For example, a thin film deposition process and a photolithography process (4) and a process are performed several times to form a circuit pattern on a substrate and an additional process such as a cleaning process, an adhesion process, a dicing process, and the like are performed. The /product process and the etching process are performed in a cavity type film processing apparatus. Recently, a PECVD (plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition) device in which a reactive gas is excited in a plasma using an RF (Radio Frequency) high voltage is widely used as one of film processing devices. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view showing a prior art thin film processing apparatus. Referring to Fig. 1, a film processing apparatus includes a chamber in which a reaction space 8 is contained. A substrate 2 is placed in a chamber 10, a reaction gas flows into the reaction space A and is activated, and a film treatment is performed. The upper electrode 34, the gas distribution plate 30, and the lower electrode 60 are located in the cavity 10. An RF voltage is applied to the upper electrode 34. The gas distribution plate 3 is below the upper electrode 34 and the reaction gas is injected into the reaction space a 136286.doc 200930832 via a plurality of injection holes 32. The gas distribution plate 30 and the upper electrode 34 are coupled at their edge portions by a coupling device 42. The lower electrode 60 faces the gas distribution plate 3〇 and is supplied with a bias voltage. Further, the lower electrode 60 serves as a chuck on which the substrate 2 is placed, and the lower electrode 60 moves up and down. The substrate 2 is fixed at the edge portion of the substrate 2 by a hatched frame 64. The shaded frame 64 prevents deposition of a film at the edge portion of the substrate 2. The heater 62 is mounted inside the lower electrode 60. The reaction gas supply line 70 is consumed by the chamber 10 and supplies the reaction gas into the chamber. The reaction gas supply line 70 passes through a central portion of the upper electrode 34. The baffle 36 is positioned below the upper electrode 34 to diffuse the reaction gas supplied from the reaction gas supply line 70. The discharge port 52 is in the chamber 10 and discharges the reaction gas in the reaction space A using an external discharge system. This thin film processing apparatus has problems in that the size of semiconductor devices and liquid crystal display devices increases. As the size of semiconductor devices and liquid crystal display devices increases, the film processing apparatus becomes large. Therefore, the gas distribution plate 30 becomes large and thus excessive. Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the gas distribution plate 30 sinks under weight in the prior art film processing apparatus. Referring to Figure 2, the central portion of the gas distribution plate 30 sinks due to the weight of the gas distribution plate 30. Therefore, the distance Dcen between the central portion of the gas distribution plate 30 and the substrate 2 is smaller than the distance Dedg between the edge portion of the gas distribution plate 3 and the substrate 2. Therefore, the density of the reaction gas varies depending on the position, and the process consistency of the film processing apparatus is degraded. Therefore, the film is deposited and etched unevenly on the substrate 136286.doc 200930832 2, and the uniformity of the film is degraded.

The gas distribution plate 130 includes a plurality of injection holes 132 through which the reaction gas is injected into the reaction space A. "The reaction space persons can be defined by the gas distribution plates 130 and the lower electrodes 160 facing each other. A discharge port 152 is installed at the bottom of the chamber 110 and discharges the reaction gas using, for example, a discharge system of a motor pump. The upper electrode 134 is coupled to the gas distribution plate 130 at the edge portions of the upper electrode 134 and the gas distribution plate 130 by the first coupling means 142.

Therefore, the head i2〇b is not inserted into the first sub-hole 12〇&amp; and is disposed on the bottle neck portion, and the shaft 120a passes through the first sub-hole 135a The head 12〇b may be located in the second sub-hole 13讣 and not exposed to φ on the top surface of the upper electrode U4. The shaft 120a may have a thread and may form a splicing axis around the receiving hole 133.

Further, the cap portion 153 may cover the through hole 136286.doc 200930832 135 and be coupled to the upper electrode 134 by the third coupling device ι55. The gland plate 153 may be of a plate type and made of a metal material. Since the sealing portion ι5 〇 and the cap portion 153 securely seal the through hole 135, the reaction gas can be prevented from leaking through the through hole 135. The second coupling device 120 couples the gas distribution plate 130 and the upper electrode 134 around its central portion as described above. Therefore, although the size of the gas distribution plate 13 is increased, the gas distribution plate 丨3 〇 can be prevented from sinking.

Partial perspective. The apparatus of the second embodiment is similar to the apparatus of the first embodiment. Therefore, the explanation of the components similar to those of the first embodiment can be omitted. The film processing process can be carried out under high temperature conditions, such as Celsius (.), from about 35 to 450 degrees. Therefore, the components of the thin film processing device can be affected by the party under high temperature conditions. A component made of a metal material having a high melting point may be hardly affected while other components may be affected. For example, the sealing portion using the 〇-shaped ring can be damaged at a high temperature, and thus the life of the sealing portion is shortened. Because of this, the seal portion will be replaced frequently with a (four) seal. Due to this replacement, the operating speed of the device is reduced, and thus the manufacturing efficiency is reduced. The film processing apparatus according to the second embodiment may further include a cooling portion to cool the sealing portion. The cooling portion 280 may be located on the top surface of the upper electrode 134 and surround the sealing portion (4) and the gland portion 153. The cooling portion can be made of a metal material having a high thermal conductivity of I36286.doc -14- 200930832 (for example, aluminum (A1)). The cooling portion 28A includes a cooling path 283' along which the cooling water 285 flows and circulates. Cooling portion 280 can have bottom and top blocks 28〇3 and 28〇1), each of which has a semi-circular recess. Cooling path 283 may be defined by the attached bottom and the opposing grooves of top blocks 280a and 280b. Alternatively, the cooling portion 28A may have a bottom block with a semi-circular recess and a cover block that is flat and covers the bottom block. The cooling portion 280 can be coupled to the upper electrode 134 by a fourth coupling device. The fourth coupling device can be a bolt and the fourth coupling device can pass through the cooling ® portion 280 and be inserted into the aperture of the upper electrode 134. The film processing apparatus may include a cooling water supply portion 293. Further, the film processing apparatus may include a cooling water supply line that transfers the cooling water 285 from the cooling water supply portion 293 to the cooling path 285, and a cooling water discharge line that discharges the cooling water 285 from the cooling path 283. The control portion 291 can control the supply and discharge of the cooling water 285. The control portion 291 can be electrically connected to at least one of the cooling portion 280 and the cooling water supply portion 293. 9 At least one cooling portion 280 can be disposed around a central portion of the upper electrode 134. For example, 'in the case of configuring one of the cooling portions 280 of the unit', the cooling water supply and discharge lines can be simplified. Alternatively, in the case of configuring a plurality of cooling portions 280, when repairs are required, such as when the sealing portion 136 or the gland portion 134 needs to be repaired, the associated cooling portion 28A can be easily disengaged from the upper electrode 134 while other cooling portions are required. 280 and the reactive gas supply line 170 are not detached. The at least one cooling portion 280 may have an annular shape surrounding the reaction gas supply line 170. The plurality of cooling portions 280 are symmetrical with respect to the reaction 136286.doc • 15 - 200930832 gas supply line 170. For example, when the two cooling portions 280 are installed, the two cooling portions 28 are symmetrical around the reaction gas supply line port and relative to the reaction gas supply line 17A. The cooling water 285 is output from the cooling water supply portion 293 to the outside of the chamber 11 and is followed by the cooling water supply line, the cooling path 283, and the cooling water discharge line, and then discharged to the outside. Alternatively, the cooling water 285 can be recycled. For example, the cooling water 285 discharged through the cooling water discharge line is re-cooled through a separate cold system, or the temperature of the cooling water 285 is naturally lowered to a desired degree, such as a normal temperature in the dwell portion. Subsequently, the cooling water 285 is again supplied to the cooling water supply portion 293, and then circulated again through the cooling water supply line, the cooling path 283, and the cooling water discharge line. The control portion 291 can control the cooling water supply portion 293 to adjust, for example, the amount of cold water and the time for supplying the cooling water. This adjustment effectively cools the sealing portion 150 so that the sealing portion 15 can be prevented from being thermally damaged. In more detail, the control portion 291 can prevent the upper electrode 丨 34 from being too cold. The supercooling of φ affects the reaction gas that passes through the central portion of the upper electrode crucible 34 and travels toward the baffle 172. In other words, the reaction gas can be partially cooled and disguised into a powder. Therefore, the powdery reaction gas cannot be injected through the injection hole 132, and the injection port 32 is further blocked. Therefore, by using the control portion 29 i , overcooling can be prevented. As described above, the film processing apparatus according to the second embodiment uses a cooling portion capable of cooling and sealing the portion. Therefore, the life of the sealing portion and the replacement time are increased, and thus the operation rate and the manufacturing efficiency can be improved. In addition, since the sealing portion is prevented from being suddenly damaged, the reaction gas can be prevented from leaking and being stabilized. 36286.doc •16· 200930832 The vacuum condition in the chamber is maintained. The process of forming a thin film on the substrate 102 in the thin film processing apparatus according to the second embodiment can be performed as follows. The substrate 102 is placed on the lower electrode 160 and then the lower electrode 160 is moved upward such that the substrate 1〇2 is at a sufficient distance from the gas distribution plate 130. Then, the rf voltage and the bias voltage are respectively supplied to the upper electrode 134 and the lower electrode 16', and the reaction gas is injected into the reaction space a via the reaction gas supply line 170 and the injection hole 132, and the reaction gas is excited in the plasma. . The free radicals in the plasma react chemically and the film is deposited on the substrate 102. When the film is deposited on the substrate 1 〇 2, the heater 162 is heated to effectively form a film on the substrate 102. After the film is completed, the lower electrode 160 moves downward and the discharge port 152 discharges the reaction gas from the chamber n〇. The substrate 1〇2 having the film is then replaced with a new substrate. In the process of depositing a thin film on the substrate 1〇2, the temperature in the reaction space A may be from about 10,000 degrees Celsius to about 10,000 degrees. Although the film is deposited under high temperature conditions, the cooling portion 28 〇 cools the sealing portion 136 ′ The heat of the sealing portion 136 is damaged. Figure 8 is a cross-sectional view showing a cooling portion of a film processing apparatus according to a third embodiment of the present invention. The apparatus of the third embodiment is similar to the apparatus of the first and second examples. Therefore, the explanation of the components similar to those of the second embodiment can be omitted. Referring to Fig. 8, the cooling portion of the second embodiment can be configured at the top surface of the upper electrode (9).

A cooling water path 3 83 in the form of a monomer may be formed in the upper electrode 134 and surround all of the sealing portion 150 and all of the gland portions 153. Alternatively, a plurality of cooling paths 383 (e.g., two cooling paths 383) similar to those of FIG. 7 may be formed in the upper electrode 134, and the cooling path 383 may surround the associated sealing portion 150 and the gland portion 153. In a manner similar to the second embodiment, the cooling water 385 is supplied from the cooling water supply portion and then flows along the cooling water supply line, the cooling path 383, and the cooling water discharge line. Fig. 9 is a cross-sectional view showing a thin film processing apparatus according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 10 is a view showing an enlarged apparatus of a thin film processing apparatus according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. The film processing apparatus of the fourth embodiment is similar to the apparatus of the second embodiment. Therefore, the explanation of the components similar to those of the first to third embodiments can be omitted. The second coupling device 42A of the fourth embodiment may have a structure different from that of the first embodiment. Referring to Figures 9 and 10, the second coupling device 420 can include removable components such as brackets 424, shafts, and nuts. The shaft 422 can have a cylindrical rod shape. The shaft may comprise a top and a bottom end, and the boring tool has a threaded 〇 bottom end portion may have a diameter D which is a diameter of a central portion between the top and bottom end portions. Further, the top end portion may have a diameter smaller than the diameter D of the central portion of the shaft 422. The helmet is completely &lt; ^ 3, and the top end portion may have the same direct search D1 as the bottom end 4 points. The top end portion of the shaft 422 can be inserted into the nut 426. The nut 426 can be 136286.doc 200930832 has a helical groove 416a at the inner surface of the nut 42 6 and the thread of the top end portion can fit into the helical groove 426a. The outer diameter of the nut 426 can be greater than the diameter D of the shaft 422. The bottom end portion of the shaft 422 can be inserted into the bracket 424. The bracket 424 can include a receiving portion 424a at the top and a raised portion 424b at the bottom. The receiving portion 424a can have a threaded bore 428 that is internal to the receiving portion 424a. The bottom end portion can be fitted into the screw hole 428. The protruding portion 4241) can be inserted into the receiving hole of the gas distribution plate 130, and the diameter of the protruding portion 424b can be smaller than the outer diameter of the receiving portion 424a. The bottom end portion may have a projection 423 above the spiral wire at the bottom end portion. At least one protrusion 423 can be radially disposed about the shaft 422. 11A and 11B are cross-sectional views showing the coupling of a gas distribution plate and an upper electrode by a second coupling means in a film processing apparatus according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. Referring to Fig. 11A, the top surface of the gas distribution plate 130 has a receiving hole 433' and the upper electrode 134 has a through hole 435 corresponding to the receiving hole 433. A spiral groove may be formed around the receiving hole 422. The bracket 424 is inserted into the receiving hole 433. For example, the thread of the protruding portion of the bracket 424 (424b of Fig. 10) can be fitted into the spiral groove of the receiving hole 433. Therefore, the bracket 424 is fixed to the gas distribution plate 130. After the bracket 424 is coupled to the gas distribution plate 13A, the shaft 422 passes through the through hole 135 and is inserted into the receiving portion of the bracket 424 (the screw hole (Fig. 1 428) of Fig. 1 且) and the shaft 422 Coupled with the bracket 424. When the shaft 422 is driven into the bracket 424, the protrusion 423 can act as an indicator 136286.doc -19. 200930832 to inform the worker whether the shaft 422 is fully inserted into the bracket 424. For example, In the absence of the protrusion 423, the worker cannot discern how deep the shaft 422 is inserted into the bracket 424, and the shaft 422 may be inserted into the bracket 424 at a greater or lesser depth than desired. This results in the coupled gas distribution plate 130 and The distance between the upper electrodes 134 varies depending on the skill of the worker, and thus it is difficult for the worker to achieve the desired distance between the coupled gas distribution plate 130 and the upper electrode 134. However, in the presence of the protrusions 423, when the worker sets the shaft When the 422 is fastened into the bracket 424, the protrusion 423 informs the worker shaft 422 to fully insert into the bracket 424 because the protrusion 423 is blocked by the top surface of the bracket 424 and cannot travel further. Therefore, the worker inserts the shaft 422 into the bracket Rack 424 until The 423 is blocked by the bracket 424, and therefore, the shaft 422 is easily inserted into the bracket 424 at the correct depth. Therefore, the required distance between the coupled gas distribution plate 130 and the upper electrode 134 can be easily achieved. Further, the bottom end portion of the shaft 422 may have a smaller diameter (D' of FIG. 10) than the diameter of the central portion of the shaft 422 (D of FIG. 10). Since the bottom end portion of the shaft 422 is coupled to the bracket 424, The size of the bracket 424 is reduced. Since the bracket 424 is located at the buffer space where the reaction gas diffuses, the bracket 424 may interfere with the flow of the reaction gas in the buffer space. Reducing the size of the bracket 424 allows the flow of the reaction gas Preferably, the bottom end portion of the shaft 422 may have a smaller diameter than the diameter of the central portion of the shaft 422. The bottom end portion of the shaft 422 may have an allowable diameter to allow for reaction in the buffer space. The flow of gas is not disturbed by the bracket 424. Referring to Figure 11B, after the shaft 422 is coupled to the bracket 424, the nut 426 is coupled to the shaft 422. For example, the nut 426 is in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction. 136286.doc -20- 200930832 is rotated upward to be screwed with the top end portion of the shaft 422. The outer diameter of the nut 426 can be larger than the diameter of the through hole 435. Therefore, the nut 426 is suspended from the top surface of the upper electrode 134 。 nut 426 The distance between the gas distribution plate 130 and the upper electrode 134 can be adjusted according to the fastening depth. For example, when the nut 426 is driven deeper from the top of the shaft 422, the distance between the nut 426 and the bracket 424 is reduced. Small, and thus the distance between the gas distribution plate 13A and the upper electrode is reduced. The distance between the nut 426 and the bracket 424 increases as the nut 426 is driven shallower from the top of the shaft 422, and thus the distance between the gas distribution plate 13A and the upper electrode 134 increases. Subsequently, the gland portion 453 can cover the nut 126 to seal the second coupling device 420. The gland portion 453 prevents puncture gas from leaking through the through hole 435 and maintains vacuum conditions. The gland portion 453 can be a nut. Alternatively, the gland portion and the sealing portion of the first to third embodiments may be used to cover the nut 126, and the cooling portion may be used to cool the sealing portion. The second coupling device 420 can be made of aluminum (A) and the second coupling device "Ο can be anodized. As described above, the second coupling device securely couples the gas distribution plate with the upper electrode around the central portion. Because &amp;, the center of the gas distribution plate can be prevented from sinking under weight. In addition, the second coupling device includes a detachable component. Therefore, the wear of the gas distribution plate and the upper electrode coupled by the second coupling device can be minimized. In addition, since the shaft is coupled to the bracket in a state in which the bracket has been inserted into the gas distribution plate, the shaft does not directly contact the gas distribution plate. Therefore, the particles and wear of the receiving hole can be prevented (which may be in the shaft and 136286.doc 200930832 occurs when the gas distribution plate is directly coupled.) Since the assembly of the first known shank device is detachable, the damaged component can be easily replaced. Fig. 12 is a view showing the film according to the fifth embodiment of the present invention. A cross-sectional view of the garment is processed. The film processing apparatus of the fifth embodiment is similar to the film processing apparatus of the first to fourth embodiments. Therefore, the pair and the first can be omitted. The components of the fourth embodiment are similarly illustrated. For the sake of simplicity of explanation, the schematic structure of the film processing apparatus of the fifth embodiment is shown and some components of the film processing apparatus of the fifth embodiment are omitted. 12, the gas distribution plate 130 is coupled to the upper electrode 134 by a second coupling device 52. The second coupling device 52A may have the same structure as the second coupling device of the first to fourth embodiments. The cooling portion to one of the fourth embodiments can be used in the film processing apparatus of the fifth embodiment. The central portion of the gas distribution plate 130 can be pulled up' and the gas distribution plate 130 can have a bow shape. The size of the second electrode 160 can also sink at the edge portion of the lower electrode 160. Therefore, the distance between the lower electrode 160 and the gas distribution plate 13〇 may not be uniform, and thus the film cannot be achieved. Uniformity. To make this distance uniform, the gas distribution plate 13 is pulled up using the second consuming device 520. Preferably, the bottom surface 51 of the upper electrode 134 has a gas reflecting The bow-shaped bow or dome shape of the plate 130. The height of the buffer space (i.e., the distance between the gas distribution plate 130 and the upper electrode 134) may be inconsistent in the case where the upper electrode 134 is generally flat. Further, in the film During the processing process, the central portion of the upper electrode 134 may hang down due to high temperature conditions and vacuum pressure, and therefore, the height of the buffer space may be inconsistent. 136286.doc -22- 200930832 This high I change in buffer space results in buffer space The density of the medium ruthenium gas is not uniform. To distance the upper electrode 134 from the gas distribution plate 13A, the upper electrode 134 has a bow-shaped bottom surface 510. The gas distribution plate 130 may have the same overall thickness. The top surface of the upper electrode 134 may be flat, and the thickness of the upper electrode 134 may increase in the direction from the central portion to the bottom portion of the upper electrode 134. Alternatively, the top surface of the upper electrode can have other shapes. The bow shape of the upper electrode 134 can be designed in consideration of the sinking of the central portion of the upper electrode 134 and the sinking of the edge portion of the lower electrode 16〇. In other words, although the gas distribution plate 130 is pulled up to maintain the distance between the gas distribution plate 13〇 and the bottom surface 51〇 of the upper electrode 134, the bottom surface 51 of the upper electrode 134 is considered in consideration of the lower electrode 160 sinking. The crucible is designed to maintain a uniform distance between the gas distribution plate 130 and the lower electrode 16A. However, since the electric field induced by the RF voltage applied to the upper electrode 134 is generally strong at the central portion of the lower electrode 160, it is considered that the distance between the present gas-like gas distribution plate 130 and the lower electrode 160 may not be uniform. In the case where the gas distribution plate 130 is pulled up, when the lower electrode 16 is flat, the distance between the bottom surface of the gas distribution plate 130 and the lower electrode 160 is in the direction from the edge portion to the central portion of the lower electrode 160. Increased. For example, the distance between the bottom surface of the gas distribution plate 13() and the lower electrode 160 can be linearly increased. Alternatively, the gas distribution plate 130 may not have an overall uniform thickness. For example, the bottom surface of the gas distribution plate 130 may have a bow or dome shape, and the thickness of the gas distribution plate 130 may be 136286.doc -23- 200930832. The direction from the center portion to the edge portion of the i3 turns. When the gas distribution plate 13 has a bow-shaped bottom surface, the messy distribution plate 13 can be pulled up. However, the second coupling device 520 holds the gas distribution plate 13 from sinking and makes the distance between the gas distribution plate 130 and the upper electrode 134 uniform. Preferably, the arcuate bottom surface of the gas distribution plate 130 has the same curvature as the arcuate bottom surface 510 of the upper electrode 134. Therefore, the distance between the bottom surface of the gas distribution plate 13 and the bottom surface 510 of the upper electrode 134 can be integrated as a whole. As described above, the bottom surface of the upper electrode has a shape corresponding to the shape of the gas distribution plate' and thus the distance between the gas distribution plate and the upper electrode is uniform. Therefore, the uniformity of the film on the substrate can be achieved. Figure 13 is a cross-sectional view showing a film processing apparatus according to a sixth embodiment of the present invention. The film processing apparatus of the sixth embodiment is similar to the film processing apparatuses of the first to fifth embodiments. Therefore, the explanation of the components similar to those of the first to fifth embodiment will be omitted. For the sake of simplicity of the explanation, Fig. 3 shows a schematic configuration of the film processing apparatus of the sixth embodiment and omits some components of the film processing apparatus of the sixth embodiment. Referring to Fig. 13, the gas distribution plate 130 may have a convex step 62 in the direction of the side of the gas distribution plate 13 from the edge portion to the central portion. Further, the bottom surface of the upper electrode 134 may have a gas distribution plate 13 according to the gas distribution plate 13 The raised step of the raised step 610. Therefore, the distance between the gas distribution plate 13A and the upper electrode 134 can be made uniform. The step 620 of the gas distribution plate 1 3 can be symmetrical with respect to the reaction gas supply line 170 and the step 610 of the bottom surface 136286.doc -24 - 200930832 of the gas distribution plate 13 can be symmetric with respect to the reaction gas supply line 17 . Since the gas distribution plate 130 has a step and the upper electrode 134 has a stepped bottom surface corresponding to the step 620 of the gas distribution plate 130, the bottom surface of the gas distribution plate 130 and the upper electrode! The distance between the bottom surfaces of 34 is uniform. When the gas distribution plate 130 has an overall uniform thickness, the distance between the top surface of the gas distribution plate 130 and the bottom surface of the upper electrode 134 may be uniform. When the top surface of the lower electrode 160 is flat, the distance between the bottom surface of the gas distribution plate 130 and the lower electrode 160 increases in the direction from the edge portion to the central portion of the lower electrode 160 in accordance with the stepped shape of the gas distribution electrode 13'. For example, the distance between the bottom surface of the gas distribution plate 13 and the lower electrode 160 may increase non-linearly. The upper electrode 134 has regions corresponding to the steps 61A, respectively. Therefore, the distance between the bottom surface of the upper electrode 134 and the lower electrode ι6 一致 is at least uniform in the same region. Further, the distance between the bottom surface of the upper electrode 134 and the bottom surface of the gas separation plate 130 is uniform in the same region. The gas distribution plate 130 has regions corresponding to the steps 620, respectively. Therefore, when the top surface of the lower electrode 160 is flat, the distance between the gas distribution plate 丨3〇 and the lower electrode 160 coincides at least in the same region. As described above, the bottom surface of the upper electrode has a shape corresponding to the shape of the gas distribution plate, and thus the distance between the gas distribution plate and the upper electrode is uniform. Therefore, the uniformity of the film on the substrate can be achieved. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and changes can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, it is intended that the present invention covers the modifications and variations within the scope of the appended claims and the equivalents thereof.
