Abstract: In an etch process chamber, oscillators are positioned a predetermined distance away from an outer wall and coupled to a microwave generator. An inner wall of the process chamber on which particulates such as polymers adhere from the etch process is vibrated via operations of the oscillators. A gas flows into the cavity defined by the inner wall to collect the displaced particulates, which is then pumped out of the cavity to clean the process chamber. A controller identifies the polymer recipe used during the etch process and selects an oscillation program from memory. A microwave generator, controlled by the controller, is directed to generate microwaves at preselected frequencies determined from the program. The microwave frequencies are communicated to the oscillators, which then vibrate the inner wall at such received frequencies.

Abstract: A method and system for creating readily identifiable discrete markings on an application surface of an object. The system comprises a stencil having a cutout openings forming a discrete identifier, and a marking reagent comprising an organic solvent, isopropyl alcohol, and a metal marking component. After applying the stencil to an application surface, the marking reagent is applied to the application surface via the cutout openings. The marking reagent may then etch the discrete identifier as well portions on an interior portion of the application surface. In some applications, the system may be applied to a surface having dirt and grease. In addition, marking reagent may embed a cured portion of the marking reagent within the well portions

Abstract: The present invention provides a wet etching device and an explosion prevention method thereof. The heater (22) is utilized to monitor the temperature in the liquid storage tank (2). When the temperature in the liquid storage tank (2) reaches the preset upper temperature limit, the control device (23) automatically deactivates the heater (22), and activates the chamber cleaning device (11) to spray the cleaning water. After washing the reaction chamber (1), the cleaning water flows back in the liquid storage tank (2) and neutralizes the etching solution in the liquid storage tank (2) to lower the temperature in the liquid storage tank (2). It can effectively monitor and reduce the temperature in the liquid storage tank (2) to prevent that the liquid storage tank (2) is overheated and explodes, to ensure the production safety and raise the production utilization rate.
