| 20110174213 | Vapor Phase Epitaxy System - A vapor phase epitaxy system includes a platen that supports substrates for vapor phase epitaxy and a gas injector. The gas injector injects a first precursor gas into a first region and injects a second precursor gas into a second region. At least one electrode is positioned in the first region so that first precursor gas molecules flow proximate to the electrode. The at least one electrode is positioned to be substantially isolated from a flow of the second precursor gas. A power supply is electrically connected to the at least one electrode. The power supply generates a current that heats the at least one electrode so as to thermally activate at least some of the first precursor gas molecules flowing proximate to the at least one electrode, thereby activating first precursor gas molecules. | 07-21-2011 |
| 20100310769 | Continuous Feed Chemical Vapor Deposition System - A continuous feed CVD system includes a wafer transport mechanism that transport a wafer through a deposition chamber during CVD processing. The deposition chamber defines a passage for the wafer to pass through while being transported by the wafer transport mechanism. The deposition chamber includes a plurality of process chambers that are isolated by barriers which maintain separate process chemistry in each of the plurality of process chambers. Each of the plurality of process chambers includes a gas input port and a gas exhaust port, and a plurality of CVD gas sources. At least two of the plurality of CVD gas sources are coupled to the gas input port of each of the plurality of process chambers. | 12-09-2010 |
| 20100310766 | Roll-to-Roll Chemical Vapor Deposition System - A roll-to-roll CVD system includes at least two rollers that transport a web through a deposition chamber during CVD processing. The deposition chamber defines a passage for the web to pass through while being transported by the at least two rollers. The deposition chamber includes a plurality of process chambers that are isolated by barriers which maintain separate process chemistry in each of the plurality of process chambers. Each of the plurality of process chambers includes a gas input port and a gas exhaust port, and a plurality of CVD gas sources. At least two of the plurality of CVD gas sources is coupled to the gas input port of each of the plurality of process chambers. | 12-09-2010 |
