Problems solved by technology

For example, one of the causes is considered to be that the reproducibility of the pressure distribution in the buffer chamber and the reproducibility of the membrane characteristics cannot be obtained due to the dimensional variation of the flow path for supplying the process gas to the buffer chamber.

Abstract

A vapor phase growth apparatus of an embodiment is provided with: a reaction chamber; a first gas chamber provided over the reaction chamber and into which a first process gas is introduced; a plurality of first gas guide tubes with a predetermined length for delivering the first process gas from the first gas chamber to the reaction chamber; and a first adjusting guide tube inserted into the upper side of at least one of the plurality of first gas guide tubes. The first adjusting guide tube has an upper-end portion with an annular protrusion provided on the outer periphery thereof, and is detachable from the first gas guide tube.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a vapor phase growth apparatus for forming a film by supplying a gas to a substrate. Background technique [0002] As a method of forming a high-quality semiconductor film, there is an epitaxial growth technique in which a single crystal film is formed by vapor phase growth on the surface of a substrate. In a vapor phase growth apparatus using an epitaxial growth technique, a substrate is placed on a holder in a reaction chamber maintained at normal pressure or reduced pressure. [0003] Then, while heating the substrate, a process gas including a raw material of the film is supplied to the reaction chamber through the buffer chamber at the upper part of the reaction chamber. Thermal reaction of the process gas is generated on the surface of the substrate to form an epitaxial single crystal film on the surface of the substrate. [0004] For example, reproducibility of characteristics of films formed under the same pro...
