    摘要: A dual-plenum fractal (DPF) showerhead for distributing different semiconductor processing gases across a semiconductor wafer during processing operations is provided. The DPF showerhead may have a plurality of layers, each featuring a pattern of gas distribution features, with the gas distribution features on each layer generally being similar in shape to the gas distribution features on the layer immediately upstream therefrom but smaller in size. Such a “fractal”-like structure to the gas flow passages provides very uniform processing gas delivery across the surface of a semiconductor wafer during processing operations, thereby enhancing wafer uniformity.

    摘要: A body of an electrostatic chuck comprises mesas disposed on a polished surface of the body. Each of the mesas comprises an adhesion layer disposed on the polished surface of the body, a transition layer disposed over the adhesion layer, and a coating layer disposed over the transition layer. The coating layer has a hardness of at least 14 GPa. The body further comprises a sidewall coating disposed over a sidewall of the body. A method for preparing the body comprises polishing the surface of the body and cleaning the polished surface. The method further comprises depositing the mesas by depositing the adhesion layer on the body, the transition layer over the adhesion layer, and the coating layer over the transition layer. Further, the method includes, polishing the mesas.
