  • Patent number: 7390366
    Abstract: An apparatus for CVD is disclosed. Processing gas is injected to an upper center portion of a wafer supporting member by a gas focus ring installed at an inner side surface of a reaction chamber. The processing gas is prevented from coming down to a lower space of the reaction chamber by purge gas supplied from a lower surface of the reaction chamber. Accordingly to this, a particle source is minimized and a period to check an equipment is prolonged. Also, the purge gas is prevented from mounting to an upper space of the reaction chamber by a pressure of the processing gas, thereby not influencing to a process for CVD. The processing gas and the purge gas are exhausted through a gas outlet installed at a lateral wall of the reaction chamber as a ring shaped recess. A shielding layer for preventing the processing gas and the purge gas from being mixed each other is horizontally installed at a middle portion of the gas outlet.

  • Patent number: 6656284
    Abstract: Disclosed is a semiconductor device manufacturing apparatus provided with a rotational gas injector for supplying source gases at an upper portion of a reaction chamber. According to the invention, source gases are injected from the upside of the wafers through the rotational type gas injector, and non-reacted gases are exhausted into the downside space of the wafers, so that lowering in the thickness uniformity of a thin film due to the horizontal flow of source gases provided in the conventional art decrease remarkably. Accordingly, although multiple wafers are loaded in a single reaction chamber, a thin film having very high thickness uniformity can be deposited with respect to all the wafers, thereby capable of enhancing the productivity.

  • Publication number: 20030116279
    Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for a chemical vapor deposition, which comprises: a reaction chamber 10 having an upper inner wall and a lower inner wall, the lower inner wall being inwardly further protruded than the upper inner wall to form a stepped portion between the lower inner wall and the upper inner wall; a wafer supporting die 50 installed within the reaction chamber 10; a gas focus ring 70 installed in the upper inner wall; a purge gas supply hole 90 installed in a bottom face of the reaction chamber 10; a gas discharge hole 80 installed in an upper portion of the lower inner wall; and a pumping line 82 for connecting the gas discharge hole 80 with a vacuum pump. This invention can prevent the process gas from being deposited on a lower portion of the reaction chamber 10. If accumulation of the gas occurs around the gas discharge hole 80, a burning phenomenon appears around the gas discharge hole 80 due to the heat of a main heater installed inside the wafer supporting die 50.
