  • Patent number: 11923181
    Abstract: A substrate processing apparatus capable of minimizing the effect of a filling gas in a lower space on the processing of a substrate includes: a substrate supporting unit; at least one ring surrounding the substrate supporting unit; a processing unit on the substrate supporting unit; and an exhaust unit connected to a reaction space between the substrate supporting unit and the processing unit, wherein a first gas in the reaction space is transmitted to the exhaust unit through a first channel, a second gas in a lower space below the substrate supporting unit is transmitted to the exhaust unit through a second channel, and the first channel and the second channel are separated by the at least one ring.

  • Patent number: 11840761
    Abstract: Provided is a cooling device capable of controlling the temperature of an upper portion of a reactor, particularly, a gas supply device, for example, a shower head, by using a vortex tube. The cooling device may supply a cooling gas of a temperature lower than the temperature of the gas supply device heated to a high temperature, thereby easily controlling the temperature of the gas supply device.
