Method and processing chamber for reducing warpage of a substrate

Abstract

Disclosed herein are a warpage control method and system for warpage control included in a processing chamber. The warpage control method includes heating a substrate by a heating assembly comprising a plurality of independently controllable heating zones, measuring a backside temperature of a susceptor based on radiation at a first wavelength, measuring a topside temperature of the substrate based on radiation at a second wavelength, measuring a curvature of the substrate based on radiation at a third wavelength, and controlling the heating assembly based on the backside temperature, the topside temperature, and the curvature. The warpage control system includes a first thermal sensor and an warp sensor disposed above a substrate, a second thermal sensor disposed below the substrate, a heating assembly, and a controller coupled with the heating assembly, the first thermal sensor, the second thermal sensor, and the warp sensor for controlling the warpage of the substrate.
