DETECTION AND LOCATION OF ANOMALOUS PLASMA EVENTS IN FABRICATION CHAMBERS
An apparatus to determine occurrence of an anomalous plasma event occurring at or near a process station of a multi-station integrated circuit fabrication chamber is disclosed. In particular embodiments, optical emissions generated responsive to the anomalous plasma event may be detected by at least one photosensor of a plurality of photosensors. A processor may cooperate with the plurality of photosensors to determine that the anomalous plasma event has occurred at or near by a particular process station of the multi-station integrated circuit fabrication chamber.
APPARATUS FOR TREATING SUBSTRATE
The inventive concept provides a substrate treating apparatus. The substrate treating apparatus includes a chamber providing an inner space; a fluid supply unit configured to supply a treating fluid to the inner space; and a fluid exhaust unit configured to exhaust the treating fluid from the inner space, and wherein the fluid exhaust unit includes: an exhaust line connected to the chamber; and a pressure adjusting member installed at the exhaust line and configured to maintain a pressure of the inner space to a set pressure, and wherein the fluid supply unit includes: a fluid supply source; and a supply line provided between the fluid supply source and the chamber, and wherein at the supply line or the exhaust line a flow rate measuring member configured to measure a flow rate per unit time of the treating fluid flowing at the inner space is installed.
SUSCEPTOR CLEANING
The current disclosure relates to a vapor deposition assembly for depositing material on a substrate. The vapor deposition assembly comprises a treatment chamber for treating susceptors from a deposition chamber that comprises multiple, moveable susceptors. The assembly further comprises a transfer system configured and arranged to move a susceptor between the deposition chamber and the treatment chamber. The disclosure further relates to a method of cleaning as susceptor and to a susceptor treatment apparatus.
METHODOLOGY FOR SUBSTRATE TO CATHODE PLANARITY AND CENTERING ALIGNMENT
A method and apparatus for aligning components within a processing module are described herein. The components include a substrate transfer device, a plurality of support chuck assemblies, and adjustable bushings disposed in the processing module. The substrate transfer device includes support arms with heads configured to passively correct the location of a substrate therein. The orientation of each of the support arms of the substrate transfer device is adjusted to align with each of the support chuck assemblies. The location of a process station is then adjusted to align with one of the support chuck assemblies by calibrating the adjustable bushings which correspond to each process station.
