    摘要: A method and apparatus for heating a substrate is provided herein. In one embodiment, a substrate heater includes a vessel having an upper member including a top surface for supporting a substrate thereon; a liquid disposed within and partially filling the vessel; and a heat source for providing sufficient heat to the liquid to boil the liquid. Optionally, a pressure controller for regulating the pressure within the vessel may be provided. The substrate is heated by first placing the substrate on the support surface of the vessel of the substrate heater. The liquid contained in the vessel is then boiled. As the liquid is boiling, a uniform film of heated condensation is deposited on a bottom side of the support surface. The heated condensation heats the support surface which in turn, heats the substrate.

    摘要: A non-contact pyrometric technique is provided for measuring the temperature and/or emissivity of an object that is being heated by electromagnetic radiation within the optical range. The measurement is made at short wavelengths for the best results. The measurement may be made at wavelengths within those of the heating optical radiation, and the resulting potential error from detecting heating radiation reflected from the object is avoided by one of two specific techniques. A first technique utilizes a mirror positioned between the heating lamps and the object, the mirror reflecting a narrow wavelength band of radiation in which the optical pyrometer detector operates. The second technique is to independently measure the a.c. ripple of the heating lamp radiation and subtract the background optical noise from the detected object signal in order to determine temperature and emissivity of the object. Both of these techniques can be combined, if desired.

    摘要: A substrate processing system includes a processing chamber, a pedestal for supporting a substrate disposed within the processing chamber, and an optical pyrometry assembly coupled to the processing chamber to measure an emitted light originating substantially from a portion of the pedestal or substrate. The optical pyrometry assembly further includes a light receiver, and an optical detector. The optical pyrometry assembly receives a portion of the emitted light, and a temperature of the substrate is determined from an intensity of the portion of the emitted light near at least one wavelength. A method of measuring a temperature of a substrate during processing, includes disposing a light pipe near a portion of the pedestal supporting the substrate or pedestal, shielding the end of the light pipe from stray light so that the end of the light pipe receives light from the portion of the pedestal or substrate, purging the end of the light pipe with a gas to reduce contamination of the end of the light pipe, detecting a portion of the light emitted from the pedestal and received by the light pipe, and determining a temperature of the substrate from the intensity of the portion of the emitted light from the pedestal or the substrate near at least one wavelength.

    摘要: Methods for compensating for a thermal profile in a substrate heating process are provided herein. In one embodiment, a method of processing a substrate includes determining an initial thermal profile of a substrate resulting from a process; imposing a compensatory thermal profile on the substrate based on the initial thermal profile; and performing the process to create a desired thermal profile on the substrate. In other embodiments of the invention, the initial substrate thermal profile is compensated for by adjusting a local mass heated per unit area, a local heat capacity per unit area, or an absorptivity or reflectivity of a component proximate the substrate prior to performing the process. In another embodiment, the heat provided by an edge ring to the substrate may be controlled either prior to or during the substrate heating process.
