摘要:
An apparatus and method for reducing the production of white powder in a process chamber used for depositing silicon nitride. Steps of the method include heating at least a portion of a wall of the process chamber; providing a liner covering a substantial portion of a wall of the process chamber; providing a remote chamber connected to the interior of the process chamber; causing a plasma of cleaning gas in the remote chamber; and flowing a portion of the plasma of cleaning gas into the process chamber. The apparatus includes a deposition chamber having walls; means for heating the walls, the means thermally coupled to the walls; a liner covering a substantial portion of the walls; a remote chamber disposed outside of the chamber; an activation source adapted to deliver energy into the remote chamber; a first conduit for flowing a precursor gas from a remote gas supply into the remote chamber where it is activated by the activation source to form a reactive species; and a second conduit for flowing the reactive species from the remote chamber into the deposition chamber.
摘要:
A method of film layer deposition is described. A film layer is deposited using a cyclical deposition process. The cyclical deposition process consists essentially of a continuous flow of one or more process gases and the alternate pulsing of a precursor and energy to form a film on a substrate structure.

摘要:
A method for cleaning a deposition chamber that is used in fabricating electronic devices including the steps of delivering a precursor gas into a remote chamber that is outside of the deposition chamber, activating the precursor gas in the remote chamber via a high power source to form a reactive species, flowing the reactive species from the remote chamber into the deposition chamber, and using the reactive species that is flowed into the deposition chamber from the remote chamber to clean the inside of the deposition chamber.

A system and method for processing large area substrates. In one embodiment, a system for processing large area substrates includes prep station, a stamping station and a stamp that is automatically moved between the stamping station and the prep station. The stamping station is adapted to retain a large area substrate thereon. The stamp has a patterned bottom surface that is adapted for microcontact printing. The prep station is for applying a precursor to the patterned bottom surface of the stamp. In one embodiment, a method for processing large area substrates includes the steps of disposing a large area substrate on a platen, inking a stamp adapted for microcontact printing, and automatically contacting a bottom of the stamp to the large area substrate supported on a platen.

Methods are provided for forming a transistor for use in an active matrix liquid crystal display (AMLCD). In one aspect a method is provided for processing a substrate including providing a glass substrate, depositing a conductive seed layer on a surface of the glass substrate, depositing a resist material on the conductive seed layer, patterning the resist layer to expose portions of the conductive seed layer, and depositing a metal layer on the exposed portions of the conductive seed layer by an electrochemical technique.
摘要:
A process for removing residue from the interior of a semiconductor process chamber using molecular fluorine gas (F2) as the principal precursor reagent. In one embodiment a portion of the molecular fluorine is decomposed in a plasma to produce atomic fluorine, and the resulting mixture of atomic fluorine and molecular fluorine is supplied to the chamber whose interior is to be cleaned. In another embodiment the molecular fluorine gas cleans the semiconductor process chamber without any plasma excitation. Molecular fluorine gas has the advantage of not being a global warming gas, unlike fluorine-containing gas compounds conventionally used for chamber cleaning such as NF3, C2F6 and SF6.

摘要:
Provided herein is a method for cleaning a process chamber for semiconductor and/or flat panel display manufacturing. This method comprises the steps of converting a non-cleaning feed gas to a cleaning gas in a remote location and then delivering the cleaning gas to the process chamber for cleaning. Such method may further comprise the step of activating the cleaning gas outside the chamber before the delivery of the gas to the chamber. Also provided is a method of eliminating non-cleaning feed gas from the cleaning gas by cryo condensation.
