| 20080206462 | BATCH DEPOSITION SYSTEM USING A SUPERCRITICAL DEPOSITION PROCESS - A batch deposition chamber for use in a supercritical deposition process is divided into a plurality of compartments each adapted to receive therein a wafer. A supercritical fluid is introduced into the compartments at the same flow rate via respective feed tubes for depositing a film on the wafers. Each of the ambient temperature and the surface temperature of the wafers is controlled at the same temperature among all the wafers by using temperature sensors provided for the respective wafers and a temperature controller. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20080311295 | Film deposition processing apparatus and film deposition processing method - A film deposition processing apparatus and a film deposition method for forming a uniform film on a surface of a fine structure formed on a wafer using a supercritical fluid as a medium are provided. Film deposition is performed using a film deposition processing apparatus, comprising: a film deposition processing chamber; a holder which holds the wafer on a top surface inside the film deposition processing chamber; a heater which heats the wafer held on the top surface inside the film deposition processing chamber and is embedded in an upper portion of the film deposition processing chamber; a stirrer which stirs an inside of the film deposition processing chamber; a mixer which prepares a precursor solution made by dissolving at least one of precursors in the supercritical fluid; and a precursor solution inlet which introduces the precursor solution inside the film deposition processing chamber. | 12-18-2008 |
| 20090020068 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING OF SUBSTRATE - A method of manufacturing a substrate is provided for readily processing a substrate in the presence of a supercritical fluid in a deposition step, an etching step, a resist peeling step and the like. The method of manufacturing a substrate of the present invention is a method of manufacturing a substrate for processing a surface of the substrate by filling a liquid fluid in a reaction chamber in which the substrate is placed, and reacting a precursor solved in the liquid fluid in the vicinity of the surface of the substrate, wherein the substrate is placed on a ceiling of the reaction chamber with the surface of the substrate oriented downward. | 01-22-2009 |
| 20090092856 | APPARATUS FOR FEEDING SOLID FILM-FORMATION MATERIAL - A solid film-formation material feeding apparatus includes a supercritical fluid supply source for supplying supercritical fluid; and a column which is connected to the supercritical fluid supply source, and has a hollow part which is filled with a filler which is inactive for the supercritical fluid, wherein the hollow part can be further filled with a solid film-formation material which is soluble in the supercritical fluid. A column assembly which includes a plurality of the columns which may be connected in parallel to each other. | 04-09-2009 |
