本發明之目的在於對用於將製程氣體供給至進氣機構之供氣裝置或方法進行技術改良。 The purpose of the present invention is to technically improve the gas supply device or method for supplying process gas to the intake mechanism.
該目的透過申請專利範圍所給出的本發明而達成。 This objective is achieved by the invention given in the scope of patent application.
作為申請專利範圍主題之各項特徵的優點如下:本發明之裝置被構造成使得該等單一氣流在該等氣體源與該進氣機構間具有相同之有效徑長。該等單一氣流若具有相同之有效徑長,則該等不同氣體在該供氣裝置中具有相同之停留時間。在進入通道具有不同直徑或混合室區段採用不同構造之情況下,可透過不同壓力比來保持該相同之停留時間。但亦可透過不同之管線長度來補償不同直徑。對稱方案為較佳之選,其中進入通道及相對應之混合室區段採用相同構造。故此,「有效徑長」具體係指單一氣流以相同時間穿過第一混合室時所沿之流動路徑。可透過不同壓力比來補償各 流道間可能存在之幾何差別。在進入通道採用使得所有進入通道皆具有相同截面且在相同之幾何環境中通入混合室的對稱方案情況下,有效徑長乃是每個單一氣流由相關進入通道通往混合室之出口到排氣通道起點之流動路徑的幾何距離。該等單一氣流較佳分別為一層流,故該等徑長基本取決於流線。單一氣流在第一混合室中基本透過單一氣流之橫向擴散及多重偏轉而實現混合。設於第一混合室中之第一氣體致偏元件可被佈置成使得其大體具有增長流徑之特性。第一氣體致偏元件相對於進氣通道之星型排佈較佳對稱設於第一混合室內部,從而使得各單一氣流至少沿等效之流動路徑流動。第一氣體致偏元件可被佈置成使得單一氣流呈螺旋線形穿過環柱形第一混合室。在此過程中,單一氣流具有橫向於該進入平面之延伸平面的運動分量。在此過程中,單一氣流具有橫向於該進入平面之延伸平面的運動分量。但單一氣流在形成該延伸平面之方向上亦具有運動分量。在此等方向上較佳形成圓周運動或渦旋運動。其中,單一氣流沿螺旋線穿過第一混合室,例如沿混合室之虛軸由下向上。在第一混合室內側可設有第二混合室。兩混合室可由同心佈置之管件構成。在此情況下,第一混合室形成外圍混合室,第二混合室形成中央混合室。單一氣流在第一混合室內部匯合成預混第一氣流,該第一氣流越過溢流障壁。該溢流障壁可為一同時形成第一混合室之內壁及第二混合室之外壁之管件的端緣。在第二混合室中設有其他的第二氣體致偏元件,其能使越過溢流障壁而進入第二混合室之氣流發生單一偏轉或多重偏轉。第二氣體致偏元件以能引發渦旋之方式進行構建與佈置。第一氣體致偏元件較佳採用能使氣體層流發生單一偏轉或多重偏轉之構造與佈置方式,第二氣體致偏元 件則採用能產生渦旋之佈置方式。故此,第二氣體致偏元件係產生由全部單一氣流組成之第二氣體渦流。穿過第二混合室之氣流經排氣通道離開第二混合室,其中氣體排出方向較佳橫向於氣體饋送方向。因此,該排氣通道之延伸方向較佳橫向於該進氣平面之延伸平面。該二混合室之壁部可呈圓柱形且可由同心管件形成。該等管件之虛軸橫向於該進氣平面延伸。氣體在兩管件中以相反方向流動。該等氣體源可為蒸發源。此等蒸發源包含固態或液態起始材料,藉由施加蒸發熱將其變成氣態。藉由可定量載氣將此已蒸發起始材料透過進入通道送往第一混合室。單一氣流較佳以相同之平均流速由饋送通道進入第一混合室。可用質量流量控制器調節單一氣流之流速。但該等氣體源亦可為氣膠蒸發器。其亦藉由施加蒸發熱而將液態或固態起始材料變成氣態。蒸汽之質量流量一方面可透過蒸發面之溫度來加以控制,另一方面亦可透過載氣流量來加以控制。根據本發明,各氣體在氣體混合裝置內部(即在氣體源與CVD反應器之進氣機構間之區域)的停留時間大體為同等長度。停留時間之差至多為10毫秒。該等氣體在氣體混合裝置內部之停留時間較佳不超過100毫秒。在替代性裝置中,第一混合室亦可具有用以產生渦流之流動障礙物。第二混合室同樣可具有流動障礙物。但其亦可具有用於形成層流之導流元件。 The advantages of the features that are the subject of the patent application are as follows: The device of the present invention is constructed such that the single gas flows have the same effective diameter length between the gas sources and the air intake mechanism. If the single gas flows have the same effective diameter length, the different gases have the same residence time in the gas supply device. In the case where the inlet channels have different diameters or the mixing chamber sections adopt different configurations, the same residence time can be maintained through different pressure ratios. But different diameters can also be compensated by different pipeline lengths. A symmetrical scheme is a better choice, in which the inlet channel and the corresponding mixing chamber section adopt the same structure. Therefore, the "effective diameter length" specifically refers to the flow path along which a single airflow passes through the first mixing chamber at the same time. Different pressure ratios can be used to compensate each There may be geometric differences between the flow channels. In the case where the inlet channel adopts a symmetrical scheme such that all inlet channels have the same cross-section and lead into the mixing chamber in the same geometric environment, the effective diameter length is that each single airflow flows from the relevant inlet channel to the outlet of the mixing chamber to the exhaust The geometric distance of the flow path from the beginning of the gas channel. The single air flows are preferably one-layer flows, so the diameters are basically determined by the flow lines. The single air flow in the first mixing chamber basically achieves mixing through the lateral diffusion and multiple deflections of the single air flow. The first gas deflecting element provided in the first mixing chamber may be arranged so that it generally has the characteristic of increasing the flow path. The first gas deflecting element is preferably arranged symmetrically inside the first mixing chamber with respect to the star arrangement of the air inlet channel, so that each single gas flow flows at least along an equivalent flow path. The first gas deflecting element may be arranged such that a single gas flow spirally passes through the annular cylindrical first mixing chamber. In this process, a single airflow has a component of motion transverse to the extension plane of the entry plane. In this process, a single airflow has a component of motion transverse to the extension plane of the entry plane. However, a single airflow also has a motion component in the direction forming the extension plane. Circular motion or vortex motion is preferably formed in these directions. Wherein, a single gas flow passes through the first mixing chamber along a spiral line, for example, from the bottom to the top along the virtual axis of the mixing chamber. A second mixing chamber may be provided on the inside of the first mixing chamber. The two mixing chambers can be composed of concentrically arranged pipes. In this case, the first mixing chamber forms a peripheral mixing chamber, and the second mixing chamber forms a central mixing chamber. The single airflow merges into a premixed first airflow inside the first mixing chamber, and the first airflow crosses the overflow barrier. The overflow barrier may be an end edge of a pipe that simultaneously forms the inner wall of the first mixing chamber and the outer wall of the second mixing chamber. Other second gas deflecting elements are provided in the second mixing chamber, which can cause a single deflection or multiple deflections of the gas flow that enters the second mixing chamber across the overflow barrier. The second gas deflection element is constructed and arranged in such a way as to induce vortex. The first gas deflecting element preferably adopts a structure and arrangement which can cause single or multiple deflections of the gas laminar flow, and the second gas deflecting element The pieces are arranged in a way that produces vortices. Therefore, the second gas deflection element generates a second gas vortex composed of all single gas flows. The gas flow passing through the second mixing chamber leaves the second mixing chamber through the exhaust passage, wherein the gas discharge direction is preferably transverse to the gas feed direction. Therefore, the extension direction of the exhaust passage is preferably transverse to the extension plane of the intake plane. The wall of the two mixing chambers can be cylindrical and can be formed by concentric pipes. The imaginary axis of the pipes extends transverse to the intake plane. The gas flows in opposite directions in the two pipes. These gas sources can be evaporation sources. These evaporation sources contain solid or liquid starting materials, which are turned into gaseous state by applying evaporation heat. The evaporable starting material is sent to the first mixing chamber through the inlet channel by the quantitative carrier gas. The single air flow preferably enters the first mixing chamber from the feed channel at the same average flow rate. A mass flow controller can be used to adjust the flow rate of a single gas flow. However, these gas sources can also be aerosol evaporators. It also changes the liquid or solid starting material into a gaseous state by applying evaporation heat. The mass flow of steam can be controlled on the one hand by the temperature of the evaporation surface and on the other hand by the flow of carrier gas. According to the present invention, the residence time of each gas in the gas mixing device (that is, the area between the gas source and the gas inlet mechanism of the CVD reactor) is substantially the same length. The difference in residence time is at most 10 ms. The residence time of these gases in the gas mixing device is preferably not more than 100 milliseconds. In an alternative device, the first mixing chamber may also have a flow obstacle to generate vortices. The second mixing chamber may also have flow obstacles. However, it can also have flow guiding elements for forming laminar flow.
