Abstract

993,261. Semi-conductor treatment. COMPAGNIE FRANCAISE THOMSON-HOUSTON. March 29, 1962, [March 29, 1961,] No. 12110/62. Drawings to Specification. Heading H1K. In manufacturing semi-conductor devices which are treated in a sealed quartz jacket taken to a high temperature, the outer surface of the jacket is covered, either wholly or in its hottest zones, by a layer of liquid at the operational temperature produced by the action of a solvent on the quartz of the jacket. Such a solvent may be, for example, a mixture of sodium silicate and one or more oxides of bivalent metals such as lead, magnesium, and barium; boric acid optionally containing borosilicate glass; or sodium oxide. The liquid/solid system of the jacket surface acts as a barrier to vaporized impurities (such as iron, copper, and nickel) produced in the furnace and to which untreated quartz is permeable at high temperatures. An automatic method of applying the solvent consists of surrounding the jacket with a muffle made from a refractory material such as alumina containing a small proportion of solvent which is volatile at the temperature of the furnace, for example sodium oxide. In the embodiment described with reference to Fig. 1 (not shown) silicon wafers are to be in diffused with gallium. The process takes place in a silica glass (clear quartz) jacket completely coated with a sodium silicate (lead oxide mixture initially applied as a suspension of the oxide in an aqueous solution of the silicate. The jacket is placed within an opaque quartz muffle lying along the axis of a furnace, the two regions of which may be kept at different temperatures so the temperature of the gallium source may be different from that of the silicone wafers. A similar liquid-coated quartz tube may be used for the purification of gallium arsenide.
