    摘要: A system of supplying processing fluid to a substrate processing apparatus having walls, the inner surfaces of which define a processing chamber in which a substrate supporting susceptor is located. The system consists of a number of fluid storages, each which stores a separate processing fluid, at least two fluid conduits along which processing fluid flows from the fluid storages to the processing apparatus and a fluid inlet which connects the fluid conduits to the processing chamber. The inlet has a separate fluid passage, corresponding to each of the fluid conduits, formed along it. Each fluid passage opens at or near an inner surface of a wall to together define a fluid mixing zone, so that fluid moving along one fluid passage is prevented from mixing with fluid moving along any other passage until reaching the mixing zone.

    摘要: An apparatus and a concomitant method for controlling coolant (air) flow proximate a reaction chamber within a workpiece processing system such that the temperature of a wall of the reaction chamber is maintained at a predefined target temperature. The target temperature is typically a temperature that optimizes a process concurrently being accomplished within the chamber, e.g., utilizing one temperature during deposition processes and a different temperature during cleaning processes. The apparatus contains a temperature measuring device to measure the temperature of the chamber wall. The measured temperature is compared to the predefined target temperature. A closed loop system controls the air flow proximate the chamber walls such that the measured temperature becomes substantially equal to the target temperature. Air flow control is provided by an air flow control device located within an inlet conduit that supplies air to a shroud for channeling the air past the reaction chamber. The shroud forms a portion of a housing which supports and encloses the reaction chamber.

    摘要: The present invention discloses an apparatus and method for the turbulent mixing of gases. The invention has particular application when it is desired to produce a gas mixture including a very small quantity (ppm or less) of at least one component gas and/or wherein there is a substantial density difference between the component gases to be used to make up the gas mixture. The apparatus comprises: a tubular housing; at least two orifices or jets located near one end of the housing, through which gases to be mixed can enter the interior of the housing, the orifices or jets being oriented so that a first portion of gas flowing from a first orifice or jet will directly impact a second portion of gas flowing from a second orifice or jet, whereby frictional mixing of the gas components is achieved, further, the centerline of the first orifice or jet is offset from the centerline of the second, opposing orifice or jet, so as to produce a swirling action within the tubular interior of the gas mixer; and an exit opening at the opposite end of the tubular housing.

    摘要: Techniques for evaluating the accuracy of a predicted effectiveness of an improvement to an infrastructure include collecting data, representative of at least one pre-defined metric, from the infrastructure during first and second time periods corresponding to before and after a change has been implemented, respectively. A machine learning system can receive compiled data representative of the first time period and generate corresponding machine learning data. A machine learning results evaluator can empirically analyze the generated machine learning data. An implementer can implement the change to the infrastructure based at least in part on the data from a machine learning data outputer. A system performance improvement evaluator can compare the compiled data representative of the first time period to that of the second time period to determine a difference, if any, and compare the difference, if any, to a prediction based on the generated machine learning data.
