rapidly withdrawing heat from the substrate.
