PRECURSOR DELIVERY SYSTEMS FOR DETERMINING MATERIAL LEVELS

A precursor delivery system for determining material levels and related methods can include an ampoule and at least one tray disposed in the ampoule. The at least one tray may be configured to hold an amount of a precursor material. A load cell assembly is also included. The load cell assembly may i...

Zusammenfassung:A precursor delivery system for determining material levels and related methods can include an ampoule and at least one tray disposed in the ampoule. The at least one tray may be configured to hold an amount of a precursor material. A load cell assembly is also included. The load cell assembly may include a load cell. The load cell assembly may be coupled to the at least one tray in a configuration sufficient for the at least one tray to exert a mechanical force upon the load cell. This mechanical force may be correlative to the amount of precursor material present on the at least one tray and thus may be used to determine material levels within the ampoule.
