Abstract:
A method and apparatus for calibrating a temperature within a processing chamber are described. The method includes determining an etch rate of a layer within the processing chamber. The processing chamber is a deposition chamber configured for use during semiconductor manufacturing. The etch rate is utilized to determine a temperature within the processing chamber. The temperature within the processing chamber is then subsequently compared to a calibrated temperature to determine a temperature offset. The etch rate is determined using any one of a pyrometer, a reflectometer, a camera, or a mass sensor.
