Embodiments described herein generally relate to components for a semiconductor processing chamber, a process kit for a semiconductor processing chamber, and a semiconductor processing chamber having a process kit. In one embodiment a lower shield for encircling a sputtering target and a substrate support is provided. The lower shield comprises a cylindrical outer band having a first diameter dimensioned to encircle the sputtering surface of the sputtering target and the substrate support, the cylindrical band comprising a top wall that surrounds a sputtering surface of a sputtering target and a bottom wall that surrounds the substrate support, a support ledge comprising a resting surface and extending radially outward from the cylindrical outer band, a base plate extending radially inward from the bottom wall of the cylindrical band, and a cylindrical inner band coupled with the base plate and partially surrounding a peripheral edge of the substrate support.

Target assemblies for use in a substrate processing system are provided herein. In some embodiments, a target assembly for use in a substrate processing system may include a source material to be deposited on a substrate, a first backing plate configured to support the source material on a front side of the first backing plate, such that a front surface of the source material opposes the substrate when present, a second backing plate coupled to a backside of the first backing plate, and a plurality of sets of channels disposed between the first and second back plates. These channels permit a coolant to be provided closer to the heat source (target face) thereby facilitating more efficient heat removal from the target. More efficient heat removal from the target results in a target with a lesser thermal gradient and therefore less mechanical bowing/deformation.

An electrostatic chuck and method of use thereof is provided herein. In some embodiments, an electrostatic chuck may include a disk having a first side to support a substrate thereon and a second side, opposing the first side, to provide an interface to selectively couple the disk to a thermal control plate, a first electrode disposed within the disk proximate the first side to electrostatically couple the substrate to the disk and a second electrode disposed within the disk proximate the opposing side of the disk to electrostatically couple the disk to the thermal control plate. In some embodiments, the second electrode may also be configured to heat the disk.
