发明名称 Methods and apparatus for in-situ cleaning of a process chamber
摘要 Methods and apparatus for in-situ cleaning of substrate processing chambers are provided herein. A substrate processing chamber may include a chamber body enclosing an inner volume; a chamber lid removably coupled to the chamber body and including a first flow channel fluidly coupled to the inner volume to selectively open or seal the inner volume to or from a first outlet; a chamber floor including a second flow channel fluidly coupled to the inner volume to selectively open or seal the inner volume to or from a first inlet; and a pump ring disposed in and in fluid communication with the inner volume, the pump ring comprising an upper chamber fluidly coupled to a lower chamber, and a second outlet fluidly coupled to the lower chamber to selectively open or seal the inner volume to or from the second outlet.

主权项 1. A substrate processing chamber, comprising: a chamber body enclosing an inner volume; a chamber lid removably coupled to an upper portion of the chamber body, the chamber lid including a first flow channel fluidly coupled to the inner volume and adapted to selectively open the inner volume to a first outlet or to seal the inner volume from the first outlet; a chamber floor coupled to a lower portion of the chamber body, the chamber floor including a second flow channel fluidly coupled to the inner volume and adapted to selectively open the inner volume to a first inlet or seal the inner volume from the first inlet; and a pump ring disposed in the inner volume and in fluid communication with the inner volume, the pump ring comprising an upper chamber fluidly coupled to a lower chamber, and a second outlet fluidly coupled to the lower chamber and adapted to selectively open the inner volume to the second outlet or seal the inner volume from the second outlet, wherein the second flow channel, the inner volume, the pump ring, and the second outlet comprise a first flow path, and the second flow channel, the inner volume, the first flow channel, and the first outlet comprise a second flow path.
