ABSTRACT:
A gas delivering apparatus useful for improving the level of uniformity of thin film deposited over a silicon wafer in a chemical vapor deposition. By reshaping the injector from a conventional straight hollow tube to a funnel-shaped profile, the opening of the injector is widened. With a wider injector opening, the gas flow rate becomes slower and hence more capable of spreading over a wider wafer surface area. Consequently, a uniform gas flow pattern is established resulting in the deposition of a uniform layer.
