Patents by Inventor Yong-kyun Lim

Yong-kyun Lim has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10910242
    Abstract: A temperature controller for semiconductor fabrication comprises a lower chiller connected with a lower chamber of a processing chamber and configured to adjust a temperature of the lower chamber, an electrostatic chuck disposed in the lower chamber and an upper chiller connected with an upper chamber of the processing chamber and configured to adjust a temperature of the upper chamber, a heater disposed in the upper chamber. In the temperature controller for semiconductor fabrication, the three-way valve may be installed on the cooling fluid supplying pipe, and the bypass pipe may be installed between the three-way valve and the cooling fluid collecting pipe to reduce the degree of bypass opening of the three-way valve.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6271134
    Abstract: A semiconductor device manufacturing apparatus, an HSG-polysilicon layer forming method, and a method for forming a capacitor having the HSG-polysilicon layer as an electrode equilibrate the temperature of a processing chamber with a temperature close to that at which a semiconductor manufacturing process occurs. The semiconductor device manufacturing apparatus includes a wafer supporter for holding a wafer during the semiconductor manufacturing process. An elevator moves the wafer supporter vertically among a load/unload position, a standby position above the load/unload position, and a process position above the load/unload position. With this apparatus, processing uniformity is enhanced.
