摘要:
A vacuum heating furnace comprises a translucent container for retaining a heated object and a heating light source for heating a heated object retained in the translucent container. The translucent container has on its surface a tapered portion to receive transmitted light totally reflected on the inner surface of the translucent container at an angle smaller than a critical angle.

Wafer contamination is prevented, while preventing damage to a high-frequency electrode and a susceptor. A main body 41 of the susceptor 40 of an MMT apparatus is composed of a heater arranging plate 42, an electrode arranging plate 48, and a supporting plate 56 all made from quartz. A circular electrode arranging hole 49 with a fixed depth is concentrically formed on the upper surface of the electrode arranging plate 48, and quadrangular pillars 50 are formed protruding in a matrix on the bottom of the electrode arranging hole 49. Multiple insertion holes 52 are formed in a disk-shaped high-frequency electrode 51, and the high-frequency electrode 51 is installed in the electrode arranging hole 49 by inserting each pillar 50 into each insertion hole 52. The gaps Sa and Sb are provided between the high-frequency electrode 51 and the electrode arranging plate 48. The pillar 50 boosts the strength of the electrode arranging plate 48. Damage to the high-frequency electrode is prevented even if the thermal expansion coefficient of the high-frequency electrode is larger than that of the electrode arranging plate, since the gaps absorb the thermal expansion differential.

A heating apparatus comprises a wall for surrounding and defining a heating space, a heating element mounted on the inner side of the wall, reflecting members for reflecting the heat emitted from the heating element. Also, a moving unit joined to one end of each of the reflecting members for moving the reflecting members. Moreover, pivotal members joined to the reflecting members beside more their respective other side than one side of the reflecting members for controlling as pivots the movement of the reflecting member driven by the moving unit.

In a semiconductor device manufacturing method for processing a plurality of substrates by alternately repeating a pretreatment stage and a continuous substrate processing stage, the continuous substrate processing stage comprises the steps of: loading a substrate on a heater unit located at a substrate loading/unloading position, the heater unit supporting and heating the substrate; processing the loaded substrate after transferring the heater unit having thereon the loaded substrate to a substrate processing position; unloading the processed substrate; and repeating the loading step, the processing step and the unloading step until a set of substrates are processed, and wherein the pretreatment stage is carried out by maintaining the heater unit between the substrate loading/unloading position and the substrate processing position.

A heating apparatus comprises a heating element, an inner shell for supporting the heating element, an outer shell disposed along the outer boundary of the inner shell, a cooling medium passage for conveying a cooling medium between the inner shell and the outer shell, a first opening provided in the inner shell, a second opening provided in the outer shell, and a partition arranged to extend from the first opening to the second opening for developing at least a space separated from the cooling medium passage and between the inner shell and the outer shell. The heating apparatus further comprises an insulator for shutting up a gap provided between the partition and the second opening.
摘要:
A tubular electrode (215) and a tubular magnet (216) are installed on an external section of a processing furnace (202) for an MMT device. A susceptor (217) for holding a wafer (200) is installed inside a processing chamber (201) of the processing furnace. A gate valve (244) for conveying the wafer into and out of the processing chamber; and a shower head (236) for spraying processing gas in a shower onto the wafer, are installed inside the processing furnace. A high frequency electrode (2) and a heater (3) are installed inside the susceptor (217) with a clearance between them and the walls forming the space. The clearances formed between the walls forming the space in the susceptor and the high frequency electrode and the heater prevent damage to the high frequency electrode and the heater even if a thermal expansion differential occurs between the high frequency electrode, the heater and the susceptor.
