Description

加热装置、化学气相沉积设备及吹扫方法Heating device, chemical vapor deposition equipment and purging method

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及半导体处理设备技术领域,特别涉及一种加热装置、化学气相沉积设备及吹扫方法。The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor processing equipment, in particular to a heating device, chemical vapor deposition equipment and a purging method.

背景技术Background technique

化学气相沉积(Chemical Vapor Deposition,简称CVD)反应设备或原子层沉积(Atomic layer deposition,简称ALD)反应设备在沉积时放置有加工基片的承载盘(衬底支撑组件)。一种典型的气相沉积反应器结构为,由反应腔侧壁环绕围成的反应腔,反应腔内包括轴结构,安放有基片的加热装置安装在轴结构的顶端。反应腔顶部包括气体喷淋头,用于将反应气体从反应气体源均匀注入反应腔,实现对基片的加工处理,反应腔下方还包括一个抽气装置以控制反应腔内部气压并抽走反应过程中产生的废气。A chemical vapor deposition (Chemical Vapor Deposition, CVD for short) reaction device or an atomic layer deposition (Atomic layer deposition, ALD for short ALD) reaction device is placed with a carrier plate (substrate supporting component) for processing a substrate during deposition. A typical vapor deposition reactor structure is a reaction chamber surrounded by side walls of the reaction chamber. The reaction chamber includes a shaft structure, and a heating device on which a substrate is placed is installed on the top of the shaft structure. The top of the reaction chamber includes a gas shower head, which is used to uniformly inject the reaction gas from the reaction gas source into the reaction chamber to realize the processing of the substrate. The bottom of the reaction chamber also includes an air extraction device to control the internal pressure of the reaction chamber and pump out the reaction chamber. exhaust gases generated during the process.

采用上述反应设备处理基片(衬底或晶圆)时,需要采用边缘吹扫(Edge purge)功能和底部吹扫(bottom purge)功能对基片进行吹扫,减少基片支撑基座边缘上的沉积物堆积,以保护基片支撑基座免受处理气体的影响。边缘环组件可保持在相对较低的温度下,以帮助最大程度地减少边缘环组件上的沉积物;改善腔室性能,延长保持清洁环境的时间,并防止反应气体接触晶圆背面和污染。When using the above-mentioned reaction equipment to process the substrate (substrate or wafer), it is necessary to use the edge purge (Edge purge) function and the bottom purge (bottom purge) function to purge the substrate to reduce the pressure on the edge of the substrate support base. The deposit builds up to protect the substrate support pedestal from the process gases. The edge ring assembly can be kept at a relatively low temperature to help minimize deposits on the edge ring assembly; improving chamber performance, maintaining a clean environment for extended periods of time, and preventing reactive gases from contacting the backside of the wafer and contaminating it.

通过对基片进行边缘吹扫测试,发现由于现有的加热装置的硬件不能更改,而吹扫孔径取决于两个部件的组装位置,由于组成公差的存在引起吹扫孔径的改变,造成基片边缘吹扫气体的分布不均匀。同时,如果需要对吹扫的气流的分布进行调整,则需要对整个加热器或加热装置的结构进行更改,为了获得理想的气流分布,每次测试都要对结构更改,必然导致成本增加,测试等待周期长,而且现有技术的晶圆边缘吹扫气体很难灵活控制。Through the edge purge test of the substrate, it is found that the hardware of the existing heating device cannot be changed, and the purge aperture depends on the assembly position of the two components. Due to the composition tolerance, the change of the purge aperture causes the substrate Uneven distribution of edge purge gas. At the same time, if the distribution of the purging airflow needs to be adjusted, the structure of the entire heater or heating device needs to be changed. In order to obtain an ideal airflow distribution, the structure must be changed for each test, which will inevitably lead to an increase in cost. The waiting period is long, and it is difficult to flexibly control the purge gas at the edge of the wafer in the prior art.

本发明至少具有以下优点之一:The present invention has at least one of the following advantages:

本发明所提供的一种用于化学气相沉积设备的加热装置,所述加热装置通过设有的气塞中的通孔向所述缓冲腔中通入边缘吹扫气体,所述缓冲腔内的边缘吹扫气体依次通过水平间隙和倾斜间隙对基片的边缘进行吹扫,防止沉积气体在这个基片边缘后侧沉积,进而解决由于基片粘在加热装置上,导致取片的时候容易碎裂的问题,以及改善腔室性能,延长保持清洁环境的时间,并防止反应气体接触晶圆背面-和污染。A heating device for chemical vapor deposition equipment provided by the present invention, the heating device passes edge purge gas into the buffer cavity through the through hole in the gas plug provided, and the buffer cavity in the buffer cavity The edge purge gas sweeps the edge of the substrate through the horizontal gap and the inclined gap in order to prevent the deposition gas from depositing on the rear side of the substrate edge, and then solve the problem that the substrate is easily broken when taking it out due to the substrate sticking to the heating device. Cracking issues, as well as improving chamber performance, maintaining a clean environment for extended periods of time, and preventing reactive gases from reaching the backside of the wafer—and contaminating it.

所述水平间隙的设置减缓了通向所述基片边缘的气流流速,且通过更改所述水平间隙的长度和/或其宽度可以达到需要的边缘吹扫效果或要求。当不同部件之间由于安装公差带来的吹扫气体沿基片边缘分布不均时,因水平间隙直接位于倾斜间隙和缓冲腔之间,其间隙厚度不受不同部件水平位移带来的影响,可以使从水平间隙流出的气体流速沿基片边缘保持均一分布。The setting of the horizontal gap slows down the flow rate of the airflow leading to the edge of the substrate, and by changing the length and/or width of the horizontal gap, the required edge purging effect or requirement can be achieved. When the purge gas is unevenly distributed along the edge of the substrate due to installation tolerances between different components, because the horizontal gap is directly located between the inclined gap and the buffer cavity, the thickness of the gap is not affected by the horizontal displacement of different components. The gas flow rate from the horizontal gap can be maintained uniformly distributed along the edge of the substrate.

所述缓冲腔的设置用于暂存来自通孔的吹扫气体,使得通过所述水平间隙和倾斜间隙的气流流速和流量在所述基片边缘处能够保持稳定。The setting of the buffer chamber is used to temporarily store the purge gas from the through hole, so that the velocity and flow rate of the gas flow through the horizontal gap and the inclined gap can be kept stable at the edge of the substrate.

所述倾斜间隙的设置能够保证所述水平间隙的完整性。The setting of the inclined gap can ensure the integrity of the horizontal gap.

本发明所提供的所述气塞内的通孔孔壁呈不规则状,由此通过调节所述气塞的通孔的孔径和/或形状时,可以改变通向所述缓冲腔内的气流方向和气流流速,由此进一步提高在基片边缘的所沉积的薄膜的均匀性。The wall of the through hole in the air plug provided by the present invention is irregular, so that the air flow leading to the buffer cavity can be changed by adjusting the diameter and/or shape of the through hole of the air plug. direction and gas flow rate, thereby further improving the uniformity of the deposited film at the edge of the substrate.

通过调节所述气塞的通孔的孔径和/或形状来进行工艺边缘吹扫测试,成本低和测试时间短,有效提高了工艺边缘吹扫测试的效率。The process edge purge test is performed by adjusting the diameter and/or shape of the through hole of the air plug, which has low cost and short test time, and effectively improves the efficiency of the process edge purge test.

The gap is formed between the surfaces of the other steps and the inner surface of the fixed edge ring 101 .

在本实施例中,所述台阶包括三层,记为第一台阶10、第二台阶11和第三台阶12;所述固定边环101与第二台阶11对应的部分的内表面远离第二台阶11的竖直侧面,使所述固定边环101套设在加热器底座100上时,可以形成缓冲腔111,每一所述气塞200位于所述第一台阶10下方,所述第一台阶10的上表面为第一台阶面,所述气塞200通过所述第一台阶10的第一台阶面与所述缓冲腔111连通;所述第二台阶11的上表面为第二台阶面,第二台阶面与所述固定边环101的内表面构成所述水平间隙1010;所述第三台阶12具有一倾斜的侧面,该侧面与所述固定边环101的内表面构成所述倾斜间隙1011。In this embodiment, the steps include three layers, which are denoted as the first step 10, the second step 11 and the third step 12; The vertical side of the step 11 can form a buffer cavity 111 when the fixed edge ring 101 is sleeved on the heater base 100, and each of the air plugs 200 is located below the first step 10, and the first The upper surface of the step 10 is a first step surface, and the air plug 200 communicates with the buffer chamber 111 through the first step surface of the first step 10; the upper surface of the second step 11 is a second step surface , the second step surface and the inner surface of the fixed edge ring 101 form the horizontal gap 1010; the third step 12 has an inclined side, and the side surface and the inner surface of the fixed edge ring 101 form the inclined Clearance 1011.

在本实施例中,每一所述气塞200在所述加热器底座100内倾斜设置,所述气塞200靠近所述第一台阶面的一端远离所述加热器底座100的中心轴;所述气塞200远离所述第一台阶面的一端靠近所述加热器底座100的中心轴。此种放置位置是为了便于在所述加热器底座100中的第一台阶10内制备所述气塞200。因加热器底座100的下部其他部件的布置差异,这样设置塞子会更灵活的达到吹扫气体的输入需求。每一所述气塞200靠近所述第一台阶10的底部的一端端口处设有密封件300。在其他实施例中,气塞200也可以竖直设置。In this embodiment, each of the air plugs 200 is arranged obliquely inside the heater base 100 , and the end of the air plugs 200 close to the first stepped surface is away from the central axis of the heater base 100 ; An end of the air plug 200 away from the first stepped surface is close to the central axis of the heater base 100 . This placement is for the convenience of preparing the air plug 200 in the first step 10 of the heater base 100 . Due to the differences in the arrangement of other components at the bottom of the heater base 100 , setting the plug in this way will more flexibly meet the input requirements of the purge gas. A seal 300 is provided at one port of each air plug 200 near the bottom of the first step 10 . In other embodiments, the air plug 200 can also be arranged vertically.

在本实施例中,所述缓冲腔111整体上呈圆环形,所述水平间隙1010整体上呈圆环形;所述倾斜间隙1011在整体上呈圆环形,以保证对基片的边缘进行均匀的气体吹扫,但本发明不以此为限,所述缓冲腔111,所述水平间隙1010和所述倾斜间隙1011可以根据加热器底座100的形状进行定制。In this embodiment, the buffer cavity 111 is in the shape of a ring as a whole, the horizontal gap 1010 is in the shape of a ring as a whole; the inclined gap 1011 is in the shape of a ring as a whole, so as to ensure the Perform uniform gas purging, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The buffer cavity 111 , the horizontal gap 1010 and the inclined gap 1011 can be customized according to the shape of the heater base 100 .

在本实施例中,所述水平间隙1010的水平宽度范围为1.5mm~5mm。所述水平间隙1010的竖直厚度为0.2mm-1mm。所述水平间隙1010的宽度和所述倾斜间隙1011的宽度相同或不同。In this embodiment, the horizontal width of the horizontal gap 1010 ranges from 1.5 mm to 5 mm. The vertical thickness of the horizontal gap 1010 is 0.2mm-1mm. The width of the horizontal gap 1010 is the same as or different from the width of the inclined gap 1011 .

由此可知,在本实施例中,水平间隙1010的厚度不会因为固定边环101与加热器底座100在水平方向的相对移动而改变,这种相对移动在组装时是避免不了的,如果水平间隙1010的厚度不发生改变,从缓冲腔111中流出的吹扫气体经过水平间隙1010后流速就会基本稳定,即使倾斜间隙1011的厚度改变,也不会影响基片边缘的吹扫气体分布,因为从缓冲腔111到水平间隙1010的压差比较大,从水平间隙1010到倾斜间隙1011的压差很小可忽略,所述水平间隙1010的设置统一了通向所述基片的边缘的气流流速,且通过更改所述水平间隙1010的长度和/或其宽度可以达到需要的边缘吹扫效果或要求。It can be seen that, in this embodiment, the thickness of the horizontal gap 1010 will not change due to the relative movement between the fixed side ring 101 and the heater base 100 in the horizontal direction, and this relative movement cannot be avoided during assembly. The thickness of the gap 1010 does not change, and the flow rate of the purge gas flowing out of the buffer chamber 111 will be basically stable after passing through the horizontal gap 1010. Even if the thickness of the inclined gap 1011 changes, the distribution of the purge gas at the edge of the substrate will not be affected. Because the pressure difference from the buffer chamber 111 to the horizontal gap 1010 is relatively large, and the pressure difference from the horizontal gap 1010 to the inclined gap 1011 is small and negligible, the setting of the horizontal gap 1010 unifies the airflow leading to the edge of the substrate flow rate, and by changing the length and/or width of the horizontal gap 1010, the required edge blowing effect or requirement can be achieved.

所述缓冲腔111的设置用于暂存来自通孔2010的吹扫气体,使得通过所述水平间隙1010和倾斜间隙1011的气流流速和流量在所述基片的边缘处能够保持稳定。所述倾斜间隙1011的设置可以保证所述水平间隙1010的完整性,调整吹扫气体在基片边缘的吹扫方向。The setting of the buffer chamber 111 is used to temporarily store the purge gas from the through hole 2010, so that the flow rate and flow rate of the gas passing through the horizontal gap 1010 and the inclined gap 1011 can be kept stable at the edge of the substrate. The setting of the inclined gap 1011 can ensure the integrity of the horizontal gap 1010 and adjust the blowing direction of the purge gas at the edge of the substrate.

在本实施例中,每一所述气塞200采用铝材料制备。每一所述气塞200的外表面呈圆柱形,每一所述气塞200内的通孔2010的孔壁呈不规则状。具体的在本实施例中,每一所述气塞200内的通孔2010整体上呈圆柱状。每一所述通孔2010且与对应的所述气塞200同轴设置。气塞200与加热器底座100活动连接,可以在吹扫测试时,换用具有不同通孔2010形状的气塞200,以获得合适的吹扫气体分布。In this embodiment, each air plug 200 is made of aluminum material. The outer surface of each of the air plugs 200 is cylindrical, and the walls of the through holes 2010 in each of the air plugs 200 are irregular. Specifically, in this embodiment, the through holes 2010 in each of the air plugs 200 are generally cylindrical. Each of the through holes 2010 is coaxially arranged with the corresponding air plug 200 . The gas plug 200 is movably connected with the heater base 100 , and the gas plug 200 having a different shape of the through hole 2010 can be replaced with a gas plug 200 having a different shape of the through hole 2010 to obtain a proper distribution of the purge gas.

本实施例还包括:活动边环102,其套设在所述固定边环101上,所述活动边环102的内径小与所述固定边环101的内径。所述活动变环102的作用之一是为了便于组装所述加热装置,其作用之二是由于所述活动边环102的内径小与所述固定边环101的内径,使活动边环102组装到固定边环101上时,所述活动边环102的内径可以形成一个边沿,该边沿位于倾斜间隙1011的上方,这样从所述倾斜间隙1011流出的边缘吹扫气体就会沿水平方向朝基片的边缘吹,而不会向上吹,提高吹扫效果,提高基片表面洁净度。This embodiment further includes: a movable side ring 102 sleeved on the fixed side ring 101 , the inner diameter of the movable side ring 102 is smaller than the inner diameter of the fixed side ring 101 . One of the functions of the movable ring 102 is to facilitate the assembly of the heating device, and the second function is to make the movable ring 102 assemble When it reaches the fixed edge ring 101, the inner diameter of the movable edge ring 102 can form an edge, which is located above the inclined gap 1011, so that the edge purge gas flowing out from the inclined gap 1011 will move toward the substrate along the horizontal direction. The edge of the blower will not be blown upward, which improves the blowing effect and improves the cleanliness of the substrate surface.

This leads to the problem of easy chipping when picking up the wafer, as well as improving chamber performance, extending the time to maintain a clean environment, and preventing reactive gases from contacting the wafer backside and contamination.

实施例二Embodiment two

如图2所示,本实施例与实施例一的区别在于,本实施例所提供的,每一所述气塞200内的通孔2011的形状与实施例一提供的通孔的形状不同。As shown in FIG. 2 , the difference between the present embodiment and the first embodiment is that the shape of the through hole 2011 in each air plug 200 provided by the present embodiment is different from the shape of the through hole provided by the first embodiment.

在本实施例中,所述通孔2011整体呈V型弯折状,具体包括相互连接的第一弯折段和第二弯折段,所述第一弯折段和所述第二弯折段分别呈圆柱状,所述第一弯折段与所述气塞200同轴设置,所述第二弯折段的一端与所述第一弯折段连接,另一端靠近所述气塞200的中心轴设置,由此可以更改通入至所述缓冲腔111内的气流方向,进而改变通入至所述基片的边缘吹扫气体的流速,便于调整对应的基片边缘处的吹扫效果。In this embodiment, the through hole 2011 has a V-shaped bent shape as a whole, and specifically includes a first bent section and a second bent section connected to each other, and the first bent section and the second bent section The sections are respectively cylindrical, the first bent section is arranged coaxially with the air plug 200, one end of the second bent section is connected to the first bent section, and the other end is close to the air plug 200 The central axis of the central axis is set, so that the direction of the gas flow into the buffer chamber 111 can be changed, and then the flow rate of the purge gas at the edge of the substrate can be changed, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the purge at the edge of the corresponding substrate. Effect.

实施例三Embodiment Three

如图3所示,本实施例与实施例一的区别在于,本实施例所提供的每一所述气塞200设置位置与实施例一中的气塞设置位置不同。As shown in FIG. 3 , the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the installation position of each air plug 200 provided in this embodiment is different from the installation position of the air plug in Embodiment 1.

在本实施例中,所述气塞200竖直设置在所述加热器底座100的边缘内部;具体的,其位于第二台阶11下方,且贯穿所述第一台阶10设置。In this embodiment, the air plug 200 is vertically arranged inside the edge of the heater base 100 ; specifically, it is located below the second step 11 and is arranged through the first step 10 .

每一所述气塞200内的所述通孔2011成圆柱形,且与所述气塞200同轴设置,所述通孔2011与所述缓冲腔111连通的一端端口2012变窄,此较细端口2012的设置可以先阻挡以下由下面冲进来的吹扫气体,以减少在缓冲腔中的紊流,即保证所述缓冲腔111内的边缘吹扫气体的气流稳定性,进而提高对所述基片边缘吹扫的均匀性。The through hole 2011 in each of the air plugs 200 is cylindrical and coaxially arranged with the air plug 200, and the end port 2012 of the through hole 2011 communicated with the buffer cavity 111 is narrowed, which is smaller than The setting of the thin port 2012 can first block the purge gas rushing in from below to reduce the turbulent flow in the buffer chamber, that is, to ensure the flow stability of the edge purge gas in the buffer chamber 111, thereby improving the flow rate of the purge gas to the buffer chamber 111. The uniformity of purging at the edge of the substrate.

图4所示为本发明一实施例提供的水平间隙测试时吹扫气体的质量流量分布曲线,图中的横坐标代表基片边缘不同角度的位置坐标,纵轴代表吹扫气体的质量流量,其中水平间隙选择1.5mm宽度,0.2mm厚度,将不均匀性定义为不同位置最大质量流量与最小质量流量的差与最小值的百分比。从中可知,在基片0到30范围内,吹扫气体的质量流量最大值为0.345,最小值为0.339,不均匀性为2.1%。曲线波动的原因是在气塞附近会达到最大值,在两个气塞之间会达到最小值。可以看出,使用本发明的技术方案,可以显著降低不均匀性。Fig. 4 shows the mass flow distribution curve of the purge gas during the horizontal gap test provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The abscissa in the figure represents the position coordinates of different angles on the edge of the substrate, and the vertical axis represents the mass flow of the purge gas. Among them, the width of the horizontal gap is 1.5mm, and the thickness is 0.2mm. The inhomogeneity is defined as the difference between the maximum mass flow rate and the minimum mass flow rate at different positions and the percentage of the minimum value. It can be seen that, within the range of 0 to 30 on the substrate, the maximum value of the mass flow rate of the purge gas is 0.345, the minimum value is 0.339, and the non-uniformity is 2.1%. The reason for the fluctuation of the curve is that a maximum is reached near the airlock and a minimum is reached between two airlocks. It can be seen that, using the technical solution of the present invention, the non-uniformity can be significantly reduced.

如图5所示,为本发明另一实施例提供的水平间隙测试时吹扫气体的质量流量分布曲线,其中水平间隙选择5mm宽度,1mm厚度,在基片0到30范围内,吹扫气体的质量流量最大值为0.3447,最小值为0.3405,不均匀性为1.2%,可以看出,通过调整水平间隙的宽度和厚度,可以调整基片边缘吹扫气体的分布均匀性。As shown in Figure 5, the mass flow distribution curve of the purge gas during the horizontal gap test provided by another embodiment of the present invention, wherein the horizontal gap is selected to have a width of 5mm and a thickness of 1mm, and within the range of 0 to 30 on the substrate, the purge gas The maximum value of the mass flow rate is 0.3447, the minimum value is 0.3405, and the non-uniformity is 1.2%. It can be seen that the distribution uniformity of the purge gas at the edge of the substrate can be adjusted by adjusting the width and thickness of the horizontal gap.

由此可知,通过调整所述通孔的孔径和/或所述水平间隙的宽度可以调整边缘吹扫的均匀性。It can be seen that the uniformity of edge purging can be adjusted by adjusting the diameter of the through hole and/or the width of the horizontal gap.

再一方面,本实施例还提供一种化学气相沉积设备,包括:反应腔;所述反应腔的顶端设置一气体喷淋头,所述气体喷淋头下方设置一如上文所述的加热装置。In another aspect, this embodiment also provides a chemical vapor deposition equipment, including: a reaction chamber; a gas shower head is arranged at the top of the reaction chamber, and a heating device as described above is arranged below the gas shower head .

其他方面,本实施例还提供一种采用如上文所述化学气相沉积设备处理基片的方法,包括:采用气体喷淋头将反应气体从反应气体源均匀注入反应腔,实现对基片的加工处理,边缘吹扫气体经由每一所述气塞内的通孔、所述缓冲腔、所述水平间隙和所述倾斜间隙通入至待处理基片的边缘;调节所述通孔的孔径以调节气流的流速以及气流方向以改善所述基片边缘吹扫均匀性。In other respects, this embodiment also provides a method for processing a substrate using the chemical vapor deposition equipment as described above, including: using a gas shower head to uniformly inject the reaction gas from the reaction gas source into the reaction chamber to realize the processing of the substrate For processing, the edge purge gas passes into the edge of the substrate to be processed through the through hole in each of the gas locks, the buffer chamber, the horizontal gap and the inclined gap; adjust the aperture of the through hole to The flow rate and direction of the airflow are adjusted to improve the uniformity of sweeping the edge of the substrate.

综上所述,本实施例所提供的一种用于化学气相沉积设备的加热装置,所述加热装置通过设有的气塞中的通孔向所述缓冲腔中通入边缘吹扫气体,所述缓冲腔内的边缘吹扫气体依次通过水平间隙和倾斜间隙对基片的边缘进行吹扫,防止沉积气体在这个基片边缘后侧沉积,进而解决由于基片粘在加热装置上,导致取片的时候容易碎裂的问题,以及改善腔室性能,延长保持清洁环境的时间,并防止反应气体接触晶圆背面和污染。In summary, this embodiment provides a heating device for chemical vapor deposition equipment, the heating device passes the edge purge gas into the buffer chamber through the through hole in the provided gas plug, The edge purge gas in the buffer chamber sweeps the edge of the substrate sequentially through the horizontal gap and the inclined gap to prevent the deposition gas from depositing on the rear side of the edge of the substrate, thereby solving the problem of the substrate sticking to the heating device. The problem of easy chipping when picking up wafers, as well as improving chamber performance, extending the time to maintain a clean environment, and preventing reactive gases from contacting the back of the wafer and contamination.

所述水平间隙的设置减缓了通向所述基片边缘的气流流速,且通过更改所述水平间隙的长度和/或其宽度可以达到需要的边缘吹扫效果或要求。当不同部件之间由于安装公差带来的吹扫气体沿基片边缘分布不均时,因水平间隙直接位于倾斜间隙和缓冲腔之间,其间隙厚度不受不同部件水平位移带来的影响,可以使从水平间隙流出的气体流速沿基片边缘保持均一分布。The setting of the horizontal gap slows down the flow rate of the airflow leading to the edge of the substrate, and by changing the length and/or width of the horizontal gap, the required edge purging effect or requirement can be achieved. When the purge gas is unevenly distributed along the edge of the substrate due to installation tolerances between different components, because the horizontal gap is directly located between the inclined gap and the buffer cavity, the thickness of the gap is not affected by the horizontal displacement of different components. The gas flow rate from the horizontal gap can be maintained uniformly distributed along the edge of the substrate.

所述缓冲腔的设置用于暂存来自通孔的吹扫气体,使得通过所述水平间隙和倾斜间隙的气流流速和流量在所述基片边缘处能够保持稳定。The setting of the buffer chamber is used to temporarily store the purge gas from the through hole, so that the velocity and flow rate of the gas flow through the horizontal gap and the inclined gap can be kept stable at the edge of the substrate.

所述倾斜间隙的设置保证了所述水平间隙的完整性。The setting of the inclined gap ensures the integrity of the horizontal gap.

本实施例所提供的所述气塞内的通孔孔壁呈不规则状,由此通过调节所述气塞的通孔的孔径和/或形状时,可以改变通向所述缓冲腔内的气流方向和气流流速,由此进一步提高在基片边缘的所沉积的薄膜的均匀性。The wall of the through hole in the air plug provided in this embodiment is irregular, so when adjusting the diameter and/or shape of the through hole of the air plug, the flow leading to the buffer cavity can be changed. The gas flow direction and gas flow velocity thereby further improve the uniformity of the deposited film at the edge of the substrate.

通过调节所述气塞的通孔的孔径和/或形状来进行工艺边缘吹扫测试,成本低和测试时间短,有效提高了工艺边缘吹扫测试的效率。The process edge purge test is performed by adjusting the diameter and/or shape of the through hole of the air plug, which has low cost and short test time, and effectively improves the efficiency of the process edge purge test.
