PROCESS CHAMBER APPARATUS, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING A GAS FLOW PATTERN |
摘要 |
Process chamber gas flow control apparatus may include, or be included in, a process chamber configured to process a substrate therein. The gas flow control apparatus may include a valve configured to seal an exhaust port in the process chamber. The valve may be moveable in the X, Y, and Z directions relative to the exhaust port to adjust a gas flow pattern (including, e.g., flow rate and/or flow uniformity) within the process chamber. Methods of adjusting a flow of a process gas within a process chamber are also provided, as are other aspects. |
