本発明はCVD装置に関し、特に反応管内でガスによる
化学反応時に生成される反応生成物の円筒配管への堆積
防止を図った排気系の構造に関するものである。[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a CVD apparatus, and in particular to a structure of an exhaust system designed to prevent reaction products generated during a chemical reaction with gas in a reaction tube from being deposited on a cylindrical pipe. It is related to.

7により捕捉されている。In a general CVD apparatus, as shown in the partially cross-sectional front view of FIG. 5, a reaction tube 2 is used to chemically grow a film on a substrate 1.
and a gas supply source 3 installed to introduce gas into the reaction tube 2.
Then, a film is grown on the substrate 1 by a chemical reaction using a heat source 4 installed to heat the substrate 1, a cylindrical pipe 5 and a vacuum pump 6 installed to exhaust the gas in the reaction tube 2. There is. Further, the gas that is not chemically grown on the substrate 1 is deposited as reaction products in the reaction tube 2, and most of the remaining reaction products are discharged from the outlet of the reaction tube 2 and captured by the trapping box 7. .
しかし実際、反応生成物は反応管2の後の円筒配管5の
内壁に堆積しやすい、これは円筒配管5が外気にさらさ

て、円筒配管5を極力短くするか、円筒配管5の温度を
低下させないように加熱源4の熱が伝わり易くする等の
工夫をしてきた。However, in reality, reaction products tend to accumulate on the inner wall of the cylindrical pipe 5 after the reaction tube 2. This is because the cylindrical pipe 5 is installed in a place exposed to the outside air, so the reaction products are more likely to accumulate on the inner wall of the cylindrical pipe 5 than on the inside of the reaction tube 2. This is because the temperature is lower. As a method for preventing reaction products from adhering to the cylindrical pipe 5 in conventional CVD equipment, measures such as making the cylindrical pipe 5 as short as possible or making it easier for the heat of the heating source 4 to be transmitted so as not to lower the temperature of the cylindrical pipe 5 are taken. I've been doing it.

き起こすなどのトラブル要因となっていた。In the conventional CVD equipment described above, even if efforts are made to prevent the temperature of the cylindrical pipe from decreasing, the absolute temperature difference between the inside of the reaction tube and the cylindrical pipe cannot be covered, and the accumulation of reaction products on the inner surface of the cylindrical pipe cannot be prevented. Therefore, the diameter of the cylindrical pipe is gradually narrowed due to the accumulated reaction products, leading to a decrease in the displacement required by the vacuum pump, and because the products are not deposited in the intended place where they should be captured, fluctuations in exhaust and Fragments of reaction products were peeled off due to vibrations, passed through the trapping box, and even arrived at the vacuum pump, causing problems such as overloading the pump.
このトラブル発生を防止するため、定期的に捕捉箱及び

。In order to prevent this problem from occurring, it is necessary to periodically remove the capture box and cylindrical piping from the equipment and clean it, which necessitates stopping the equipment and reducing the equipment operating rate due to increased cleaning time. That was causing a problem.

A CV with a capture box installed in a
In apparatus D, at least one cylindrical pipe is provided between the capture box and the reaction tube, one friction member is disposed to rub the inner wall surface of the cylinder on the inner surface of the cylindrical pipe, and the friction member is connected to the cylindrical pipe.

A cylindrical pipe 5 and a vacuum pump 6 were installed to exhaust the gas inside the reaction tube 2, and a cylindrical pipe 5 and a vacuum pump 6 were installed after the cylindrical pipe 5 to capture reaction products generated during the chemical reaction inside the reaction tube 2. In a CVD apparatus configured with a capture box 7, at least one cylindrical pipe 5 is provided between the capture box 7 and the reaction tube 2, and at least one cylindrical pipe 5 is disposed on the inner surface of the cylindrical pipe 5 to rub the inner wall surface of the cylindrical pipe 5. The cylindrical pipe 5 and the friction member 8 are made of metal; The friction member 8 is constructed by combining bar materials as shown in FIG.

No reaction products are deposited inside the cylindrical pipe 5. Therefore, it is not necessary to clean the inside of the cylindrical pipe 5, and it is possible to improve the device operating rate and prevent troubles with the vacuum pump 6. Furthermore, since the friction member 8 and the drive motor 9 are constructed to be detachable from the cylindrical pipe 5, maintenance can be easily performed.

In this embodiment, a current monitoring box 10 is attached to the drive motor 9, and other aspects are the same as in the first embodiment.According to this embodiment, the current consumption of the drive motor 9 is constantly monitored, and if friction If the member 8 cannot rotate normally due to the influence of the reaction product, the current consumption will increase, so the system has the advantage of treating this as an abnormality, turning on the warning light 11, and notifying the operator that it is time for inspection.
