In large area plasma processing systems, process gases may be introduced to the chamber via the showerhead assembly which may be driven as an RF electrode. The gas feed tube, which is grounded, is electrically isolated from the showerhead. The gas feed tube may provide not only process gases, but also cleaning gases from a remote plasma source to the process chamber. The inside of the gas feed tube may remain at either a low RF field or a zero RF field to avoid premature gas breakdown within the gas feed tube that may lead to parasitic plasma formation between the gas source and the showerhead. By feeding the gas through an RF choke, the RF field and the processing gas may be introduced to the processing chamber through a common location and thus simplify the chamber design.

The present disclosure provides a method for growing a seed crystal, including: obtaining a plurality of orthohexagonal seed crystals in a hexagonal crystal system by performing a first cutting on a plurality of seed crystals in the hexagonal crystal system to be expanded, respectively; splicing the plurality of orthohexagonal seed crystals in the hexagonal crystal system; obtaining a seed crystal in the hexagonal crystal system to be grown by performing a second cutting on the plurality of spliced orthohexagonal seed crystals in the hexagonal crystal system; obtaining an intermediate seed crystal in the hexagonal crystal system by performing a gap growth on the seed crystal in the hexagonal crystal system to be grown under a first setting condition; and obtaining a target seed crystal in the hexagonal crystal system by performing an epitaxial growth on the intermediate seed crystal in the hexagonal crystal system under a second setting condition.

The present disclosure provides a device for preparing a crystal and a method for growing a crystal. The device may include a growth chamber configured to execute a crystal growth; and a temperature control system configured to heat the growth chamber to cause that a radial temperature difference in the growth chamber does not exceed a first preset range of an average temperature in the growth chamber during the crystal growth. The method may include placing a seed crystal and a source material in a growth chamber to grow a crystal; and controlling a heating component based on information of a temperature sensing component, to cause that a radial temperature difference in the growth chamber does not exceed a first preset range of an average temperature in the growth chamber during a crystal growth.

A method for forming a conformal group III/V layer on a silicon substrate and the resulting substrate with the group III/V layers formed thereon. The method includes removing the native oxide from the substrate, positioning a substrate within a processing chamber, heating the substrate to a first temperature, cooling the substrate to a second temperature, flowing a group III precursor into the processing chamber, maintaining the second temperature while flowing a group III precursor and a group V precursor into the processing chamber until a conformal layer is formed, heating the processing chamber to an annealing temperature, while stopping the flow of the group III precursor, and cooling the processing chamber to the second temperature. Deposition of the III/V layer may be made selective through the use of halide gas etching which preferentially etches dielectric regions.

A semiconductor device production system using a laser crystallization method is provided which can avoid forming grain boundaries in a channel formulation region of a TFT, thereby preventing grain boundaries rom lowering the mobility of the TFT greatly, from lowering ON current, and from increasing OFF current. Rectangular or stripe pattern depression and projection portions are formed on an insulating film. A semiconductor film is formed on the insulating film. The semiconductor film is irradiated with continuous wave laser light by running the laser light along the stripe pattern depression and projection portions of the insulating film or along the major or minor axis direction of the rectangle. Although continuous wave laser light is most preferred among laser light, it is also possible to use pulse oscillation laser light in irradiating the semiconductor film.
