The heater blocks such as heater 112 that vaporizer 110 has framework wall 111 and is provided with in framework wall 111.Framework wall 111 has the peristome 111a that aerosolizing part 120 has been installed.Aerosolizing part 120 has raw material supplying pipe 121, the liquid charging stocks such as raw material that it is supplied with the organic metal raw material or dissolved the organic metal raw material in solvent.Aerosolizing part 120 also has: supply with spraying such as argon gas with gas (for example Ar, Ne, N 2) spraying with gas supply pipe 122; The spray nozzle 123 that above-mentioned raw materials spraying is nebulized.Spray nozzle 123 is from each pore ejection raw material (liquid, for example organo metallic material) and spraying gas, vaporific thus ejection.
Unloading part 130 is parts of sending to supply lines 141 at the gas raw material of gasification space 110A gasification.Unloading part 130 has sidewall 131, forms inner space 130A on the gasification space 110A of sidewall 131 side recess shape ground.In the 130A of inner space, set the heat transfer part of the outstanding column of protuberance shape.At heater blocks 132 such as sidewall 131 inside (accepting hole 131a is with reference to Fig. 2) configuration heaters.The inner space 130A of unloading part 130 is communicated with above-mentioned gasification space 110A and supply lines 141.And, if unloading part 130 is the positions in the face of gasification space 111A, also can be configured in any side of gasification space 110A.
In the 130A of inner space, configurating filtered parts 133, feasible mouthful (gas vent) 131SO that sends that covers towards supply lines 141.As filter element 133, can use the filter element that constitutes by filter with aeration.For example, can enumerate the filter element that porous material, the filter with a plurality of pores, the material that presses solidly fiber, mesh (mesh) material etc. are constituted.More particularly, can use the filtering material that the metallic fiber (for example stainless steel fibre) of high temperature resistant (for example, about 180 ℃~350 ℃, but suitably setting according to the gasification temperature or the decomposition temperature of raw material) is fixed into nonwoven fabrics shape or sintering shape.For example, the diameter of above-mentioned metallic fiber is about 0.1~3.0mm.Particularly, preferred, use heat conductivity agglomerated material high, that sintering is spherical and other bulk material constitutes.As the constituent material of bulk material, can enumerate non-ferrous metal materials such as nonmetallic materials such as pottery, quartz or stainless steel, aluminium, titanium, nickel and their alloy material etc.And, about the scope of the aforesaid way of the structure of filter element and material, be general in described below whole execution modes.
Fig. 2 A is the situation of above-mentioned unloading part 130 is seen in expression from gasification space 110A side inner side figure.The outer edge of filter element 133 contacts and is connected and fixed with sidewall on every side 131, the feasible flow area that covers above-mentioned inner space 130A fully.More particularly, the outer edge of filter element 133 is fixed on the sidewall 131 by hold-down screw 138 grades.Position beyond the above-mentioned outer edge of filter element 133 sets from the outstanding to the inside heat transfer part 135,137 of sidewall 131.More particularly, filter element 133 is by heat transfer part 135,137 and sidewall 131 thermo-contacts.That is, heat transfer part 135,137 also has the function as the holding components of supporting filter element 133.Heat transfer part 135,137 is made of the good metal of heat conductivity (for example stainless steel etc.).The cross section of heat transfer part 135 constitutes oval-shaped column, and the cross section of heat transfer part 137 constitutes circular column.These heat transfer parts 135,137 are heated by the heater blocks such as heater of configuration in sidewall 131 in the example shown in the figure.But heat transfer part also can be made of heater block itself, and in addition, also it doesn't matter to imbed heater block in the inside of heat transfer part.
At the gasification space 110A of filter element 133 side configuration shutter 134.Shutter 134 is made of heat conductivity metal materials such as for example stainless steels.Shutter 134 is faced with gasification space 110A, makes directly not to be attached on the filter element 133 from the raw material mist of spray nozzle 123 sprayings etc.By like this, can suppress the temperature reduction of filter element 133, the mist that will adhere to positively gasifies, and stops up so can reduce the mesh of filter element 133.Here, configuration shutter 134 makes basic plane earth cover filter element 133.Between shutter 134 and filter element 133, spread all over filter element 133 whole, form spatial portion (the perhaps gas passage portion) 130D that the raw material that makes gasification diffuses through.Spatial portion 130D heats by heating shutter 134 and filter element 133 by heat transfer part 135,137.
Around shutter 134 134b of flow-through opening portion is set, by the 134b of flow-through opening portion, is communicated with gasification space 110A and inner space 130A, the gas raw material of gasification can be sent efficiently.In addition, on shutter 134, form peristome 134a in spray nozzle 123 sides.Strengthen the aperture area in above-mentioned gap by peristome 134a, so, from gasification space 110A to the easy flowing gas raw material of the inner space 130A that disposes filter element 133.Because form peristome 134a, the spray angle scope of spray nozzle 123 is defined in fact, so in spray nozzle 123 sides, the mist of spraying from spray nozzle 123 is difficult to directly arrive unloading part 130.
Fig. 2 B, C, D are the inner side figure of the modification of expression shutter.In the shutter 134 ' shown in Fig. 2 B,, form peristome 134a ' continuously or on whole periphery ground along periphery in the position that overlaps with filter element 133.At the shutter shown in Fig. 2 C 134 " in, form a plurality of peristome 134a discretely along periphery ", make corresponding with the peripheral part of filter element 133.And formed peristome can be slot-shaped (situation that also comprises concentric circles) on shutter.
In the shutter 134X shown in Fig. 2 D, do not form peristome at itself, so shutter 134X covers the integral body of filter element 133.In this case, by the 134b of flow-through opening portion (A sees figures.1.and.2) around the shutter, gasification space 110A and inner space 130A can fully be communicated with.And like that, if shutter 134X covers the integral body of filter element 133, the residual mist that just has raw material is difficult to directly be attached to the advantage on the filter element 133 shown in Fig. 2 D.
Shutter 134 is fixed on the heat transfer part 135 by liner 136 with above-mentioned filter element 133.Liner 136 is made of the metals such as parts, for example Al or stainless steel of good thermal conduction, pottery etc.And hold-down screw 136a is a fixed part, and shutter 134 and liner 136 are fixed on the heat transfer part 135.Also can use identical therewith fixed part, be used for filter element 133 is fixed to heat transfer part 137.Filter element 133 and shutter 134 receive heater block 132 liberated heats from thermo-contact by heat transfer part 135 and liner 136, and simultaneously, reception is heated thus from the radiant heat of the inner face of the framework wall 111 of the vaporizer 110 of contiguous gasification space 110A.
In this embodiment, the raw material of supplying with from raw material supplying pipe 121 is sprayed to gasification space 110A by spray nozzle 123.Here, the mist of the raw material of spraying, a part awing gasifies, and simultaneously, another part is heated, gasifies by arriving the inner face by the framework wall 111 of heater block 112 heating.For gasified raw material, vaporizer 110, the particularly inner face of framework wall 111, by heater block 112 be heated to decomposition temperature than raw material low, than the high temperature range of the gasification temperature of raw material.This temperature for example is about 100~350 ℃.
Like this, the gas raw material in that gasification space 110A generates passes through filter element 133 around shutter 134, import to inner space 130A.In the gas raw material in importing to inner space 130A, be included in the trickle residual mist that does not gasify among the gasification space 110A.These residual mists arrive filter element 133, are captured, and utilize here from heater block 132 and heat by the heat that heat transfer part 135,137 is transmitted to filter element 133, once more gasification.Preferably, filter element 133 also is heated to and the identical temperature range of above-mentioned vaporizer essence.
And preferred, above-mentioned heat transfer part 135,137 spreads all over filter element 133 on the flowing path section of gas raw material integral body is decentralized configuration substantially equably.By like this, the heating and filtering parts 133 more equably, can improve the gasification efficiency of residual mist, and in addition, the silk screen that can further reduce filter element stops up.
In illustrated embodiment, the outer edge of filter element contacts (being connected and fixed) with the inner face of unloading part, and this outer edge also receives heat and heats from this inner face thus.And, also can come the heating and filtering parts by heater block being set at above-mentioned heat transfer part.
Shutter 134 prevents from directly to arrive filter element 133 from the mist of spray nozzle 123 sprayings.For this reason, prevented this situation: filter element 133 seizes heat by a large amount of mists, and result's ability of adhering to mist that causes gasifying partly reduces at assigned position.Therefore, prevented owing to cause mesh in this position and stop up, and cause the sendout of gas raw material to reduce or vaporizer in pressure rise.
In the above-described embodiment, unloading part 130 constitutes, and by unloading lower wall 131 from framework wall 111, can unload filter element 133 simply.Therefore, when problem such as mesh obstruction takes place, can be very easy to and promptly unload, clean filter element 133 in filter element 133, perhaps exchange new filter element.For this reason, can shorten preventive maintenance time, improve the actual job rate of device, also improve productivity ratio.
In the present embodiment, to shutter 134 conduction heats, also heat shutter 134 by heat transfer part 135,137.For this reason, if the raw material mist in the vaporizer 110A directly contacts shutter 134, also at the surface of shutter 134 gasification mist.But if contact the gasification mist on shutter 134, owing to seized the gasification heat, the temperature of shutter 134 reduces.The temperature reduction amount of shutter 134 is corresponding with the amount of the liquid charging stock of spraying, also changes along with the mist quantitative changeization that contacts with shutter 134.Usually, the design temperature of the relative vaporizer 110 of the temperature of shutter 134 will hang down about 5~15 ℃.
Above-mentioned filter element 133 also can be configured in relative shutter 134 and be positioned near the position of sending side.For example, usually, the interval 130D of filter element 133 and shutter 134 is in the scope of 1~100mm, particularly, and preferably in the scope of 1~50mm, more preferably in the scope of 2~10mm.Typically, most preferably above-mentioned distance is about about 5mm.If above-mentioned distance is littler than above-mentioned scope, the transmission reduction of gas raw material, in addition, residual mist also narrows down to the actual adhering range of filter element 133.In this case, has the worry of on the part of filter element 133, concentrating the accumulation solid content.In addition, big if above-mentioned distance becomes, just improved the conductibility of gas raw material, the solid content of the part of filter element 133 adheres to and also obtains relaxing, but can cause the maximization of gasifier.
Preferably, as the A/F of the above-mentioned flow-through opening 134b of portion at the outer rim of shutter 134 and the interval between the sidewall 131 of its outer circumferential side configuration, guaranteeing on the conductive basis of gas raw material, is below the above 10mm of 0.5mm, more than the 1mm more preferably.But if strengthen above-mentioned A/F, the danger that mist directly arrives filter element 133 just increases, so most preferably be about about 2mm.
In addition, the gap (flow path width of inner space 130A) between the filter element 133 of the outer rim of preferred shutter 134 and portion space 130A side configuration within it is in the scope of 0.5mm~100mm, in addition, is more preferably in the scope of 0.5mm~10mm.In addition, most preferably this is about about 2mm at interval.If this diminishes at interval, the conductibility of gas raw material reduces.On the contrary, if become big at interval, the mist that enters from the 130B of flow-through opening portion directly arrives filter element 133 easily.
130 gas raw material stream comprises from vaporizer 110A to unloading part: by the first stream portion of the A/F defined of the above-mentioned open communication 134b of portion; The second stream portion that is communicated with this first stream portion by the interval defined of filter element 133 and shutter 134.In this case, preferred, constitute, the mist or the solid content that enter from the first stream portion can not enter the second stream portion of arrival by straight line.Under the situation of the fixing outer edge of filter element 133, the stream of above-mentioned gas raw material comprises the 3rd stream portion by the interval defined of shutter 134 and filter element 133, the 3rd stream portion set into, make to be communicated with the first stream portion and the second stream portion.In this case, preferred, constitute, by forming the 3rd stream portion, the mist or the solid content that enter from the first stream portion can not enter the second stream portion of arrival by straight line.

Turn back to Figure 21 again, in gasifier 100 (500), the raw material of gasification in vaporizer 110 (510), by unloading part 130 (150,150 ', 150 ", 160,160 ', 150X, 150Y, 150Z, 170,170 ', 180,190,230,330,430,530) deliver to raw material supplying circuit 140.
In raw material supplying circuit 140, set raw material supplying path 141 and the exhaust pathway 143,144 that is connected with gas extraction system (for example vacuum pump).In raw material supplying path 141, set and have above-mentioned filter element (133,153,153 ', 163,153X, 153Z, 173,183,193,232,334,433,532) gas raw material evaporating filter 142 again.These again evaporating filter 142 have with above-mentioned unloading part (130,150,150 ', 150 ", 160,160 ', 150X, 150Y, 150Z, 170,170 ', 180,190,230,330,430,530) same structure.That is, the part that above-mentioned gas raw material supplying portion can be used as any gasifier sets, and is relative therewith, although evaporating filter 142 has the formation identical with above-mentioned unloading part again, is different disposing this point individually with gasifier.Here, as the supply of gasified raw material structure, above-mentioned unloading part and again evaporating filter 142 no one only be set concern.
For at processed substrates such as handling part 300 mounting semiconductor wafers, it has the reative cell 301 that sets pedestal 304.In reative cell 301, pedestal 304 sets gas introduction part (spray head) 303 relatively.From spray head 303, import in the reative cell 301 by gasifier 100 (500) gas supplied raw materials (importing simultaneously) with suitable carrier gas.And the reacting gas that will supply with from the gas introduction tube 305 of other approach from spray head 303 oxidizing gas such as (for example) oxygen imports in the reative cell 301.In reative cell 301,, connect blast pipe 306 for to exhaust in the reative cell 301.
In above-mentioned reaction treating device, unloading part by gasifier (130,150,150 ', 150 ", 160,160 ', 150X, 150Y, 150Z, 170,170 ', 180,190,230,330,430,530) or evaporating filter 142 again, can significantly reduce the mist that imports in the reative cell 301 or the amount of particulate.For this reason, can improve the quality of the processing of in reative cell 301, carrying out (for example film forming processing).At above-mentioned unloading part or again in the evaporating filter, the filter element of portion's configuration within it can heat more equably, can improve gasification efficiency thus, prevents that mesh from stopping up.For this reason, can keep the conductibility of supply lines, reduce frequency of maintenance.
Figure 23 is the summary pie graph of the reaction treating device (semiconductor processing device) of expression other execution mode of the present invention.Constitute in the example at this, to gasifier 100 (500) base feeds, to raw material supplying path 141 supply gas raw materials, supply to handling part 300 from gasifier 100 (500) from raw material supplying portion 200, this point is same as described above.But difference is, imports purge line 145 from non-active gas such as Ar gas to raw material supplying path 141 that supply with, this point difference.Constitute in the example at this, evaporating filter 142 and exhaust pathway 143 are not set again.
Constitute in the example at this, shorten as far as possible, reduce gasifying gas amount residual in the raw material supplying path thus from gasifier 100 (500) distances (length in raw material supplying path 141) to reative cell 301.By like this, can suppress the generation of particulate in the raw material supplying system, so can improve the quality of the film of film forming in the reative cell 301.
Figure 24 represents that the gasifier of execution mode 2 and the interior pressure about vaporizer that existing gasifier (gasifier of filter element is set separately in existing mode) compares change the curve chart of (the raw material supplying time dependence of interior pressure) in time.
In existing gasifier, shown in line L2, like that, before reaching 100 hours, the raw material supplying time just surpassed upper limit pressure.For this reason, simultaneously heat the N that simultaneously flows 2Deng the purified treatment of non-active gas, press in temporarily reducing, but after surpass the upper limit (and, omitted purified treatment in the drawings during represent) in the short time once more.Consider that this is owing to adhere to solid content in a large number on filter element, the reason that conductibility reduces.
In contrast, in the gasifier of execution mode 2, shown in line L1,, also be far from reaching upper limit pressure, can understand, compare, can significantly suppress convective reduction with there is something special even the raw material supplying time surpasses 600 hours.And, in execution mode 2, convective reduction as described above takes place hardly, filter element has necessarily been brought into play function.In execution mode 2, experimental verification is compared with existing structure, and the particulate loading that flows in the reative cell is reduced to below half on the contrary.
Particularly, under the situation of existing structure, by the in-line filter that connects in the downstream, can significantly reduce the particulate loading that flows in the reative cell, but under the situation of execution mode 2, know that even unload the in-line filter (pot strainer) that connects in the downstream, the particulate loading that arrives reative cell does not change basically yet.Think that this this result has shown that the particulate loading that is taken place reduces to the degree that the variation that causes because of having or not of in-line filter does not have appearance basically in the gasifier of execution mode 2.
For this reason, in the measurement that interior pressure shown in Figure 24 changes, approximately reach 170 hours the moment (illustrated dotted line), unload the filter of the series connection that connects in the downstream, proceed to measure in the raw material supplying time.As a result, the interior pressure value of curve reduced later on a little at 170 hours.Like this, proved in execution mode 2, can suppress significantly to stop up the conductibility reduction that causes, reduced the particulate of side flow downstream simultaneously significantly by the mesh of filter element.
And supply structure, gasifier and the reaction treating device of gasified raw material of the present invention are not limited only to above-mentioned illustrative example, can also carry out various changes in the scope that does not break away from aim of the present invention, and this much less.For example, each characteristic point of sidewall shown in above-mentioned any one execution mode, inner space, heater block, filter element, shutter, heat transfer part (heat conduction post), flow-through opening portion, can be used for other execution mode respectively independently, other formation shown in each execution mode and combination do not limit yet.
