Abstract
- A susceptor structure with a ring channel for a vertical metalorganic chemical vapor deposition reactor by induction heating is proposed. Thus the directions of heat conduction are changed by the channel, and the channel makes the heat in the susceptor redistribute. The pattern of heat transfer in this susceptor is also analyzed. In addition, the location and size of the channel in the susceptor are optimized using the finite element method. A comparison between the optimized and the conventional susceptor shows that the optimized susceptor not only enhances the heating efficiency but also the uniformity of temperature distribution in the wafer, which contributes to improving the quality of the film growth.
