摘要:
A method and system for vapor deposition on a substrate that disposes a substrate in a process space of a processing system that is isolated from a transfer space of the processing system, processes the substrate at either of a first position or a second position in the process space while maintaining isolation from the transfer space, and deposits a material on said substrate at either the first position or the second position. Furthermore, the system includes a high conductance exhaust apparatus configured to be coupled to the process space, whereby particle contamination of the substrate processed in the deposition system is minimized. The exhaust apparatus comprises a pumping system located above the substrate and an evacuation duct, wherein the evacuation duct has an inlet located below the substrate plane.

An ultraviolet-ray-assisted processing apparatus (10) for a semiconductor process includes a window disposed in a wall defining the process chamber (12) and to face a worktable (11), and configured to transmit ultraviolet rays. A light source (15) is disposed outside the process chamber (12) to face the window (20), and configured to emit ultraviolet rays. A supply system configured to supply a process gas in the process chamber (12) includes a head space (21) formed in the window (20) and which the process gas passes through, and a plurality of discharge holes (22) for discharging the process gas.

A method, computer readable medium, and system for treating a substrate in a process space of a processing system that is vacuum isolated from a transfer space of the processing system is described. A sealing device is disposed between a first chamber assembly configured to define the process space and a second chamber assembly configured to define the transfer space. When the sealing device is engaged, vacuum isolation is provided between the process space and the transfer space. The sealing device comprises two or more contact ridges with one or more pockets formed therebetween. When the sealing device is engaged between the first chamber assembly and the second chamber assembly, gas is trapped in the one or more pockets. This trapped gas assists the release of the sealing device upon disengagement of the sealing device between the first chamber assembly and the second chamber assembly.

A method, computer readable medium, and system for vapor deposition on a substrate that maintain a first assembly of the vapor deposition system at a first temperature, maintain a second assembly of the vapor deposition system at a reduced temperature lower than the first temperature, dispose the substrate in a process space of the first assembly that is vacuum isolated from a transfer space in the second assembly, and deposit a material on the substrate. As such, the system includes a first assembly having a process space configured to facilitate material deposition, a second assembly coupled to the first assembly and having a transfer space to facilitate transfer of the substrate into and out of the deposition system, a substrate stage connected to the second assembly and configured to support the substrate, and a sealing assembly configured to separate the process space from the transfer space. The first assembly is configured to be maintained at a first temperature and the second assembly is configured to be maintained at a reduced temperature lower than the first temperature.

The single substrate thermal processing apparatus (2) includes a process chamber (5) arranged to accommodate a target substrate (W) and provided with a showerhead (10) disposed on its ceiling. A support member (28) is disposed to support the target substrate (W) so as for it to face the showerhead (10), when the target substrate (W) is subjected to a semiconductor process. A heating lamp (30) is disposed below the support member (28), for radiating light to heat the target substrate (W). The support member (28) and heating lamp (30) are moved up and down together relative to the showerhead (10) by an elevator mechanism (20). The elevator mechanism (20) sets different distances between the showerhead (30) and heating lamp (10), in accordance with the different process temperatures, thereby causing temperature change of the bottom surface of the showerhead (10) to fall in a predetermined range.
