    摘要: A semiconductor wafer processing substrate support assembly, comprises a substrate support platform having a centrally disposed recess, coupled to a base disposed above the centrally disposed recess, a plate disposed above the base, and a substrate support disposed above the plate. The substrate support assembly further comprises a plurality of o-rings having a plurality of lobes, wherein a first lobed o-ring of the plurality of lobed o-rings is disposed between the support platform and the base, a second lobed o-ring is disposed between the base and the plate, and a third lobed o-ring is disposed between the plate and the substrate support. Moreover, the plurality of lobed o-rings are utilized in the support assembly for reducing the number of o-rings required in the support assembly.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention are generally directed to apparatus and methods for a plasma-processing chamber requiring less maintenance and downtime and possessing improved reliability over the prior art. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a substrate support resting on a ceramic shaft, an inner shaft allowing for electrical connections to the substrate support at atmospheric pressure, an aluminum substrate support resting on but not fixed to a ceramic support structure, sapphire rest points swaged into the substrate support, and a heating element inside the substrate support arranged in an Archimedes spiral to reduce warping of the substrate support and to increase its lifetime. Methods include increasing time between in-situ cleans of the chamber by reducing particle generation from chamber surfaces. Reduced particle generation occurs via temperature control of chamber components and pressurization of non-processing regions of the chamber relative to the processing region with a purge gas.

    摘要: A workpiece support having dichotomy of thermal paths therethrough is provided for controlling the temperature of a workpiece support thereon. In one embodiment, a workpiece support includes a platen body having a plug centrally disposed in a workpiece support surface of the platen body. A lower surface of the plug defines a void between the plug and a bottom of the bore. The void creates a dichotomy of thermal paths through the platen body thus controlling the temperature of a wafer support surface. Alternatively, the plug and platen body may be fabricated from materials having different rates of thermal conductivity to created the dichotomy of thermal paths in addition to or in absence of the void.
