Patent number: 7726333Abstract: Each of lines A, B is provided on each of opposite sides thereof with a tape heater 11, and a space for positioning a tape heater holding clip 13 therein is provided in each of locations between adjacent fluid control devices. The tape heaters 11 are held from opposite sides thereof to the line by the clip 13. The lines A, B provided with the heaters are each mounted on a line support member 10 removably attached to a base member 1. The line support member 10 has a heater insertion bore 14 formed therein and extending longitudinally thereof. A sheath heater 12 is inserted into the bore 14.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2002Date of Patent: June 1, 2010Assignees: CKD Corporation, Fujikin IncorporatedInventors: George Hoshi, Tsuneyuki Okabe, Kenichi Goshima, Hideo Kobayashi, Akinori Nagaya, Michio Yamaji, Kazuhiro Yoshikawa, Yuji Kawano

Patent number: 6863732Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a heat treatment system and method for heat-treating an object to be treated. Particularly, the invention relates to a heat treatment system wherein an object to be treated is carried in a reaction vessel, which has been pressure-reduced to a predetermined degree of vacuum and the interior of which is heated to a predetermined process temperature, and a process gas is supplied into the reaction vessel via a gas feed passage to process the object.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2003Date of Patent: March 8, 2005Assignee: Tokyo Electron LimitedInventors: Takanobu Asano, Katsutoshi Ishii, Hiroyuki Yamamoto, George Hoshi, Kazutoshi Miura

Publication number: 20030106495Abstract: When an oxidation process for semiconductor wafers is carried out by a batch type furnace, the uniformity of the thickness of a film is intended to be improved so as to be capable of carrying out a low temperature process. In a system for feeding a mixed gas of hydrogen gas and water vapor into a reaction vessel to carry out a so-called wet oxidation, a ventilation resistance material is provided in an outside passage of a double-pipe passage for heating gas in an external combustion system, and a mixed gas of hydrogen gas and hydrogen chloride gas is passed through the ventilation resistance material to be heated to a process temperature or higher by means of the heater of the combustion system to previously produce a very small amount of water vapor to carry out a dry oxidation. When dinitrogen oxide gas is used for producing a nitrogen containing silicon oxide film, dinitrogen oxide gas is passed through the outside passage to be previously activated.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 15, 2003Publication date: June 12, 2003Inventors: Takanobu Asano, Katsutoshi Ishii, Hiroyuki Yamamoto, George Hoshi, Kazutoshi Miura
