    摘要: 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.

    摘要: 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.
