摘要: A system and method which is capable of compensating for unintended elevations in process temperatures induced in a substrate during a semiconductor fabrication process in order to reduce or eliminate disparities in critical dimensions of device features. The system may be a plasma etching system comprising a process chamber containing an electrostatic chuck (ESC) for supporting a wafer substrate. A chiller outside the process chamber includes a main coolant chamber, which contains a main coolant fluid, as well as an compensation coolant chamber, which contains an compensation coolant fluid. A main circulation loop normally circulates the main coolant fluid from the main coolant chamber through the electrostatic chuck to maintain the chuck at a desired set point temperature.

摘要: A new and improved, multi-phase pressure control valve for facilitating quick and accurate attainment and stabilization of gas pressure inside a semiconductor fabrication process chamber such as an etch chamber or CVD chamber. In one embodiment, the multi-phase pressure control valve is a butterfly-type valve which includes outer and inner vanes that independently control flow of gases from a process chamber to a vacuum pump. The larger-diameter outer vane stabilizes gas pressures within a large range, whereas the inner vane stabilizes pressure within a smaller range. In another embodiment, the multi-phase pressure control valve is a gate-type valve which may include a pivoting outer vane and an inner vane slidably disposed with respect to the outer vane for exposing a central gas flow opening in the outer vane.

摘要: A continuous liquid delivery system which includes at least one primary filter and at least one secondary filter for alternatively receiving a liquid such as a CMP polishing slurry. A primary backwash circuit is provided in fluid communication with each primary filter for backwashing of the primary filter. At least one secondary backwash circuit is provided in fluid communication with each secondary filter for backwashing of the secondary filter. As the liquid is distributed through the primary filter or filters, the secondary filter or filters can be backwashed, and vice-versa to facilitate a continuous flow of the liquid from a source to a destination.
