摘要:
A tungsten nitride film, having a high growth speed without causing any dusting, is formed. The film forming apparatus 2, according to the present invention, includes an adhesion preventive container 8 which is placed in a reactor 11; and an object on which a film is to be formed 20 is located in the adhesion preventive container 8. In a first gas inlet equipment, a first feedstock gas is jetted from a shower nozzle 12. In a second gas inlet equipment, a second feedstock gas is jetted around the object on which a film is to be formed 20 between the shower nozzle 12 and the material 20. The first feedstock gas and the second feedstock gas attain the surface of the object on which a film is to be formed without being mixed together, which enables the efficient performance of the reaction. Since the adhesion preventive container is heated to 150 to 250° C., neither WF6.4NH3 nor WxN is formed and thus, no dusting is caused.

A method of coating phosphor particles by chemical vapor deposition. The phosphors are coated by introducing an inert gas into a reaction vessel; charging phosphor particles into the reaction vessel; heating the reaction vessel to a reaction temperature; introducing a coating precursor which includes carbon into the reaction vessel for a time sufficient to saturate the phosphor particles with the precursor; continuing precursor flow into the reaction vessel; introducing an oxygen/ozone mixture into the reaction vessel, the oxygen/ozone mixture comprising less than 4.4 wt. % ozone; and maintaining the inert gas flow, oxygen/ozone mixture flow and further precursor supply for a time sufficient to coat the phosphor particles. The process produces phosphors having from 2200 to 6300 ppm of carbon on the coating and provides lamp efficacy's of greater than 6.1 lm/watt.

The method of the invention involves depositing a plurality of thin layers of film, each layer having a thickness ranging from about 500Å to about 2000Å. Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition or other techniques known in the art maybe used to deposit each thin layer of film. The film is polysilicon or silicon-germanium, where the germanium content ranges from about 4% by weight to about 20% by weight germanium. A Rapid Thermal Anneal (“RTA”) is performed on a deposited thin film layer to relieve residual film stress in at least that film layer. The use of RTA rather than furnace annealing permits much shorter annealing times. Optionally, but advantageously, hydrogen may be present during RTA to permit the use of lower processing temperatures, typically about 20% lower relative to a customary anneal. A series of film deposition/rapid thermal anneal cycles is used to produce the desired, nominal total thickness polysilicon film. This method is generally useful for producing polysilicon films in the range of from about 2 microns to about 20 microns.

A method for manufacturing a thin-film solar cell substrate of group IB, IIIB and VIB elements of the Periodic Table, by using an apparatus for depositing selenium (Se) on the thin-film solar cell substrate. The apparatus has a base with gas inlet and outlet pipes. A bell jar is placed on top of the base with an O-ring interposed between them. A thin-film solar cell precursor and Se powder are placed in a recess formed in a lower heating jig, and the lower heating jig is positioned on the base. An upper heating jig is placed on top of the lower heating jig. The upper heating jig is vertically moved by a vertically actuating mechanism. The upper and lower heating jigs are heated under vacuum so as to diffuse Se to the thin-film solar cells, whereby a CuInSe2 alloy film is formed.

A method of making a coated article (e.g., window unit), and corresponding coated article are provided. A layer of or including diamond-like carbon (DLC) is formed on a glass substrate. Then, a protective layer is formed on the substrate over the DLC inclusive layer. During heat treatment (HT), the protective layer prevents the DLC inclusive layer from significantly burning off. Thereafter, the resulting coated glass substrate may be used as desired, it having been HT and including the protective DLC inclusive layer.
摘要:
A method of depositing boron carbide on an aluminum substrate, particularly useful for a plasma etch reactor having interior surfaces facing the plasma composed of boron carbide, preferably principally composed of B4C. Although in this application, the boron carbide may be a bulk sintered body, in the method of the invention it may be a layer of boron carbide coated on an aluminum chamber part. The boron carbide coating may be applied by thermal spraying, such as plasma spraying, by chemical vapor deposition, or by other layer forming technique such as a surface converting reaction. The boron carbide is highly resistant to high-density plasma etchants such as BCl3. The plasma sprayed coating is advantageously applied to only a portion of an anodized aluminum wall. The boron carbide may be sprayed over the exposed portion of an aluminum substrate over which the anodization has been removed. A band of the aluminum substrate at the transition between the anodization and the boron carbide is roughened prior to anodization so that the boron carbide sticks to the correspondingly roughened surface of the anodization. Alternatively, the entire wall area of the anodized aluminum to be coated is roughened, and the boron carbide is sprayed over the anodization.

The present invention provides a method of depositing an amorphous fluorocarbon film using a high bias power applied to the substrate on which the material is deposited. The invention contemplates flowing a carbon precursor at rate and at a power level so that equal same molar ratios of a carbon source is available to bind the fragmented fluorine in the film thereby improving film quality while also enabling improved gap fill performance. The invention further provides for improved adhesion of the amorphous fluorocarbon film to metal surfaces by first depositing a metal or TiN adhesion layer on the metal surfaces and then stuffing the surface of the deposited adhesion layer with nitrogen. Adhesion is further improved by coating the chamber walls with silicon nitride or silicon oxynitride.
