    摘要: A method and system for controlling the introduction of a species according to a determined concentration profile of a film comprising the species introduced on a substrate. In one aspect, the method comprises controlling the flow rate of a species according to a determined concentration profile of a film introduced on a substrate, and introducing a film on a substrate, the film comprising the species at a first concentration at a first point in the film and a second concentration different than the first concentration at a second point in the film. Also, a bipolar transistor including a collector layer of a first conductivity type, a base layer of a second conductivity type forming a first junction with the collector layer, and an emitter layer of the first conductivity type forming a second junction with the base layer. An electrode configured to direct carriers through the emitter layer to the base layer and into the collector layer is also included. In one embodiment, at least one of the first junction and the second junction is between different semiconductor materials to form at least one heterojunction. The heterojunction has a concentration profile of a semiconductor material such that an electric field changes in an opposite way to that of a mobility change.

    摘要: A showerhead for a semiconductor-processing reactor formed by an array of showerhead tiles. Each showerhead tile has a plurality of process gas apertures, which may be in a central area of the tile or may extend over the entire tile. Each showerhead tile can be dimensioned for processing a respective substrate or the array can be dimensioned for processing a substrate. An exhaust region surrounds the process gas apertures. The exhaust region has at least one exhaust aperture, and may include an exhaust slot, a plurality of connected exhaust slots or a plurality of exhaust apertures. The exhaust region surrounds the array of showerhead tiles, or a respective portion of the exhaust region surrounds the plurality of process gas apertures in each showerhead tile or group of showerhead tiles. A gas curtain aperture may be between the exhaust region and the process gas apertures of one of the showerhead tiles or adjacent to the central area of the tile.

    摘要: A method of suppressing parasitic particle formation in a metal organic chemical vapor deposition process is described. The method may include providing a substrate to a reaction chamber, and introducing an organometallic precursor, a particle suppression compound and at least a second precursor to the reaction chamber. The second precursor reacts with the organometallic precursor to form a nucleation layer on the substrate. Also, a method of suppressing parasitic particle formation during formation of a III-V nitride layer is described. The method includes introducing a group III metal containing precursor to a reaction chamber. The group III metal precursor may include a halogen. A hydrogen halide gas and a nitrogen containing gas are also introduced to the reaction chamber. The nitrogen containing gas reacts with the group III metal precursor to form the III-V nitride layer on the substrate.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to methods and apparatus for chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on a substrate, and, in particular, to a process chamber and components for use in metal organic chemical vapor deposition. The apparatus comprises a chamber body defining a process volume. A showerhead in a first plane defines a top portion of the process volume. A carrier plate extends across the process volume in a second plane forming an upper process volume between the showerhead and the susceptor plate. A transparent material in a third plane defines a bottom portion of the process volume forming a lower process volume between the carrier plate and the transparent material. A plurality of lamps forms one or more zones located below the transparent material. The apparatus provides uniform precursor flow and mixing while maintaining a uniform temperature over larger substrates thus yielding a corresponding increase in throughput.
