    摘要: Methods and apparatus for processing substrates are provided herein. In some embodiments, an apparatus for processing a substrate includes a flow equalizer configured to control the flow of gases between a process volume and an exhaust port of a process chamber. The flow equalizer includes at least one restrictor plate configured to be disposed in a plane proximate a surface of a substrate to be processed and defines an azimuthally non-uniform gap between an edge of the at least one restrictor plate and one of either a chamber wall or a substrate support when installed in the process chamber.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention provide a dual load lock chamber capable of processing a substrate. In one embodiment, the dual load lock chamber includes a chamber body defining a first chamber volume and a second chamber volume isolated from one another. Each of the lower and second chamber volumes is selectively connectable to two processing environments through two openings configured for substrate transferring. The dual load lock chamber also includes a heated substrate support assembly disposed in the second chamber volume. The heated substrate support assembly is configured to support and heat a substrate thereon. The dual load lock chamber also includes a remote plasma source connected to the second chamber volume for supplying a plasma to the second chamber volume.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention provide an apparatus heating and supporting a substrate in a processing chamber. One embodiment of the present invention provides a substrate support assembly. The substrate support assembly includes a heated plate having a substrate supporting surface on a front side and a cantilever arm extending from a backside of the heated plate. The heated plate is configured to support and heat a substrate on the substrate supporting surface. The cantilever arm has a first end attached to the heated plate near a central axis of the heated plate, and a second end extending radially outwards from the central axis.
