The top wall is connected to the transition member. The injector connecting member is connected to the top wall, positioned vertically higher than the sidewall, and configured to connect to a gas injector. Gas passes through the injector connecting member via the gas injector and into the upper region of the substrate processing chamber. A center height to low inner diameter ratio of the chamber member is 0.25-0.5 and/or a center height to outer height ratio of the chamber member is 0.4-0.85.
