THERMALIZING GAS INJECTORS FOR GENERATING INCREASED PRECURSOR GAS, MATERIAL DEPOSITION SYSTEMS INCLUDING SUCH INJECTORS, AND RELATED METHODS

摘要

Methods of depositing material on a substrate include forming a precursor gas and a byproduct from a source gas within a thermalizing gas injector. The byproduct may be reacted with a liquid reagent to form additional precursor gas, which may be injected from the thermalizing gas injector into a reaction chamber. Thermalizing gas injectors for injecting gas into a reaction chamber of a deposition system may include an inlet, a thermalizing conduit, a liquid container configured to hold a liquid reagent therein, and an outlet. A pathway may extend from the inlet, through the thermalizing conduit to an interior space within the liquid container, and from the interior space within the liquid container to the outlet. The thermalizing conduit may have a length that is greater than a shortest distance between the inlet and the liquid container. Deposition systems may include one or more such thermalizing gas injectors.
