Abstract
The present disclosure discloses a lift thimble system, a reaction chamber, and semiconductor processing equipment, including a wafer thimble device configured to lift a wafer from a base by rising or drop the wafer onto the base by descending, and a focus ring thimble device configured to lift a focus ring from an initial position of the focus ring by rising to cause an inner ring area of an upper surface of the focus ring to lift an edge area of the wafer, or cause the focus ring to return to the initial position by descending. The technical solutions of the system, the reaction chamber, and the equipment of the present disclosure improve maintenance efficiency of an abnormal situation, and double the service lifetime of the focus ring. Moreover, the technical solutions may further realize replacement of the focus ring without damaging reaction chamber vacuum to improve efficiency.
