ABSTRACT:
Chemical vapor deposition apparatus comprises a reactor having a chamber with a coating region for coating a substrate and an exhaust region communicating with the coating region. The coating region includes an inlet for introduction of a gaseous reactant stream to pass over the substrate to react therewith to form a coating thereon and a spent gas stream. The exhaust region includes an outlet for exhausting the spent gas stream from the coating region. The substrate is supported in the coating region and heated to an elevated reaction temperature by suitable support means and heating means. A condensing assembly is disposed in the exhaust region for condensing excess, unreacted gaseous reactant from the spent gas stream before entry into the outlet. The condensing assembly includes a high surface area, apertured structure disposed in the exhaust region where the temperature of the spent gas stream is sufficiently reduced to condense excess, unreacted gaseous reactant therefrom. An enclosure is disposed around the condensing structure and configured to direct the spent gas stream from the coating region to flow through the condensing structure where the excess, unreacted gaseous reactant can condense before entering the outlet.
