    摘要: Apparatus and systems are disclosed for processing a substrate. In an embodiment, a system includes a processing chamber, which includes a substrate support to support the substrate. The chamber further includes a plate member positioned below the substrate support and designed to improve heating efficiency within the processing chamber. The processing chamber further includes a lower dome positioned below the plate member. The plate member is designed to prevent a coating from being deposited on the lower dome during processing conditions. The plate member is designed to prevent particles and debris from falling below the plate member. The plate member is designed to improve heating uniformity between the plate member and the substrate within the processing chamber.

    摘要: Methods, semiconductor material stacks and equipment for manufacture of light emitting diodes (LEDs) with improve crystal quality. A growth stopper is deposited between nuclei for a group III-V material, such as GaN, to form a nano mask. The group III-V material is laterally overgrown from a region of the nuclei not covered by the nano mask to form a continuous material layer with reduced dislocation density in preparation for subsequent growth of n-type and p-type layers of the LED. The lateral overgrowth from the nuclei may further recover the surface morphology of the buffer layer despite the presence of the nano mask. Presence of the growth stopper may further result in void formation on a substrate side of an LED stack to improve light extraction efficiency.

    摘要: Systems for scribing a workpiece incorporate a motorized beam expander to change a laser beam spot size incident on a workpiece. A system includes a frame, a laser coupled with the frame and generating an output to remove material from at least a portion of a workpiece, a beam expander positioned along a path of the laser output and having a motorized mechanism operable to vary a beam expansion ratio applied to the laser output, and at least one scanning device coupled with the frame and operable to control a position of the laser output, after expansion, on the workpiece. The motorized beam expander can be used to selectively vary the width of a laser beam supplied to a scanning device so as to selectively vary the size of the laser beam incident on the workpiece. Alternatively, a variable aperture can be used instead of a beam expander.

    摘要: In-line metrology methods and systems for use with laser-scribing systems used in solar-cell fabrication are disclosed. Such methods and systems can involve a variety of components, for example, a device for measuring the amount of power input to a laser, a power meter for measuring laser output power, a beam viewer for measuring aspects of a laser beam, a height sensor for measuring a workpiece height, a microscope for measuring workpiece features formed by the laser-scribing system, and a system for monitoring a laser-scribing system and annunciating a warning(s) and/or an error message(s) when operational limits are exceeded. In-line metrology methods can also include the processing of output beam reflections so as to track beam drift over time and/or provide for focusing of an imaging device.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to apparatuses and systems for laser scribing a vertically-oriented workpiece. In many embodiments, a laser-scribing apparatus includes a frame, a first fixture coupled with the frame, a second fixture coupled with the frame, a laser operable to generate output able to remove material from at least a portion of the workpiece, and a scanning device coupled with the laser and the frame. The first fixture is configured for engagement with a first portion of the workpiece. The second fixture is configured for engagement with a second portion of the workpiece. When the workpiece is engaged by the first and second fixtures the workpiece is substantially vertically oriented. The scanning device is operable to control a position of the output from the laser relative to the workpiece.
