摘要:
A method of monitoring a microelectronic manufacturing process includes the implementation of a monitoring sensor that is configured to operate in an inter-process mode. During an inter-process mode, a first valve is opened in order to initiate transfer of a processing substrate between at least one processing chamber and a transfer chamber. The monitoring sensor is programmed to monitor the interior of the at least one processing chamber only after the first valve is opened.
摘要:
An ion source apparatus for partial pressure analyzers and in-situ cleaning method thereof based on inducing a hollow cathode discharge (HCD) inside the ion source. The HCD is formed by applying a high negative voltage to one or more parts of the ion source, including the anode electrode, the lens focus plate and at least one other lens or other form of plate, such as a total pressure collector plate.
