AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the existing technology, the accuracy of liquid level sensor in measuring the remaining liquid depends on the number and spacing of the points. It cannot accurately obtain the content of precursor carried by the carrier gas in situ. Especially in the absence of liquid level sensor and carrier gas, it is impossible to accurately measure the storage of liquid precursor.

Method used

By evacuating and restoring the source bottle, the diffusion coefficient is calculated, and the distance from the surface of the liquid precursor to the pressure sensor is measured using the Gaussian error function and a pressure sensor, thereby determining the remaining amount of the liquid precursor.

Benefits of technology

Accurate measurement of liquid precursor reserves was achieved without liquid level sensors or carrier gas, making it suitable for liquid precursor source bottles in ALD processes and improving the accuracy and reliability of measurements.
