CVD is a new technology for preparing inorganic materials that has been developed in recent decades. CVD has been widely used to purify substances, develop new crystals, and deposit a variety of single-crystal, polycrystalline, or glassy inorganic thin film materials.
[0003] When materials and workpieces undergo chemical vapor deposition in a furnace tube, the deposition process causes the material to deposit on the outer wall of the workpiece on the one hand, and on the other hand, it will adhere to the inside of the furnace tube, increasing the friction between the workpiece and the furnace tube, and also forming a blockage inside the tube, making it difficult for the workpiece to be discharged from the furnace tube.
