Gridded susceptor

Susceptor designs are provided for controlling damage to wafers, particularly during cold wafer drops-off on a hot susceptor. The designs include axisymmetric grid designs, such that thermal gradients are symmetrical in the circumferential (theta) direction and the same traversing any particular rad...

Zusammenfassung:	Susceptor designs are provided for controlling damage to wafers, particularly during cold wafer drops-off on a hot susceptor. The designs include axisymmetric grid designs, such that thermal gradients are symmetrical in the circumferential (theta) direction and the same traversing any particular radial line. The grids are preferably arcuate and each have the same surface area. In one embodiment an outer zone is asymmetrically designed to induce predictable wafer curling in a saddle shape.
