  • Publication number: 20210047730
    Abstract: Exemplary semiconductor processing chambers may include a showerhead. The chambers may also include a substrate support characterized by a first surface facing the showerhead. The first surface may be configured to support a semiconductor substrate. The substrate support may define a recessed pocket centrally located within the first surface. The recessed pocket may be defined by an outer radial wall characterized by a height from the first surface within the recessed pocket that is greater than or about 150% of a thickness of the semiconductor substrate.
