ある。Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in more detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows an example of the overall structure of a reactor equipped with the isothermal rapid cooling means exemplified in this embodiment, FIG. 2 (a) shows an example of the structure of a cooling gas ejection pipe, and FIG. 2] is a schematic diagram showing a state in which the cooling gas ejection pipe of FIG. 2 (a) is set in a heating furnace. In the figure, a wafer 8 for forming a thermal oxide film is loaded inside the vertical reaction tube 1, and the reaction tube 1 is cooled after being heated in a predetermined atmosphere and temperature for a predetermined time. .
The atmosphere in the heating furnace at the outer peripheral portion of the reaction tube 1 is sucked and exhausted by the cooling blower 4. At this time, the cold outside air 11
It enters from the outside air introduction port 10, passes through the outer peripheral portion of the reaction tube 1, passes through the damper 5 through the vent hole 9 provided in the upper part of the heating furnace, is cooled by the radiator (heat exchanger) 3, and is a blower for cooling. It is discharged to the outside of the furnace by No. 4. On the other hand, cooling air is ejected from the cooling gas ejection port 16 of the cooling gas ejection pipe 14, which is provided in close contact with the outer peripheral portion of the reaction tube 1, and rises while cooling the outer peripheral surface of the reaction tube 1 to be heated. The gas is exhausted to the outside of the system through the ventilation hole 9 in the upper part of the furnace. By cooling the outer peripheral surface of the upper portion of the reaction tube 1 in this way, the temperature difference between the upper and lower wafers 8 loaded inside the reaction tube 1 becomes smaller, and as shown in FIG. The temperature difference in the isothermal cooling process of the lower wafer can be controlled to ± 5 ° C. or less. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, for example, in isothermal rapid cooling from 1000 ° C., the conventional cooling rate is about 2 ° C./min, and about 12 ° C. is needed to cool to 700 ° C.
Although it took 0 minutes, in the example of the present invention, the isothermal cooling rate was improved to about 5 ° C./minute, and the cooling time up to 700 ° C. was remarkably shortened to about 60 minutes. Then, the wafer 8 is loaded into the reaction tube 1, heated to a predetermined temperature, isothermally cooled, and one cycle required until the wafer 8 is taken out is about 200 minutes (cooling rate) in the conventional cooling method. However, according to the method of the present embodiment, it was possible to reduce the temperature to about 140 minutes (temperature decrease rate of 5 ° C./minute). Further, as a result of examining the temperature distribution difference on the wafer surface, in the conventional cooling method, as shown in FIG. 6B, the wafer temperature distribution difference is biased toward the cooling air exhaust direction, and the wafer temperature is about 20 ° C. In contrast to the temperature distribution difference, in the present embodiment, the temperature distribution difference is not biased with respect to the cooling gas discharge direction, the temperature is about 10 ° C. at the center of the wafer, and the wafer can be isothermally cooled substantially uniformly. did it. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, when the cooling gas jetting pipes are provided in two stages on the outer circumference of the reaction pipe 1, the upper wafer 8 and the lower wafer 8 are provided.
It was possible to improve the temperature difference between the temperature and the temperature from ± 5 ° C in the case of one stage to ± 2.5 ° C. In the above embodiments, the case where air is used as the cooling gas 13 has been described, but it goes without saying that an inert gas such as argon, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, etc. can be used. Further, although the cooling gas ejection pipe 14 has been described for one or two stages, it is also possible to provide three or more stages if necessary.
