摘要:
A main pump having a wide range of vacuum exhaust capabilities and a high exhaust speed is connected adjacent to a processing chamber and an auxiliary pump having a low exhaust speed is connected by a small-diameter auxiliary pipeline to the exhaust side of the main pump. Since a main pump having a wide range of vacuum exhaust capabilities and a high exhaust speed is connected adjacent to the processing chamber in this manner, not only can improvements in the exhaust characteristics be expected, but it is also possible to reduce the diameter of the auxiliary pipeline from the main pump onward and make the auxiliary pump smaller. Since the auxiliary pump having a low exhaust speed is connected by a small-diameter auxiliary pipeline to the exhaust side of the main pump, the size and cost of the entire system can be reduced.

A process apparatus comprises a process chamber containing a semiconductor wafer, a gas being able to be supplied to and exhausted from the process chamber, a support table for supporting an object to be processed, which is contained in the process chamber, a gas supply system for supplying the gas into the process chamber, and a gas exhaust system for exhausting the gas from the process chamber. An inner wall of the process chamber and the support table are formed of an aluminum-based material, and the surfaces of these are brought into contact with a fluorine-containing gas, thereby coating the surfaces with AlF.sub.3.

A one-by-one type heat-processing apparatus is disclosed. The one-by-one type heat-processing apparatus includes a processing vessel for processing a semiconductor wafer. A susceptor having a support surface for placing the semiconductor wafer is arranged in the processing vessel. A shower head section is arranged at an interval with respect to the support surface of the susceptor. Processing gas supply pipes for supplying a processing gas are independently connected to the shower head section. A plurality of gas injection holes are formed in the shower head section. First to third heating means for heating the susceptor are attached to the susceptor. The first heating means having a disk-like shape is arranged at almost the center on the lower surface side of the susceptor. The second heating means is concentrically arranged to surround the first heating means. The third heating means is arranged at the peripheral edge portion of the susceptor. The diameter of a gas injection region having the plurality of gas injection holes on the surface of the shower head section opposite to the susceptor is substantially equal to the diameter of the third heating means. The apparatus also includes a central control section capable of independently controlling the first to third heating means.

A quartz window can withstand a pressure difference between an atmospheric pressure and a negative pressure environment created in a thermal processing apparatus that applies a thermal process to a target object under the negative pressure environment. The quartz window is adapted to be positioned between a radiation heat source and an object to be subjected to a heat treatment in the process chamber. The quartz window has a plate made of quartz and a plurality of ribs formed on the plate so as to reinforce the plate.
