下面結合附圖,對本創作的具體實施方式作進一步的詳細說明。The specific implementation of the present creation will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

其中,氣體噴淋單元包括2個氣體腔,其分別為第一氣體腔21和第二氣體腔22,用於向反應腔室的不同區域導入反應氣體。The gas shower unit includes two gas chambers, which are a first gas chamber 21 and a second gas chamber 22, respectively, for introducing a reaction gas into different regions of the reaction chamber.

該反應氣體供給裝置包括2條氣體導入通道,分別為第一通道111、第二通道112,以及2個調節閥,分別為第一調節閥121、第二調節閥122,以及一脈寬調製單元13。The reaction gas supply device includes two gas introduction channels, which are a first channel 111, a second channel 112, and two regulating valves, respectively a first regulating valve 121, a second regulating valve 122, and a pulse width modulation unit. 13.

第一調節閥121接入第一通道111,以調節第一通道111中反應氣體的流量。第一通道111與氣體噴淋單元的第一氣體腔21連通,以使反應氣體通過第一氣體腔21導入反應腔室中。The first regulating valve 121 is connected to the first passage 111 to adjust the flow rate of the reaction gas in the first passage 111. The first passage 111 communicates with the first gas chamber 21 of the gas shower unit to introduce the reaction gas into the reaction chamber through the first gas chamber 21.

第二調節閥122接入第二通道112,以調節第二通道112中反應氣體的流量。第二通道112與氣體噴淋單元的第二氣體腔22連通,以使反應氣體通過第二氣體腔22導入反應腔室中。The second regulator valve 122 is coupled to the second passage 112 to regulate the flow rate of the reactant gas in the second passage 112. The second passage 112 communicates with the second gas chamber 22 of the gas shower unit to introduce the reaction gas into the reaction chamber through the second gas chamber 22.

第一通道111、第二通道112另一端均與同一個反應氣體混合裝置或混合腔室連通(附圖未示出),以導入混合後的反應氣體。The other end of the first passage 111 and the second passage 112 are connected to the same reaction gas mixing device or mixing chamber (not shown in the drawing) to introduce the mixed reaction gas.

脈寬調製單元13發出2種脈寬信號,分別為第一脈寬信號和第二脈寬信號,分別用於控制第一調節閥121和第二調節閥122。The pulse width modulation unit 13 emits two kinds of pulse width signals, which are a first pulse width signal and a second pulse width signal, respectively, for controlling the first regulating valve 121 and the second regulating valve 122, respectively.

具體地,當第一脈寬信號為高電平時,第一調節閥121完全打開,反應氣體無阻礙地自第一通道111通入第一氣體腔21中;當第一脈寬信號為低電平時,第一調節閥121關閉,第一通道111被隔斷。Specifically, when the first pulse width signal is at a high level, the first regulating valve 121 is fully opened, and the reaction gas is unimpeded from the first passage 111 into the first gas chamber 21; when the first pulse width signal is low Normally, the first regulating valve 121 is closed and the first passage 111 is blocked.

當第一脈寬信號具有一定的頻率時,通過控制第一調節閥121,第一通道111的通或斷的狀態會很快地進行切換,即第一調節閥121以較高的頻率開或關,第一調節閥121打開或關閉的頻率對應於第一脈寬信號的頻率,從而根據第一脈寬信號的占空比以及頻率可調節第一通道111中的反應氣體流量。When the first pulse width signal has a certain frequency, by controlling the first regulating valve 121, the on or off state of the first passage 111 is quickly switched, that is, the first regulating valve 121 is opened at a higher frequency or Off, the frequency at which the first regulator valve 121 is turned on or off corresponds to the frequency of the first pulse width signal, so that the flow rate of the reactant gas in the first passage 111 can be adjusted according to the duty ratio and frequency of the first pulse width signal.

或者,調節閥並不處於完全打開或關閉的狀態,而是為部分打開的狀態,例如,當第一脈寬信號為高電平時,第一調節閥121控制反應氣體以第一流速流經第一通道111;當第一脈寬信號為低電平時,第一調節閥121控制反應氣體以第二流速流經第一通道111,其中,第一流速大於第二流速。第一調節閥121在上述兩種狀態間切換的頻率對應於第一脈寬信號的頻率。Alternatively, the regulating valve is not in a fully open or closed state, but is in a partially open state. For example, when the first pulse width signal is at a high level, the first regulating valve 121 controls the reaction gas to flow through the first flow rate. a channel 111; when the first pulse width signal is low, the first regulating valve 121 controls the reaction gas to flow through the first channel 111 at a second flow rate, wherein the first flow rate is greater than the second flow rate. The frequency at which the first regulator valve 121 switches between the above two states corresponds to the frequency of the first pulse width signal.

類似地,第二脈寬信號以同樣的原理控制第二調節 閥122,根據第二脈寬信號的占空比以及頻率調節第二通道112中的反應氣體流量。Similarly, the second pulse width signal controls the second adjustment with the same principle The valve 122 adjusts the flow rate of the reactive gas in the second passage 112 according to the duty ratio and frequency of the second pulse width signal.

進一步地,相同時間內第一通道111中的反應氣體流量大於第二通道112中的反應氣體流量,以使反應腔室中央區域的反應氣體密度高於邊緣區域的反應氣體密度,以滿足等離子體處理工藝對反應氣體分佈的要求。Further, the flow rate of the reaction gas in the first channel 111 is greater than the flow rate of the reaction gas in the second channel 112 in the same time, so that the density of the reaction gas in the central region of the reaction chamber is higher than the density of the reaction gas in the edge region to satisfy the plasma. The process requirements for the distribution of the reactant gases.

進一步地,第一脈寬信號的占空比大於第二脈寬信號的占空比。Further, the duty ratio of the first pulse width signal is greater than the duty ratio of the second pulse width signal.

進一步地,脈寬調製單元13包括一脈寬調製控制器和一參數設置平臺,用戶通過該參數設置平臺可設置第一、第二脈寬信號的占空比以及頻率等參數,脈寬調製控制器根據這些參數發出第一、第二脈寬信號。Further, the pulse width modulation unit 13 includes a pulse width modulation controller and a parameter setting platform. The user can set parameters such as duty ratio and frequency of the first and second pulse width signals through the parameter setting platform, and pulse width modulation control. The first and second pulse width signals are issued according to these parameters.

進一步地,脈寬調製控制器發出的第一、第二脈寬信號頻率均大於50HZ。Further, the first and second pulse width signals emitted by the pulse width modulation controller are both greater than 50 Hz.

圖2示出根據本創作第二實施例的反應氣體供給裝置。和第一實施例的反應氣體供給裝置相比,其更包括第三通道113和第三調節閥123,其中第三通道113一端與第一通道111、第二通道112分別連通,另一端與一個反應氣體混合裝置或混合腔室連通(附圖未示出),反應氣體自第三通道113分別導入第一通道111、第二通道112中,再導向氣體噴淋單元。第三調節閥123接入第三通道113中,用於穩定第一通道111、第二通道112中的反應氣體的氣壓,另一方面,第三調節閥123可以同時調節第一通道111、第二通道112中的反應氣體流量。Fig. 2 shows a reaction gas supply device according to a second embodiment of the present creation. Compared with the reaction gas supply device of the first embodiment, it further includes a third passage 113 and a third regulating valve 123, wherein one end of the third passage 113 communicates with the first passage 111 and the second passage 112, respectively, and the other end and one The reaction gas mixing device or the mixing chamber is connected (not shown in the drawing), and the reaction gas is introduced into the first passage 111 and the second passage 112 from the third passage 113, respectively, and is guided to the gas shower unit. The third regulating valve 123 is inserted into the third passage 113 for stabilizing the air pressure of the reaction gas in the first passage 111 and the second passage 112. On the other hand, the third regulating valve 123 can simultaneously adjust the first passage 111, the first The flow of reactant gas in the second channel 112.

具體地,脈寬調製單元13發出第三脈寬信號,根據其占空比以及頻率控制第三調節閥123的調節動作。當第三脈寬信號為高電平時,第三調節閥123完全打開,反應氣體無阻礙地流過第三通道113,從而進入第一通道111、第二通道112,當第三脈寬信號為低電平時,第三調節閥123關閉,第三通道113被 關閉。第三調節閥123打開或關閉的頻率對應於第三脈寬信號的頻率。Specifically, the pulse width modulation unit 13 issues a third pulse width signal, and controls the adjustment operation of the third regulating valve 123 according to its duty ratio and frequency. When the third pulse width signal is at a high level, the third regulating valve 123 is fully opened, and the reaction gas flows through the third channel 113 unimpeded, thereby entering the first channel 111 and the second channel 112, when the third pulse width signal is When the level is low, the third regulating valve 123 is closed, and the third channel 113 is shut down. The frequency at which the third regulating valve 123 is opened or closed corresponds to the frequency of the third pulse width signal.

或者,第三調節閥123並不處於完全打開或關閉的狀態,而是為部分打開的狀態,例如,當第三脈寬信號為高電平時,第三調節閥123控制反應氣體以較高流速流經第三通道113;當第三脈寬信號為低電平時,第三調節閥123控制反應氣體以較低流速流經第三通道113。第三調節閥123在上述兩種狀態間切換的頻率對應於第三脈寬信號的頻率。Alternatively, the third regulating valve 123 is not in a fully open or closed state, but is in a partially open state, for example, when the third pulse width signal is at a high level, the third regulating valve 123 controls the reaction gas to a higher flow rate. Flowing through the third channel 113; when the third pulse width signal is low, the third regulating valve 123 controls the reaction gas to flow through the third channel 113 at a lower flow rate. The frequency at which the third regulator valve 123 switches between the above two states corresponds to the frequency of the third pulse width signal.

脈寬調製單元13更發出第一脈寬信號和第二脈寬信號,分別用於控制第一調節閥121和第二調節閥122。當第一脈寬信號為高電平時,第一調節閥121完全打開,反應氣體無阻礙地自第一通道111通入第一氣體腔21中;當第一脈寬信號為低電平時,第一調節閥121關閉,第一通道111被隔斷。或者,調節閥並不處於完全打開或關閉的狀態,而是為部分打開的狀態,高、低電平分別對應於反應氣體不同的流速。The pulse width modulation unit 13 further generates a first pulse width signal and a second pulse width signal for controlling the first regulating valve 121 and the second regulating valve 122, respectively. When the first pulse width signal is at a high level, the first regulating valve 121 is fully opened, and the reaction gas is unimpeded from the first passage 111 into the first gas chamber 21; when the first pulse width signal is low, the first A regulating valve 121 is closed and the first passage 111 is blocked. Alternatively, the regulating valve is not in a fully open or closed state, but is in a partially open state, and the high and low levels respectively correspond to different flow rates of the reaction gases.

即第一脈寬信號根據其占空比以及頻率來調節第一通道111中的反應氣體流量,第二脈寬信號以同樣的原理控制第二調節閥122,根據第二脈寬信號的占空比以及頻率調節第二通道112中的反應氣體流量。That is, the first pulse width signal adjusts the flow rate of the reactive gas in the first channel 111 according to its duty ratio and frequency, and the second pulse width signal controls the second regulating valve 122 by the same principle, according to the duty of the second pulse width signal. The ratio and frequency adjust the flow of reactant gases in the second passage 112.

進一步地,相同時間內第一通道111中的反應氣體流量大於第二通道112中的反應氣體流量。Further, the flow rate of the reaction gas in the first passage 111 is greater than the flow rate of the reaction gas in the second passage 112 in the same time.

進一步地,第一脈寬信號的占空比大於第二脈寬信號的占空比。Further, the duty ratio of the first pulse width signal is greater than the duty ratio of the second pulse width signal.

Compared with the reaction gas supply device of the second embodiment, it further includes a first intercepting pipe 141 and a second intercepting pipe 142.

第一截流管141接入第一通道111中,並根據該第一截流管141兩端的反應氣體壓力差,使第一通道111中的反應氣體流量保持恒定。第二截流管142接入第二通道112中,並根據該第二截流管142兩端的反應氣體壓力差,使第二通道112中的反應氣體流量保持恒定。The first intercepting pipe 141 is inserted into the first passage 111, and the flow rate of the reaction gas in the first passage 111 is kept constant according to the reaction gas pressure difference across the first intercepting pipe 141.
