ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an apparatus for semiconductor processing in which the reactor chamber and the vacuum conduit means connected to the chamber are coated with a film of halogenated polymer material having a low vapor pressure and a low sticking coefficient. Preferred materials include low molecular weight polyfluoroethylene polymers such as polytetrafluoroethylene and polychlorotrifluoro-ethylene. A method is provided to prevent contaminant buildup on coated surfaces of semiconductor processing chambers and vacuum conduit means connected thereto during processing of a workpiece.
