APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR ADJUSTING PLATE TEMPERATURE
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20250006523 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR ADJUSTING PLATE TEMPERATURE
Original Abstract Submitted
a non-transitory computer readable medium to thermally adjust a chamber component is disclosed therein. the non-transitory computer readable medium includes instructions that when executed cause a plurality of operations to be conducted. the operations include sensing a first temperature of the chamber component within a semiconductor processing chamber, comparing the first temperature to a first set-point of the chamber component, and adjusting a purge gas flowrate of a purge gas supplied to a portion of the processing chamber. the plurality of operations include sensing a second temperature of a reflector component in the portion of the semiconductor processing chamber, comparing the second temperature of the reflector component to a second set-point of the reflector component, and initiating a reflector cooling operation within the reflector component when the second temperature exceeds the second set-point. the portion is at least partially physically isolated from a processing portion by a thermally transmissive window.
