    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for cleaning one or more chamber components having contaminants. The method includes introducing a gas mixture to a remote plasma source, the gas mixture includes argon, an oxygen-containing gas and a nitrogen-containing gas. The argon to oxygen gas ratio in the gas mixture is about 0.2:1 to about 1:1 by volume. A plasma is formed from the gas mixture in the remote plasma source. The plasma includes oxygen radicals, argon radicals, and nitrogen radicals. The plasma is introduced to a process volume of the process chamber and exposes surfaces of one or more chamber components. The process volume of the process chamber has a pressure of about 10 mTorr to about 6 Torr and a temperature above 300° C.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an apparatus including a chamber body and a lid defining a volume therein. The apparatus includes a substrate support disposed in the volume opposite the lid. The substrate support includes a support body disposed on a stem, and a ground plate disposed between the support body and the stem. A top flange is coupled to a lower peripheral surface the ground plate and a bottom flange is coupled to a bottom of the chamber body. The bottom flange and the top flange is coupled to one another with a plurality of straps, each of the straps having a first end coupled to the bottom flange and a second end coupled to the top flange.

    Abstract: A substrate processing system includes a processing chamber that includes a substrate support positioned therein. The substrate processing system includes a valve system fluidly coupled to the processing chamber and configured to control flow of gas into the processing chamber. The valve system includes a primary flow line and a first gas source flow line fluidly coupled to the primary flow line through a first gas source valve. The valve system includes a second gas source flow line fluidly coupled to the primary flow line through a second gas source valve. The first gas source valve and the second gas source valve are positioned in series within the primary flow line.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a semiconductor processing apparatus. The processing chamber includes a chamber body and lid defining an interior volume, a substrate support disposed in the interior volume and a showerhead assembly disposed between the lid and the substrate support. The showerhead assembly includes a faceplate configured to deliver a process gas to a processing region defined between the showerhead assembly and the substrate support and an underplate positioned above the faceplate, defining a first plenum between the lid and the underplate, the having multiple zones, wherein each zone has a plurality of openings that are configured to pass an amount of inert gas from the first plenum into a second plenum defined between the faceplate and the underplate, in fluid communication with the plurality of openings of each zone such that the inert gas mixes with the process gas before exiting the showerhead assembly.

    Abstract: Implementations described herein protect a substrate support from corrosive cleaning gases used at high temperatures. In one embodiment, a substrate support has a shaft and a heater. The heater has a body. The body has a top surface, a side surface and a bottom surface. The top surface is configured to support a substrate during plasma processing of the substrate. A covering is provided for at least two of the top surface, side surface and bottom surface. The covering is selected to resist corrosion of the body at temperatures in excess of about 400 degrees Celsius.
