Abstract:
A method of reducing ventilation gas flow rate through a gas cabinet comprising a gas source vessel and a gas delivery system comprising a gas cabinet.
Abstract:
Apparatus and method for dispensing a gas using a gas source (102) coupled in selective flow relationship with a gas manifold (126). The gas manifold (126) including flow circuitry (110) for discharging gas to a gas-using zone, and the gas source (126) includes a pressure-regulated gas source vessel (126) containing the gas at superatomospheric pressure.
Abstract:
A vaporizer system for vaporizing solid and/or liquid chemical source materials under uniform heating conditions within the vaporizer system, with reduced condensation of vaporized source materials and minimization of "cold spots" within the vaporizer, to provide a substantially continuous flow of vapor to a downstream implantation or deposition (e.g., MOCVD) system. The vaporizer includes a thermally conductive block having a multiplicity of elongated wells formed therein for holding a vapor source material. Within the thermally conductive block is an interior volume communicating with the elongated wells. The thermally conductive block is sealed to form a closed vessel and heat is applied thereto to evenly heat all the elongated wells simultaneously and vaporize the source material therein.
