    摘要: Embodiments disclosed herein generally relate to an HVPE chamber. The chamber may have one or more precursor sources coupled thereto. For example, a gallium source and a separate aluminum source may be coupled to the processing chamber to permit gallium nitride and aluminum nitride to be separately deposited onto a substrate in the same processing chamber. The nitrogen may be introduced to the processing chamber at a separate location from the precursors and at a lower temperature. The chamber has a truncated box shape formed by a curved cover which improves the flow of the nitrogen and precursor gases and the uniformity of the film deposition.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for plasma processing of substrates in a substantially vertical orientation is described. Substrates are positioned on a carrier comprising at least two frames oriented substantially vertically. The carrier is disposed in a plasma chamber with an antenna structure positioned between the substrates. Multiple plasma chambers may be coupled to a transfer chamber with a turntable for directing the carrier to a target chamber. A loader moves substrates between the carrier and a load-lock chamber in which substrates are staged in a substantially horizontal position.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to apparatus and methods for uniformly heating substrates. The apparatus include a transferable puck having at least one electrode and a dielectric coating. The transferable puck can be biased with a biasing assembly relative to a substrate, and transferred independently of the biasing assembly during a fabrication process while maintaining the bias relative to the substrate. The puck absorbs radiant heat from a heat source and uniformly conducts the heat to a substrate coupled to the puck. The puck has high emissivity and high thermal conductivity for absorbing and transferring the radiant heat to the substrate. The high thermal conductivity allows for a uniform temperature profile across the substrate, thereby increasing deposition uniformity. The method includes disposing a light-absorbing material on an optically transparent substrate, and radiating the light-absorbing material with a radiant heat source to heat the optically transparent substrate.
