A substrate treatment apparatus that treats a substrate under treatment has an interface section, a substrate loading/unloading section, a reduced pressure atmosphere conveyance chamber, and an exposure treatment chamber. The interface section has a conveyance mechanism that can freely load and unload the substrate under treatment from another device into the apparatus or vice versa. The substrate under treatment can be loaded and unloaded into and from the substrate loading/unloading section in one direction by the conveyance mechanism of the interface section. The reduced pressure atmosphere conveyance chamber is disposed adjacent to and perpendicular to the direction of the substrate loading/unloading section and has a conveyance mechanism that conveys the substrate under treatment under a reduced pressure atmosphere. The exposure treatment chamber is disposed adjacent to and in parallel with the direction of the reduced pressure atmosphere conveyance chamber and performs an exposure treatment for the substrate under treatment.
摘要:
A substrate processing apparatus forms a thin film of high-dielectric or ferroelectric such as barium/strontium titanates, or a copper film for wiring on a substrate, and has a gas ejection head for individually introducing at least two gases including a material gas and ejecting the gases toward a substrate to be processed. The gas ejection head has at least two gas passageways for individually introducing the two gases, and at least two temperature control devices for individually controlling temperatures of the gases flowing through the gas passageways.

A compact thin-film deposition apparatus can promote a stable growth of a high quality thin-film product of uniform quality. The apparatus comprises a vacuum-tight deposition chamber enclosing a substrate holding device for holding a substrate. An elevator device for moving the substrate holding device and a gas showering head for flowing a film forming gas towards the substrate are provided. A transport opening and an exhaust opening are provided on a wall section of the deposition chamber at a height corresponding to the transport position and the deposition position, respectively. The deposition chamber is provided with a flow guiding member, and the flow guiding member comprises a cylindrical member to surround an elevating path of the substrate holding device and a first ring member to vertically divide a chamber space at a height between the exhaust opening and the transport opening.

An electro-optical inspection apparatus is provided that is capable of preventing adhesion of dust or particles to the sample surface as much as possible. A stage (100) on which a sample (200) is placed is disposed inside a vacuum chamber (112) that can be evacuated to vacuum, and a dust collecting electrode (122) is disposed to surround a periphery of the sample (200). The dust collecting electrode (122) is applied with a voltage having the same polarity as a voltage applied to the sample (200) and an absolute value that is the same or larger than an absolute value of the voltage. Thus, because dust or particles such as particles adhere to the dust collecting electrode (122), adhesion of the dust or particles to the sample surface can be reduced. Instead of using the dust collecting electrode, it is possible to form a recess on a wall of the vacuum chamber containing the stage, or to dispose on the wall a metal plate having a mesh structure to which a predetermined voltage is applied. In addition, adhesion of dust or particles can be further reduced by disposing a gap control plate (124) having a through hole (124a) at the center above the sample (200) and the dust collecting electrode (122).
