Abstract:
A method in a plasma processing system of determining the temperature of a substrate. The method includes providing a substrate comprising a set of materials, wherein the substrate being configured to absorb electromagnetic radiation comprising a first set of electromagnetic frequencies, to convert the first set of electromagnetic frequencies to a set of thermal vibrations, and to transmit a second set of electromagnetic frequencies. The method also includes positioning the substrate on a substrate support structure, wherein the substrate support structure includes a chuck; flowing an etchant gas mixture into a plasma reactor of the plasma processing system; and striking the etchant gas mixture to create a plasma, wherein the plasma comprises the first set of electromagnetic frequencies. The method further includes processing the substrate with the plasma thereby generating the second set of electromagnetic frequencies; calculating a magnitude of the second set of electromagnetic frequencies; and converting the magnitude to a temperature value.

US Patent:
20070021935, Jan 25, 2007
Filed:
Jul 12, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/178323
Inventors:
Dean Larson - Pleasanton CA, US
Robert Hefty - Mountain View CA, US
James Tietz - Fremont CA, US
Williams Kennedy - Fremont CA, US
Eric Lenz - Pleasanton CA, US

Enrico Magni - Pleasanton CA, US
International Classification:
G01F 25/00
US Classification:
702100000, 239071000
Abstract:
Methods of measuring gas flow rates in a gas supply system for supplying gas to a plasma processing chamber are provided. In a differential flow method, a flow controller is operated at different set flow rates, and upstream orifice pressures are measured for the set flow rates at ambient conditions. The measured orifice pressures are referenced to a secondary flow verification method that generates corresponding actual gas flow rates for the different set flow rates. The upstream orifice pressures can be used as a differential comparison for subsequent orifice pressure measurements taken at any temperature condition of the chamber. In an absolute flow method, some parameters of a selected gas and orifice are predetermined, and other parameters of the gas are measured while the gas is being flowed from a flow controller at a set flow rate through an orifice. In this method, any flow controller set point can be flowed at any time and at any chamber condition, such as during plasma processing operations. Gas supply systems are also disclosed.
