PROCESS KIT HAVING REDUCED EROSION SENSITIVITY

摘要

Process kits for use in a semiconductor process chambers have been provided herein. In some embodiments, a process kit for a semiconductor process chamber includes a body configured to rest about a periphery of a substrate support and having sidewalls defining an opening corresponding to a central region of the substrate support. A lip extends from the sidewalls of the body into the opening, wherein a portion of an upper surface of the lip is configured to be disposed beneath a substrate during processing. A first distance measured between opposing sidewalls of the body is greater than a width across the upper surface of a substrate to be disposed within the opening by at least about 7.87 mm.
