ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and a method for preventing buildup of silicon oxides and silicon carbides on the inner surface of exhaust sleeves utilized in Czochralski (Cz) silicon crystal pullers are provided. The apparatus and the method include the provision of a vapor impervious layer coated on the inner surface of an exhaust sleeve, and forming a barrier to silicon oxides and silicon carbides deposition on the inner surface, to prevent the buildup of silicon oxides and silicon carbides on the surface of exhaust sleeves, thereby allowing more uniform laminar flow of process gases in the Cz chamber and the exhaust sleeve, and extending the useful lifetime of exhaust sleeves.
