[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0021] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used in this utility model should have the usual meanings understood by people with ordinary skills in the field to which this utility model belongs. The "first", "second" and similar words used in this utility model do not indicate any order, quantity or importance, but are only used to distinguish different components. "Include" or "comprise" and similar words mean that the elements or objects appearing before the word include the elements or objects listed after the word and their equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects. "Connect" or "connected" and similar words are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but may include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect.

When the absolute position of the object being described changes, the relative position relationship may also change accordingly.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an improved semiconductor gas shower head is applied to gas shower equipment, including a cylinder 3, an inner chassis 1 is fixedly provided at one end of the cylinder 3, an annular outer edge 2 is fixedly provided at the other end of the cylinder 3, a plurality of channels 4 are provided inside the inner chassis, each of the channels 4 is inclined, and an air inlet 5 and an air outlet 6 are provided at both ends of each channel 4, each of the air inlet 5 is connected to the top surface of the inner chassis 1, and each of the air outlet 6 is connected to the bottom surface of the inner chassis 1, the inner wall diameter of the cylinder 3 is the same as the inner wall diameter of the annular outer edge 2, and the cylinder 3 is used to be installed on the spray pipe of the gas shower equipment.

[0023] For example, the shower head device is designed to be concave in shape to form a certain concave surface. A plurality of holes 4 are evenly distributed on the inner chassis 1. These holes 4 are arranged at an inclined angle to ensure that the gas can cover the wafer surface at an optimized spray angle.

[0024] As an optional embodiment, the shape of the channel 4 is trumpet-shaped, and the aperture of the air inlet 5 is smaller than the aperture of the air outlet 6.

[0025] For example, by designing the channel 4 into a trumpet shape, not only the flow resistance of the gas in the hole is reduced, but also the overall spraying efficiency is improved.

[0026] For example, in order to ensure that the shower head can work stably and long-term in the semiconductor manufacturing environment, the alloy material not only has excellent corrosion resistance and can resist the erosion of corrosive gases and chemicals commonly used in the semiconductor manufacturing process, but also has excellent high-temperature resistance and can maintain structural stability and performance reliability in high-temperature environments. Therefore, the service life of the shower head is significantly extended, reducing the company's operating costs and replacement frequency.

[0027] As an optional embodiment, the aperture of the air inlet 5 is 0.4-0.6 mm.

[0028] As an optional embodiment, the aperture of the air outlet 6 is 0.7-0.9 mm.

[0029] As an optional embodiment, the distance between adjacent air inlets is 1 mm.

[0030] As an optional embodiment, the distance between adjacent air outlets is 0.5 mm.

[0031] As an optional embodiment, the cylinder 3, the inner chassis 1 and the annular outer edge 2 are all made of a high-performance alloy material that is corrosion-resistant and high-temperature-resistant.

[0032] The main working principle of the present invention is as follows: the shower head equipment is designed to be concave in shape to form a certain concave surface, and a plurality of channels 4 are evenly distributed on the inner chassis 1. These channels 4 are arranged at an inclined angle to ensure that the gas can cover the wafer surface at an optimized injection angle. At the same time, the channel 4 adopts a "trumpet-shaped" design to accelerate the gas flow rate and form a pressure difference that is conducive to uniform distribution of the gas during the ejection process, ensuring that the gas can be evenly sprayed and improving the quality and uniformity of the film.

[0033] Those skilled in the art will understand that the discussion of any of the above embodiments is merely illustrative and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention to these examples. Within the spirit and principles of the present invention, the technical features of the above embodiments or different embodiments may be combined, the steps may be implemented in any order, and many other variations exist in the various aspects of the present invention described above, which are not provided in detail for the sake of clarity.
