SILICON OXIDE COATED POLYMER FILMS AND LOW PRESSURE PECVD METHODS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME
A stress-free transparent silicon oxide coated polymer substrates and a method for depositing a stress-free transparent silicon oxide based layer on polymer substrates using a PECVD device including at least one hollow cathode plasma source.
SUBSTRATE PROCESSING METHOD AND SUBSTRATE PROCESSING APPARATUS
The present disclosure relates to a substrate processing method and apparatus which can supply gas to a plurality of process chamber through one gas supply unit, and supply different gases at the same time, thereby improving the uniformity of the thicknesses of thin films deposited in the respective chambers.
The substrate processing method and apparatus can perform a process in only one chamber by supplying gas to only the chamber at the same time or perform different processes in the plurality of chambers by supplying different gases to the respective chambers. Therefore, films having uniform thicknesses can be deposited in the respective chambers, and the gas supply efficiency can be improved.

CHAMBER ARCHITECTURE FOR EPITAXIAL DEPOSITION AND ADVANCED EPITAXIAL FILM APPLICATIONS
The present disclosure generally relates to a process chamber for processing of semiconductor substrates. The process chamber includes an upper lamp assembly, a lower lamp assembly, a substrate support, an upper window disposed between the substrate support and the upper lamp assembly, a lower window disposed between the lower lamp assembly and the substrate support, an inject ring, and a base ring. Each of the upper lamp assembly and the lower lamp assembly include vertically oriented lamp apertures for the placement of heating lamps therein. The inject ring includes gas injectors disposed therethrough and the base ring includes a substrate transfer passage, a lower chamber exhaust passage, and one or more upper chamber exhaust passages. The gas injectors are disposed over the substrate transfer passage and across from the lower chamber exhaust passage and the one or more upper chamber exhaust passages.
MAGNETICALLY COUPLED RF FILTER FOR SUBSTRATE PROCESSING CHAMBERS
A semiconductor processing chamber for processing semiconductor substrates may include a pedestal to support a substrate with a heater zones and a wire mesh configured to deliver a Radio Frequency (RF) signal to a plasma. The chamber may also include heater zone controls that deliver current to the heater zones and a filter circuit between the heater zone controls and the heater zones. The filter circuit may include inductors on leads from the heater zones and a resonant circuit with a resonant inductor that is magnetically coupled to the lead inductors. The resonant circuit may produce a resonant peak that filters the RF signal delivered to the wire mesh from the leads from the heater zones to prevent the RF signal from reaching the heater zone controls.
