Detailed implementation manners
[0030] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
[0031] Figure 1 The figure shows a perspective view of the reaction furnace provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 The figure shows a side view of the reaction furnace provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure in the state where the furnace opening is open. Among them, the direction indicated by arrow X is the first direction, and the direction indicated by arrow Y is the second direction. The first direction X and the second direction Y are perpendicular to each other and will not be separately emphasized hereafter. In addition, Figure 1 in order to facilitate observing the spray device in the furnace cavity, a partial position of the reaction furnace is set to be transparent.
[0032] The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a spray device, which is applied to the reaction furnace 10, as Figure 1 and Figure 2, the reaction furnace 10 is provided with a spraying device 1, and the reaction furnace 10 is provided with a furnace cavity 2a and a furnace opening communicating with the furnace cavity 2a. The spraying device 1 is installed in the furnace cavity 2a. The spraying device 1 includes a guiding member 11, a sliding member 12 and a spraying assembly 13. The guiding member 11 is arranged on one side of the reaction furnace 10 facing the furnace cavity 2a. The guiding member 11 is configured to extend into the furnace cavity 2a along the first direction X from a position close to the furnace opening. The sliding member 12 is detachably connected to the guiding member 11, and the sliding member 12 can slide relative to the guiding member 11 along the first direction X. The spraying assembly 13 is connected to the sliding member 12. The cooperation between the sliding member 12 and the guiding member 11 enables the spraying assembly 13 to be pushed into or out of the furnace cavity 2a from the furnace opening. The spraying assembly 13 is configured to introduce gas into the furnace cavity 2a.
[0033] It can be understood that the reaction furnace 10 can be, for example, the ALD reaction furnace of an ALD device. Further, the ALD reaction furnace can be a plate-type reaction furnace, that is, the ALD reaction furnace is set to a cuboid structure, and the furnace cavity 2a is set to an enclosed space that encloses a cuboid. In other embodiments, the reaction furnace 10 can also be other chemical reaction furnaces with a spraying device 1 and used for depositing thin films, without specific limitation. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the specific structure of the spraying device 1 is described in detail by taking the plate-type reaction furnace of the ALD device as an example.
[0034] It should be emphasized that the reaction furnace 10 can be set to the structure of a cylindrical furnace body 2. A process position for carrying a substrate can be provided in the furnace cavity 2a of the furnace body 2. The process position can carry the substrate through a carrier provided in the furnace cavity 2a, and the process surface of the substrate is exposed, so that the process surface can be deposited with a thin film through the ALD process.
[0035] The ALD device can also include a gas transmission system. The gas transmission system is connected to the spraying device 1 through one or more transmission pipelines 24, so that the spraying device 1 can introduce gas into the furnace cavity 2a. Specifically, in the ALD process, the precursor sources provided to the furnace cavity 2a by the gas transmission system through the spraying device 1 include one or more. The precursor sources include: gaseous sources, solid sources and liquid sources. The gaseous sources are directly connected to the spraying device 1 of the furnace cavity 2a by the transmission pipeline 24 plus a pulse valve. The solid sources and liquid sources will mainly be loaded into the source bottle by an inert gas and enter the furnace cavity 2a in a gaseous form through the transmission pipeline 24 and the spraying device 1. Through the opening and closing of the pulse valve in the gas transmission system and the spraying device 1, the precursor source gases enter the furnace cavity 2a alternately in the form of gases, so as to realize the growth of one or more layers of thin films on the process surface of the substrate.
[0036] Optionally, the reaction furnace 10 can also include an exhaust device, a tail gas treatment device, etc. that communicate with the furnace cavity 2a to ensure the stability of the air flow in the furnace cavity 2a, without specific limitation.
[0037] Optionally, the spraying assembly 13 has an air inlet and an air outlet. The air inlet is communicated with the transmission pipeline 24 of the gas transmission system through a joint, and the air outlet is configured to introduce gas into the furnace chamber 2a. It can be understood that the number, arrangement form, and setting position of the air inlet and air outlet of the spraying assembly 13 can be adaptively adjusted according to requirements. In addition, the spraying assembly 13 may specifically include a plurality of components such as a gas distribution box and a spraying chamber. After the plurality of components are assembled, the spraying assembly 13 is finally formed, and the specific structure will not be described in detail.
[0038] The spraying device 1 provided by the present disclosure can assemble the components of the spraying assembly 13 together outside the furnace chamber 2a of the reaction furnace 10, and utilize the sliding member 12 connected to the spraying assembly 13 and the guiding member 11 preset in the reaction furnace 10. The sliding member 12 and the guiding member 11 are detachably connected. The whole spraying assembly 13 can enter the furnace chamber 2a from the furnace opening, and at a position close to the furnace opening, the sliding member 12 is connected to the guiding member 11, so that the sliding member 12 cooperates with the guiding member 11, and the sliding member 12 can move relative to the guiding member 11 in the first direction X into the furnace chamber 2a. Then, under the action of an external force, the whole spraying assembly 13 is pushed into the interior of the furnace chamber 2a from the furnace opening, and then the joint of the spraying assembly 13 is connected to the transmission pipeline 24 of the gas transmission system. When the spraying device 1 needs to be overhauled, only an external force needs to be applied to the spraying assembly 13 from the furnace opening, and the sliding member 12 can move relative to the guiding member 11 in the first direction X towards the furnace opening direction, so that the spraying assembly 13 is pushed out of the reaction furnace 10 from the furnace opening, and the staff can directly disassemble and overhaul the spraying assembly 13 outside, thereby reducing the installation and disassembly difficulty of the spraying device 1 and facilitating later maintenance.
[0039] In addition, the guiding member 11 is configured to extend into the furnace chamber 2a along the first direction X from a position close to the furnace opening, which can facilitate the staff to complete the pushing or pushing out of the spraying assembly 13 at the furnace opening position without reaching into the furnace chamber 2a with their hands, further reducing the loading and unloading difficulty and improving the safety factor of the staff for loading and unloading the spraying device 1.
[0040] In an alternative embodiment, the furnace body 2 includes a main body 21, a cavity cover 22 and a furnace door 23. The main body 21 is provided with a groove having an opening. A furnace opening communicating with the groove is provided on the side wall of the main body 21. The furnace door 23 covers the furnace opening. The furnace door 23 is configured to be able to open or close the furnace opening. The cavity cover 22 is detachably connected to the main body 21. The cavity cover 22 covers the opening. The main body 21, the furnace door 23 and the cavity cover 22 enclose the groove to form a furnace cavity 2a. The guide member 11 is detachably connected to the side of the cavity cover 22 facing the furnace cavity 2a. The furnace body 2 is provided as a split structure including the main body 21 and the cavity cover 22, so that the cavity cover 22 can be opened to facilitate the installation of the guide member 11 and the installation of other components inside the main body 21. It should be emphasized that the main body 21 includes a bottom wall and a plurality of side walls that enclose the groove. The bottom wall and the plurality of side walls can be integrally formed or detachably connected, and no specific limitation is made.
[0041] Optionally, the furnace door 23 can be rotatably connected to the position corresponding to the furnace opening of the reaction furnace 10 through a rotating shaft, a hinge, etc., or can be detachably connected to the reaction furnace 10 to facilitate the opening and closing of the furnace door 23.
[0042] Optionally, in order to ensure the airtightness of the furnace cavity 2a, a sealing member can be provided at the position where the furnace door 23 contacts the furnace opening, and a sealing member can also be provided at the position where the cavity cover 22 contacts the main body 21. The sealing member can be, for example, sealing rubber, and no specific limitation is made.
[0043] Figure 3 As shown in Figure 2 a partial enlarged view of area A in Figure 4 As shown in Figure 3 a partial enlarged view of area B in Figure 5 As shown in Figure 4 a schematic diagram of the non-connected spray assembly 13 in Figure 6 As shown is a schematic diagram of the cooperation between the guide member and the sliding member in the spray device provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0044] As Figures 3 to 6 , the guide member 11 is provided with a chute 11a extending in the first direction X, and an insertion port 114 communicating with the chute 11a is provided at one end of the guide member 11 facing the furnace opening. The sliding member 12 can be inserted into the chute 11a from the insertion port 114. By using the provided chute 11a and the insertion port 114 communicating with the chute 11a, the sliding member 12 can be inserted into the chute 11a from the insertion port 114 at the furnace opening, so as to realize the detachable connection between the sliding member 12 and the guide member 11, and enable the connected sliding member 12 to slide into the furnace cavity 2a along the guide member 11, which is convenient for the staff to integrally connect the spray assembly 13 into the furnace cavity 2a, and the installation is convenient and fast.
[0045] Optionally, the chute 11a can penetrate through both ends of the guide member 11 in the first direction X, and the end of the chute 11a facing the furnace mouth is used as the insertion port 114. The shape of the insertion port 114 can match the shape of the provided chute 11a or be larger than the size of the chute 11a to facilitate the installation of the sliding member 12. It should be emphasized that the specific structure of the chute 11a can be selected according to the actual situation and is not specifically limited.
[0046] In some alternative embodiments, the guide member 11 is provided with recesses 113 on opposite sides of the chute 11a in the second direction Y, and the sliding member 12 is provided with protrusions 121 that cooperate with the recesses 113 at least on both sides in the second direction Y. After the sliding member 12 is inserted into the chute 11a from the insertion port 114, at least a part of the protrusion 121 can extend into the recess 113. The provision of the protrusion 121 and the recess 113 enables the sliding member 12 to be restricted within the chute 11a of the guide member 11 and move along the first direction X, preventing the sliding member 12 from falling off, thereby integrally mounting the spray assembly 13 on the cavity cover 22 and further improving the connection stability between the guide member 11 and the sliding member 12.
[0047] Optionally, the cross-section of the protrusion 121 in the first direction X is provided with a V-shaped protrusion structure, and the cross-section of the recess 113 in the first direction X is provided with a V-shaped groove structure that cooperates with the V-shaped protrusion. Further, it avoids the sliding member 12 from easily falling off in the state of cooperating with the guide member 11. It should be emphasized that the cross-sections of the protrusion 121 and the recess 113 can also be provided with other shaped mating structures, such as circular, wavy, etc., and are not specifically limited.
[0048] In some embodiments, the guide member 11 includes a plurality of first pulleys 111 and a plurality of second pulleys 112. The plurality of first pulleys 111 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X. The first pulleys 111 are connected to the cavity cover 22. The first pulleys 111 can rotate in a horizontal plane. A recess 113 is arranged on the circumferential side of the first pulleys 111. The plurality of second pulleys 112 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X. The second pulleys 112 are connected to the cavity cover 22. The second pulleys 112 can rotate in a horizontal plane. The second pulleys 112 and the first pulleys 111 are arranged at intervals in the second direction Y, so as to enclose a chute 11a extending along the first direction X between the first pulleys 111 and the second pulleys 112. A recess 113 is arranged on the circumferential side of the second pulleys 112. The sliding member 12 can rollingly contact the first pulleys 111 and the second pulleys 112 along the first direction X. By using the provided first pulleys 111 and second pulleys 112, the sliding member 12 can be inserted from the insertion opening 114, and the protrusion 121 of the sliding member 12 is restricted within the recesses 113 provided on the first pulleys 111 and the second pulleys 112. When the sliding member 12 is pushed into the furnace cavity 2a along the first direction X under an external force, the first pulleys 111 and the second pulleys 112 can rotate in a horizontal plane. The rotation of the pulleys reduces the friction coefficient at the mating position of the protrusion 121 and the recess 113 during the movement of the sliding member 12, thereby reducing wear and increasing the service life.
[0049] It can be understood that the plurality of first pulleys 111 and the plurality of second pulleys 112 can be arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. For example, along the first direction X, in the direction from the furnace opening into the furnace cavity 2a, on the side facing the furnace opening between the first first pulley 111 and the first second pulley 112, an insertion opening 114 is enclosed. The second first pulley 111 and the second second pulley 112 are arranged at intervals on the side away from the furnace opening, and so on, so that the gaps between the plurality of first pulleys 111 and the plurality of second pulleys 112 form a chute 11a extending along the first direction X. The distance between any two adjacent first pulleys 111 along the first direction X can be the same or different. The distance between any two adjacent second pulleys 112 can be the same or different. Along the second direction Y, the first pulleys 111 and the second pulleys 112 can be arranged opposite to each other or offset. They can be adaptively adjusted according to actual needs and are not specifically limited.
[0050] Optionally, the guide member 11 can include a mounting seat 115. The mounting seat 115 is detachably connected to the cavity cover 22. The plurality of first pulleys 111 and the plurality of second pulleys 112 are connected to the mounting seat 115 through rotating shafts, so as to facilitate the removal of the entire guide member 11 by disassembling the mounting seat 115, which is convenient and fast.
[0051] In some alternative embodiments, a pulley may also be used as the sliding member 12, and the guiding member 11 may be directly configured as a chute 11a structure formed in the mounting base 115 and extending along the first direction X. The pulley and the corresponding side walls of the chute 11a are provided with matching protrusions 121 and depressions 113 so that the pulley can roll along the chute 11a. The guiding member 11 and the sliding member 12 may also adopt other mating structures capable of achieving sliding, without specific limitations.
[0052] Figure 7 The figure shows a schematic diagram of a spray device provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure being disposed on a cavity cover. Figure 8 The figure shows a front view of the spray device provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure in cooperation with the cavity cover. Figure 9 As shown in Figure 8 the partial enlarged view of region C in Figure 10 The figure shows a side view of the spray device provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure in cooperation with the cavity cover.
[0053] As Figures 7 to 10 , the spray device 1 further includes a blocking member 14. The blocking member 14 is detachably connected to the side of the guiding member 11 facing the furnace opening, and the blocking member 14 can block at least a part of the insertion opening 114 in the first direction X. The blocking member 14 is configured to prevent the sliding member 12 from disengaging from the chute 11a. After the spray assembly 13 is pushed into place from the furnace opening, the blocking member 14 is disposed at the insertion opening 114 to limit the sliding member 12 from moving along the guiding member 11 towards the furnace opening direction under external forces such as vibration, ensuring the stability of the spray assembly 13 installed in the furnace cavity 2a.
[0054] It can be understood that the blocking member 14 may be, for example, configured as a plate-like structure on one side of the mounting base 115, and the blocking member 14 can be detachably connected to the mounting base 115 through bolts. When it is necessary to push the spray assembly 13 out of the furnace opening, only the blocking member 14 needs to be disassembled, and then the entire spray assembly 13 can be pulled out, which is convenient and fast.
[0055] In some embodiments, the spray device 1 further includes a limiting member 15. The limiting member 15 is connected to the guiding member 11, and the limiting member 15 is disposed on the side of the chute 11a away from the insertion opening 114. The limiting member 15 is configured to limit the sliding member 12 inserted from the insertion opening 114 from continuing to move along the chute 11a in the direction away from the furnace opening. The setting of the limiting member 15 enables the sliding member 12 to move along the chute 11a until it comes into contact and cooperation with the limiting member 15 during the process of pushing the spray assembly 13 into the furnace cavity 2a, at which time the spray assembly 13 cannot be further pushed, indicating that the spray assembly 13 is in place. At this time, the joint of the spray assembly 13 is connected to the transmission pipeline 24. The spray assembly 13 at this position can diffuse gas into the furnace cavity 2a more evenly.
[0056] Optionally, the limiting member 15 can be detachably connected to the side of the chute 11a away from the furnace opening. When the chute 11a is directly set as the groove structure of the mounting seat 115, the end of the chute 11a in the direction away from the furnace opening can also not penetrate the mounting seat 115, so that the side wall of the mounting seat 115 directly forms the limiting member 15, without specific limitation.
[0057] It can be understood that when the chute 11a is composed of a plurality of first pulleys 111 and a plurality of second pulleys 112, the limiting member 15 can be set to the same plate-like structure as the blocking member 14, and in the positive projection along the first direction X, the limiting member 15 can cover at least part of the insertion opening 114, thereby preventing the sliding member 12 from moving excessively and disengaging from the guiding member 11.
[0058] In some embodiments, the spraying device 1 further includes at least one first mounting member 16 and at least one second mounting member 17, which are respectively connected to the sliding member 12, and the first mounting member 16 and the second mounting member 17 are oppositely arranged on both sides of the sliding member 12 in the second direction Y, and at least part of the spraying assembly 13 is located between the first mounting member 16 and the second mounting member 17 in the second direction Y, so that the first mounting member 16 and the second mounting member 17 are respectively detachably connected to the side wall of the spraying assembly 13. The spraying assembly 13 is detachably connected by the provided first mounting member 16 and second mounting member 17, avoiding interference with the air inlet and outlet holes of the spraying assembly 13.
[0059] Optionally, a plurality of first mounting members 16 can be provided, and the plurality of first mounting members 16 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X. A plurality of second mounting members 17 can be provided, and the plurality of second mounting members 17 are arranged at intervals along the first direction X, and the plurality of second mounting members 17 can be arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of first mounting members 16.
