2 Limitations of current commercial CVD reactor design Inflexible Process throughput / uniformity trade-offs Few control inputs Limited wafer access and few sensors

3 The programmable reactor concept - goals To achieve true 2D control of reactant gas composition across the wafer surface To enable single wafer combinatorial experiments for process and materials discovery Subsequently reprogrammable for across-wafer uniformity Library wafer: programmed nonuniformity Uniform deposition at specified conditions

4 Authors Moslehi, Davis, Matthews (1995) Van der Stricht, Moerman, Demeester, Crawley, Thruch (1997) Theodoropoulos, Mountziaris, Moffat, Han, Shadid, Thrush (2000) Wang, Wang, Mahanty, Komatsu, Inaoka, Nishino, Sakai (2000) Representative showerhead designs for gas composition or uniformity control Design innovation 3 annular zone showerhead Separate TMG, NH3 injection to reduce gas phase reactions Annual ring showerhead with alternating TMG, NH3 inlet rings Stacked gas delivery system with inert flow forcing reactants to wafer Materia l system W CVD GaN MOCVD GaN MOCVD GaN MOCVD Chamber center line Heated stage Annular-segmented showerhead gas inlets Designs above exhaust in conventional ways Wafer Inert Reactant Inert Segmented designs are subject to considerable inter-segment convective transport Gas outlet

5 Recirculating segmented showerhead design Gas outlets Gas inlet Gas outlets Residual gas drawn back up through showerhead Periodic gas flow fields minimize inter-segment convective transport Residual gas can be sampled from each segment, simplifying spatial composition measurements

6 Control of across-wafer gas composition gradients 2 feed/exhaust segments wafer plane Inter-segment region mass transfer is governed by diffusion Composition gradients are controlled by Feed composition to each segment Showerhead/wafer spacing

7 Design and construction of the 3-zone prototype Early simulation of 2D diffusive transport above wafer surface for W CVD ULVAC vacuum chamber modified for 3-segment prototype

11 Inter-segment diffusion increases with segment/wafer spacing 1mm 3mm 5mm

12 Programmable CVD reactor data archiving/analysis Significant simulation research is needed to understand prototype and materials produced by prototype Large amount of heterogeneous data types, incomplete data sets Represent data in XML, Java parser methods called from MATLAB applications Laboratory for Advanced Material Processing Real-time process data Processed exp data Archived exp data (XML) ISR Detailed simulator development & validation (MATLAB, Java) Gas composition settings to each segment Off-line metrology data Reduced models, process recipes (XML, Java) Reduced models (XML, Java) Educational case studies: data, simulations (XML, http) Off-campus physical prop, chem kinetics databases (XML)
