First Claim
Patent Images
1. An apparatus for treating a substrate, comprising:
- a stage adapted to receive the substrate;
a gas shield facing the substrate and having a retention space;
an energy source disposed such that light emitted therefrom irradiates a part of the substrate through the retention space; and
a dispense unit including a pin nozzle through which a reaction gas is injected towards the part of the substrate.

Abstract
An apparatus for treating a thin film on a substrate includes a stage on which the substrate is disposed. A gas shield faces the substrate. An energy source irradiates a part of the substrate with light emitted therefrom through a retention space of the gas shield. A dispense unit includes a pin nozzle that injects a reaction gas towards the part of the substrate.

17. A method of treating a thin film on a substrate, comprising:
-
placing the substrate on a stage;
irradiating a part of the substrate with light from an energy source; and
injecting a reaction gas through a pin nozzle to the irradiated part of the substrate such that the reaction gas is activated by the light to treat the thin film. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)

28. An apparatus for treating a substrate, comprising:
-
a stage adapted to receive the substrate;
a gas shield facing the stage and having a retention space;
an energy source disposed such that light emitted therefrom radiates towards a part of the stage through the retention space; and
a dispense unit adapted to inject a reaction gas toward the part of the stage, the dispense unit containing a gas supply path and an injection port, the injection port extending from the gas shield towards the stage and having an end with a cross-sectional area substantially smaller than that of the gas supply path. - View Dependent Claims (29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43)
