Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of MPCVD equipment technology, specifically to a gas flow equalization device for MPCVD equipment. Background Technology

[0002] MPCVD (Microwave Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition) is a technology widely used in semiconductor manufacturing and thin film deposition. In MPCVD equipment, uniform gas distribution is one of the key factors ensuring the quality and performance of the deposited thin film. However, traditional gas distribution devices have the following problems:

[0003] 1. Uneven gas distribution: Due to differences in gas flow paths, the gas concentration in local areas may be too high or too low, which can affect the uniformity and density of the film.

[0004] 2. Unstable airflow velocity: Traditional devices have difficulty effectively controlling airflow velocity, which easily generates turbulence and further exacerbates the unevenness of gas distribution. To address this, we propose a gas flow equalization device for MPCVD equipment. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the existing defects and provide a gas flow equalization device for MPCVD equipment, which can stabilize the gas flow rate, improve the gas uniformity, and adjust the airflow size according to adjustment needs, thus effectively solving the problems in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a gas flow equalization device for MPCVD equipment, comprising a gas injection tank and a gas inlet assembly;

[0007] Air injection tank: A flow guiding component is installed at the lower end, and an adjustment component is installed inside the air injection tank. The flow guiding component is connected to the adjustment component.

[0008] Air intake assembly: includes an air intake box, baffles and connecting rings. The upper end of the air injection tank has an air inlet. A connecting ring is fixed inside the air inlet. The upper end of the connecting ring is fixed with the air intake box. The connecting ring communicates with the inner cavity of the air intake box. The air intake box has uniformly distributed baffles fixed inside. By setting the air intake assembly, the flow rate of the gas can be effectively stabilized.

[0009] Furthermore, the flow guiding assembly includes a flow guiding barrel and a gas guiding pipe. The lower end of the gas injection barrel is fixed with the flow guiding barrel, and the lower edge of the flow guiding barrel has evenly distributed openings. The gas guiding pipe is fixed inside the openings. The lower end of the gas injection barrel has evenly distributed flow guiding holes, and the upper end of the gas guiding pipe is fixed inside the flow guiding holes. By setting the flow guiding assembly, the gas is evenly injected into the interior of the MPCVD equipment.

[0010] Furthermore, the flow guiding assembly also includes a sealing disc, connecting strips, connecting rods, and springs. An opening is formed on the circumferential surface of the air guiding pipe, and a sealing disc is disposed inside the opening. A connecting rod is fixed to the surface of the sealing disc. A uniformly distributed connecting strip is fixed to the lower end of the air injection tank. A connecting hole is formed on the side of the connecting strip. The connecting rod is slidably connected to the interior of the corresponding connecting hole. A spring is sleeved on the circumferential surface of the connecting rod. One end of the spring is fixed to the side of the connecting strip, and the other end of the spring is fixed to the surface of the corresponding sealing disc.

[0011] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly includes a motor, a turntable, metal wires, and a conical guide shroud. The conical guide shroud is fixed in the middle of the lower end of the gas injection tank. The motor is installed at the lower end of the gas injection tank and is located inside the conical guide shroud. A turntable is fixed on the output shaft of the motor. Metal wires are evenly distributed on the circumference of the turntable. The end of the metal wire away from the turntable is fixed to the end face of the corresponding connecting rod. The input end of the motor is electrically connected to the output end of an external PLC controller. By setting the adjustment assembly, all the sealing discs are moved, thereby adjusting the gas flow rate of the gas guide pipe.

[0012] Furthermore, an air inlet pipe is fixed inside the air injection hole on the upper side of the air inlet box, and a connecting flange is fixed at the upper end of the circumferential surface of the air inlet pipe. The air inlet box is connected to an external air injection device by setting the air inlet pipe and the connecting flange.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This gas flow equalization device for MPCVD equipment has the following advantages:

[0014] 1. By setting the adjustment component, the external PLC controller can automatically control the motor to work based on the pressure data measured by the internal pressure sensor of the MPCVD equipment during use. The motor drives the turntable to rotate, the turntable to rotate, all the metal wires to move, and all the metal wires to move, which in turn drives all the connecting rods to move and pull all the sealing discs to move. In this way, the air flow rate discharged from the gas duct can be adjusted, and the quality and performance of the deposited film can be ensured after adjustment.

[0015] 2. By setting up an air intake assembly, the gas entering the air intake box during the gas injection process will be deflected by evenly distributed baffles. After deflection, the gas flow rate can be stabilized. The gas with a stable flow rate is guided downward by a conical guide hood. After being guided, all the gas will be evenly injected into the interior of the MPCVD equipment through evenly distributed gas guide pipes. In this way, the quality and performance of the deposited film can be further ensured. Attached Figure Description

One end of spring 26 is fixed to the side of connecting bar 24, and the other end of spring 26 is fixed to the surface of the corresponding sealing disc 23. Adjustment component 3 includes motor 31, turntable 32, metal wire 33 and conical guide shroud 34. Conical guide shroud 34 is fixed in the middle of the lower end of the gas injection tank 1. Motor 31 is installed in the lower end of the gas injection tank 1. Motor 31 is located inside conical guide shroud 34. Turntable 32 is fixed on the output shaft of motor 31. Metal wire 33 is evenly distributed on the circumference of turntable 32. The end of metal wire 33 away from turntable 32 is fixed to the end face of the corresponding connecting rod 25. The input end of motor 31 is electrically connected to the output end of external PLC controller. By setting adjustment component 3, all sealing discs 23 are moved, thereby adjusting the gas flow rate of gas guide pipe 22. By setting guide component 2, gas is evenly injected into the interior of MPCVD equipment.

[0024] The air intake assembly 4 includes an air intake box 41, a baffle plate 42, and a connecting ring 43. An air inlet is provided at the upper end of the air injection tank 1.
