Embodiment Construction

[0023] This type of CVD reactor (see figure 1 ) has a CVD reactor housing 1 which is gas-tight, may consist of stainless steel and may have cooled walls. The CVD reactor housing has, in particular, a cover 2 , a side wall 3 , which may be formed cylindrically, and a bottom 4 opposite the cover 2 . The cover 2, the side walls 3 and the bottom 4 may be cooled.

[0024] Process gas can be fed into the process chamber by means of the gas inlet device 6 . The process chamber is delimited upwardly by the process chamber cover 11 and downwardly by the base 5 . The base 5 is made of graphite or another electrically conductive material and can be driven in rotation about the axis A around the carrier 12 . A rotary drive 20 is used for this. A rotation sensor (not shown) is provided, by means of which the corresponding rotational angular position of the base 5 can be determined. The angle of rotation is transmitted to a controller not shown.

[0025] Below the susceptor 5 there is...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device and a method for the thermal treatment of substrates using a susceptor (5), which can be heated with a heater (13) and driven in rotation about a rotation axis (A) by a rotary drive (20), to hold the at least one substrate.Means (14, 14'; 15, 16) are provided to influence the heat transfer to or from the susceptor (5) in a locally limited manner synchronized with the rotary movement of the susceptor (5) to equalize local temperature differences on the rotating susceptor (5).In particular, a temperature control gas with changing heat conduction properties is periodically fed in a periodically pulsed manner through a feed opening (14') into a gap (10) between the susceptor (5) and a cooling unit (30).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for thermally treating substrates, which has a base for receiving at least one substrate, which can be heated by a heating device and driven in rotation by a rotary drive about an axis of rotation. [0002] The invention also relates to a method for thermally treating substrates, in which method a susceptor carries at least one substrate, is heated by a heating device, and is driven in rotation about an axis of rotation. Background technique [0003] Document US Pat. No. 8,249,436 B2 describes a device and a method in which heat is introduced into a susceptor rotating about an axis of rotation in a locally limited manner by means of a pulsed laser beam. [0004] Devices and methods of the aforementioned type are also known, for example from document DE 10 2009 044 276 A1. A device of the aforementioned type is embodied by a CVD reactor having a gas-tight housing in which the process chamber is located. The bottom of ...
