AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing technologies, the utilization rate of solid-state reaction sources is low, resulting in waste and particulate contamination. Furthermore, the inability to effectively monitor the remaining amount leads to high equipment maintenance costs and affects wafer yield.

Method used

A pressure sensor is used to measure the remaining amount of solid reaction source. The controller determines whether it is sufficient for wafer deposition and issues a warning or alarm when it is insufficient. Combined with a gas filter, particles are prevented from entering the reaction chamber, thus improving utilization.

Benefits of technology

This enables efficient utilization of solid-state reaction sources, reduces waste and particulate contamination, and improves wafer yield and equipment maintenance efficiency.

Abstract

本公开涉及一种用于提高固态反应源利用率的方法和装置。本公开的方法包括:使用压力传感器来确定固态反应源的剩余重量并将其转换成剩余质量,判断该剩余质量是否大于沉积预定数量的晶圆所需的固态反应源消耗质量,在判断为否的情况下发出警告并继续判断该剩余质量是否大于沉积一片晶圆所需的固态反应源消耗质量,在判断为否的情况下发出警报并终止沉积作业。
