Background
The formation of thin films on wafers by different gas sources is an important step in semiconductor processes, including Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), physical Vapor Deposition (PVD), and the like. When the vapor deposition equipment performs deposition reaction, reaction gas enters the reaction cavity through the gas inlet device, and then the residual gas after reaction is pumped out of the reaction cavity through the gas pumping ring component. The air extraction uniformity of the air extraction ring assembly is one of key factors influencing the uniformity of the thickness of the reactive film, and the air extraction ring assembly capable of uniformly extracting air is favorable for forming a stable flow field on the periphery of a wafer borne by the tray assembly, so that the uniformity of film deposition is improved, and the quality of the deposited film is ensured.
The prior art pumping ring assembly is shown in fig. 1, and comprises a hollow pumping ring 01, 4 or more exhaust pipes 02 connected to the bottom of the pumping ring 01 and a plurality of pumping ring supports 03. The technical problems of the air extraction ring assembly are as follows: 1. the exhaust pipe 02 is connected to the bottom surface of the exhaust ring 01, the pipe diameter of the exhaust pipe cannot exceed the difference between the inner diameter and the outer diameter of the bottom surface of the exhaust ring 01, and the exhaust pipe is limited by the layout of devices in the reaction cavity, and the exhaust ring 01 cannot be designed with the bottom surface with wider radial width, so that the pipe diameter and the exhaust rate of the exhaust pipe 02 are limited; 2. because of the limitation of the technical problem 1, more than 4 exhaust pipes 02 are required to be arranged for the exhaust ring assembly in the prior art to meet the requirement of the exhaust rate, and the bottom ends of the exhaust pipes 02 are required to be welded with an exhaust pipeline outside the cavity, so that the bottom ends of the exhaust pipes 02 meet the flatness of at least four surfaces, and the processing difficulty is increased; 3. in the case of having to increase the pumping rate, the diameter and radial width of the pumping ring 01 have to be increased to increase the pipe diameter of the exhaust pipe 02, but this has a series of effects on the layout of the devices in the cavity, for example, it may cause the diameter of the compression ring disposed at the top of the pumping ring 01 to be increased, thereby occupying a larger space in the cavity, and interfering with the design of the louver of the transfer port; 4. the material of gas pumping ring support 03 is ceramic, and the bottom wall of gas pumping ring 01 bottom and reaction chamber is connected respectively at its both ends, and the height is higher, so can produce great difference in temperature at equipment during operation both ends, and then influences the life of ceramic.

Wherein,
The upper air extraction ring 51 is arranged around the tray assembly 3 in the reaction chamber 1, and the ring body of the upper air extraction ring is hollow to form an upper air extraction chamber communicated with the inner cavity of the reaction chamber 1.
The lower air extraction ring is arranged below the upper air extraction ring 51 in the reaction cavity 1, and comprises 2 or 3 arc-shaped lower air extraction units 52 distributed along the circumferential direction of the tray assembly 3, each lower air extraction unit 52 is hollow to form a lower air extraction cavity, and each lower air extraction cavity is separately arranged, i.e. adjacent lower air extraction cavities are not directly and transversely communicated, but are respectively communicated with the upper air extraction cavities upwards, so that the manufacturing cost and the manufacturing difficulty of the lower air extraction ring are saved.
