Abstract

A chamber liner for use in a semiconductor process chamber and a semiconductor process chamber containing the chamber liner are disclosed. The process chamber includes a housing having an inner surface defining a chamber in which a vacuum is drawn during processing of a semiconductor wafer. The chamber liner has a plasma confinement shield with a plurality of apertures. An outer sidewall extends upwardly from the plasma confinement shield. An outer flange extends outwardly from the outer sidewall such that the outer flange extends beyond the chamber and into a space at atmospheric pressure. The chamber liner preferably further includes an inner sidewall that extends upwardly from the plasma confinement shield. The plasma confinement shield, the inner and outer sidewalls, and the outer flange are preferably integral with one another.
