GAS FLOW FOR CONDENSATION REDUCTION WITH A SUBSTRATE PROCESSING CHUCK
Abstract:
A gas flow is described to reduce condensation with a substrate processing chuck. In one example, a workpiece holder in the chamber having a puck to carry the workpiece for fabrication processes, a top plate thermally coupled to the puck, a cooling plate fastened to and thermally coupled to the top plate, the cooling plate having a cooling channel to carry a heat transfer fluid to transfer heat from the cooling plate, a base plate fastened to the cooling plate opposite the puck, and a dry gas inlet of the base plate to supply a dry gas under pressure to a space between the base plate and the cooling plate to drive ambient air from between the base plate and the cooling plate.
