Chinese invention patent application CN1669117A discloses a kind of MOCVD conversion unit, reaction chamber is made up of the hood-shaped quartz material of ring clock, the reaction chamber upper end is a gas introduction port, have a gas discharge outlet on the sidewall, bottom position is provided with the substrate pallet of liftable, rotation, and cleaning substrate is placed on the pallet.Design has only utilized the one side of laminar flow gas like this, and does not use the another side of laminar flow gas, has reduced the utilization ratio of gas.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is in order to overcome the defective of prior art, a kind of semi-conductor chip MOCVD conversion unit that relates to is provided.Be specifically related to the laminar flow formula MOCVD reaction chamber in the MOCVD reactor, this reaction chamber device can fully utilize laminar flow gas is two-sided, has reduced the difficulty of vent gas treatment simultaneously.
Particularly, MOCVD equipment of the present invention is mainly combined by gas introduction port 1, reaction chamber 2, gas discharge outlet 3, three parts.MOCVD reactor of the present invention comprises two base-tray devices, and opposing parallel is arranged at the air-flow both sides of this reaction chamber.An identical substrate pallet is all respectively arranged being parallel to the streamlined relative two sides of reactant gases, heating component supports and drives the substrate pallet with up-down mechanism and can move up and down with respect to reaction chamber.When reaction, two substrate pallets all closely link to each other with reaction chamber, and substrate abuts against the both sides of laminar flow reactant gases.When reactant gases when the reaction chamber, the upper surface of reaction gas contacts with substrate in the upper substrate pallet and forms the growth material film, the lower surface of reaction gas contacts with substrate in the lower substrate pallet and forms the growth material film, and the two sides of reactant gases just all is utilized like this.When the exchange substrate, two substrate pallets can move to other position respectively, under the protection of vacuum or rare gas element, have the substrate of film to shift out with long; To be placed at the cleaning substrate that pretreatment chamber handled on the substrate pallet.
Beneficial effect of the present invention is:
MOCVD reactor of the present invention is not influencing under the situation that the original substrate pallet of MOCVD equipment, reaction control, air-flow distribute, and the utilization ratio of gas is doubled, and also production efficiency is doubled simultaneously.
For the ease of understanding, below will the present invention be described in detail by concrete drawings and Examples.It needs to be noted, specific examples and accompanying drawing only are in order to illustrate, obviously those of ordinary skill in the art can illustrate according to this paper, within the scope of the invention the present invention is made various corrections and change, and these corrections and change are also included in the scope of the present invention.
