The present disclosure is directed to an apparatus for depositing a layer of a material on a wafer. The apparatus includes a deposition chamber having an upper dome, a lower dome and a side wall between the upper and lower domes. A susceptor plate is in and extends across the deposition chamber to divide the deposition chamber into an upper portion above the susceptor plate and a lower portion below the susceptor plate. An exhaust passage formed through the side wall and is coupled to an upper passage which extends to the upper portion of the deposition chamber and is coupled to a lower passage which extends to the lower portion of the deposition chamber.

A susceptor plate is in and extends across the deposition chamber to divide the deposition chamber into an upper portion above the susceptor plate and a lower portion below the susceptor plate. A gas inlet manifold is in the side wall. The manifold has three inlet ports. One of the ports is connected by passages which open into the lower portion of the deposition chamber. The other two ports are connected by passages which open into the upper portion of the deposition chamber. A gas supply system is connected to the inlet ports so as to provide the same gases into the lower portion of the deposition chamber as well as into the upper portion of the deposition chamber. This allows the back surface of the susceptor plate to be coated with a layer of the same material as to be coated on the wafer prior to coating the layer on the wafer.

An apparatus for depositing a material on a wafer includes a susceptor plate mounted in a deposition chamber. The chamber has a gas inlet and a gas exhaust. Means are provided for heating the susceptor plate. The susceptor plate has a plurality of support posts projecting from its top surface. The support posts are arranged to support a wafer thereon with the back surface of the wafer being spaced from the surface of the susceptor plate. The support posts are of a length so that the wafer is spaced from the susceptor plate a distance sufficient to allow deposition gas to flow and/or diffuse between the wafer and the susceptor plate, but still allow heat transfer from the susceptor plate to the wafer mainly by conduction. The susceptor plate is also provided with means, such as retaining pins or a recess, to prevent lateral movement of a wafer seated on the support posts.

摘要:
A system of supplying processing fluid to a substrate processing apparatus having walls, the inner surfaces of which define a processing chamber in which a substrate supporting susceptor is located. The system consists of a number of fluid storages, each which stores a separate processing fluid, at least two fluid conduits along which processing fluid flows from the fluid storages to the processing apparatus and a fluid inlet which connects the fluid conduits to the processing chamber. The inlet has a separate fluid passage, corresponding to each of the fluid conduits, formed along it. Each fluid passage opens at or near an inner surface of a wall to together define a fluid mixing zone, so that fluid moving along one fluid passage is prevented from mixing with fluid moving along any other passage until reaching the mixing zone.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for processing opposing surfaces of a wafer. In one embodiment a semiconductor processing chamber is provided having an opening which allows for insertion of a wafer. A wafer holder is located within the semiconductor processing chamber for receiving the wafer. An inlet port allows flow of gas into the semiconductor processing chamber. An outlet port allows flow of gas from the semiconductor processing chamber. A first heat plate is mounted within the semiconductor processing chamber so that a first face of a wafer, when held by the wafer holder, faces towards the first heat plate. A first heat source is located to heat the first heat plate. A second heat plate is mounted in position within the semiconductor processing chamber so that a second face of the wafer, opposing the first face, faces towards the second heat plate. A second heat source is located to heat the second heat plate.
摘要:
Techniques for evaluating the accuracy of a predicted effectiveness of an improvement to an infrastructure include collecting data, representative of at least one pre-defined metric, from the infrastructure during first and second time periods corresponding to before and after a change has been implemented, respectively. A machine learning system can receive compiled data representative of the first time period and generate corresponding machine learning data. A machine learning results evaluator can empirically analyze the generated machine learning data. An implementer can implement the change to the infrastructure based at least in part on the data from a machine learning data outputer. A system performance improvement evaluator can compare the compiled data representative of the first time period to that of the second time period to determine a difference, if any, and compare the difference, if any, to a prediction based on the generated machine learning data.
