A semiconductor fabrication system includes a mixing bowl, a distribution system receiving a mixture of gases from the mixing bowl, and a process chamber in fluid communication with the distribution system for performing a variety of semiconductor processes, e.g., deposition and etch processes, on a substrate. A plurality of mixing bowl sensors are disposed within a cavity of the mixing bowl and issue gas signals indicative of the type and flow-rate of the detected gas. Further, at least one process chamber sensor is provided within the process chamber and disposed proximal to the substrate. The process chamber sensor has a resonance property which changes upon exposure to the semiconductor process, i.e., a build-up of deposited material on a surface of the sensor, and issues material process signals indicative of the anticipated material on the surface of the substrate.

The present invention makes it easy to control the amount of material gas led out of a tank. Accordingly, carrier gas is introduced into a tank containing a material and together with the carrier gas, from the tank, material gas produced by vaporization of the material is led out. A control part controls the flow rate of the carrier gas so that a concentration index value obtained by measuring mixed gas led out of the tank and indicating the concentration of the material gas in the mixed gas comes close to a predetermined target concentration index value. In addition, the control part controls the flow rate of the carrier gas to change at a predetermined change rate, and then controls the flow rate of the carrier gas on the basis of the deviation between the concentration index value and the target concentration index value.

STEP 1 (Pressure increasing step) increases pressure within a raw material container to first pressure by supplying carrier gas to the inside of the raw material container by PCV. STEP 2 (Pressure decreasing step) decreases the pressure within the raw material container to second pressure by operating an exhaust device and discarding the raw material gas from a raw material gas supply pipe via an exhaust bypass pipe. STEP 3 (Stabilization step) stabilizes the vaporization efficiency for vaporizing the raw material inside the raw material container by operating the exhaust device and discarding the raw material gas while introducing the carrier gas into the raw material container. STEP 4 (Film forming step) supplies the raw material gas to the inside of the processing container via the raw material gas supply pipe and deposits a thin film on a wafer by CVD.

The present invention discloses single-walled carbon nanotubes horizontal arrays with ultra-high density and the preparation method. The method comprises the following steps: loading a catalyst on a single crystal growth substrate; after annealing, introducing hydrogen into a chemical vapor deposition system to conduct a reduction reaction of the catalyst; and maintaining the introduction of the hydrogen to conduct the orientated growth of a single-walled carbon nanotube. The density of the ultra-high density single-walled carbon nanotube horizontal array obtained by this method exceeds 130 tubes/micrometer, and an electrical performance test is performed on the prepared ultra-high density single-walled carbon nanotube horizontal array shows a high on-current density of 380 μA/μm, and the transconductance of 102.5 μS/μm.

A vapor deposition device includes a reactor including a reaction chamber and an injector for injecting vapor into the reaction chamber. The device also includes a manifold for delivering vapor to the injector. The manifold includes a manifold body having an internal bore, a first distribution channel disposed within the body in a plane intersecting the longitudinal axis of the bore, and a plurality of supply channels disposed within the body and in flow communication with the first distribution channel and with the bore. Each of the first supply channels is disposed at an acute angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the bore, and each of the supply channels connects with the bore at a different angular position about the longitudinal axis. The distribution channel (and thus, the supply channels) can be connected with a common reactant source. Related deposition methods are also described.
