摘要:
A substrate processing system includes a first chamber including a substrate support. A showerhead is arranged above the first chamber and is configured to filter ions and deliver radicals from a plasma source to the first chamber. The showerhead includes a heat transfer fluid plenum, a secondary gas plenum including an inlet to receive secondary gas and a plurality of secondary gas injectors to inject the secondary gas into the first chamber, and a plurality of through holes passing through the showerhead. The through holes are not in fluid communication with the heat transfer fluid plenum or the secondary gas plenum.

摘要:
A carrier wafer for receiving a wafer and supporting the wafer during semiconductor processing operations. The carrier wafer includes an annular ring surface and a pocket, the pocket being defined in a center of the carrier wafer and including a step defined by a sidewall extending between the annular ring surface and a top surface of the pocket.

A plasma chamber includes a pedestal, an upper electrode, and an annular structure. The pedestal has a central region to support a wafer and a step region that circumscribes the central region. A sloped region circumscribes the step region, with the sloped region having a top surface that slopes downward from the step region such that a vertical distance between the inner boundary of the top surface and the central region is less than a vertical distance between the outer boundary of the top surface and the central region. The upper electrode is coupled to a radio frequency power supply. An inner perimeter of the annular structure is defined to circumscribe the central region of the pedestal when the annular structure is disposed over the pedestal, and a portion of the annular structure has a thickness that increases with a radius of the annular structure.

A chamber for use in implementing a deposition process includes a pedestal for supporting a semiconductor wafer. A silicon ring is disposed over the pedestal and surrounds the semiconductor wafer. The silicon ring has a ring thickness that approximates a semiconductor wafer thickness. The silicon ring has an annular width that extends a process zone defined over the semiconductor wafer to an extended process zone that is defined over the semiconductor wafer and the silicon ring. A confinement ring defined from a dielectric material is disposed over the pedestal and surrounds the silicon ring. A showerhead having a central showerhead area and an extended showerhead area is also included. The central showerhead area is substantially disposed over the semiconductor wafer and the silicon ring. The extended showerhead area is substantially disposed over the confinement ring. The annular width of the silicon ring enlarges a surface area of the semiconductor wafer that is exposed and shifts non-uniformity effects of deposition materials over the semiconductor wafer from an edge of the semiconductor wafer to an outer edge of the silicon ring.

A system for processing a substrate includes a chamber having a chamber wall that defines a lower chamber portion and an upper chamber wall that defines an upper chamber portion. A showerhead is disposed in the upper chamber portion. A pedestal with a support for the substrate is disposed in the lower chamber portion and oriented below the showerhead, such that a processing region is defined between the support of the pedestal and the showerhead. A spacer is disposed between the showerhead and the lower chamber wall of the lower chamber portion. The spacer is defined by an annular body that includes a vertical component. The annular body also includes a side extension that is disposed outside of the processing region and projects radially away from the vertical component. The annular body includes a groove that is formed in the side extension so as to surround the vertical component of the annular body. A heating element is embedded in the groove of the side extension.
