    摘要: A method and apparatus for oxidizing materials used in semiconductor integrated circuits, for example, for oxidizing silicon to form a dielectric gate. An ozonator is capable of producing a stream of least 70% ozone. The ozone passes into an RTP chamber through a water-cooled injector projecting into the chamber. Other gases such as hydrogen to increase oxidation rate, diluent gas such as nitrogen or O2, enter the chamber through another inlet. The chamber is maintained at a low pressure below 20 Torr and the substrate is advantageously maintained at a temperature less than 800° C. Alternatively, the oxidation may be performed in an LPCVD chamber including a pedestal heater and a showerhead gas injector in opposition to the pedestal.

    摘要: The cylinder includes a core and a coating covering most of the core. The core is made from a heat-resistant or insulating material. The core has inner and outer side walls and opposing first and second ends. The outer side wall is further away from a central longitudinal axis of the cylinder than the inner wall. The first end is configured to contact an edge ring that supports a semiconductor substrate. The coating is substantially opaque to infrared radiation, and covers all external surfaces of the core except for the first end. The core is preferably made from quartz or ceramics, while the coating is preferably made from a polysilicon.

    摘要: A semiconductor wafer processing system including a factory interface operating at atmospheric pressure and mounting plural wafer cassettes and plural wafer processing chambers connected to the factory interface through respective slit valves. A robot in the factory interface can transfer wafers between the cassettes and the processing chambers. At least one of the processing chambers can operate at reduced pressure The processing chamber may be a rapid thermal processing chamber including an array of lamps irradiating a processing volume through a window. The lamphead is vacuum pumped to a pressure approximating that in the processing volume. A multi-step process may be performed with different pressures. The invention also includes a wafer access port of a thermal processing chamber which can flow an inert gas in outside of the slit valve to thereby form a gas curtain outside of the opened slit to prevent the out flow of toxic processing gases.
