Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to process chambers for semiconductor processing. In one embodiment, a growth monitor for substrate processing is provided. The growth monitor includes a sensor holder and a crystal disposed in the sensor holder having a front side and a back side. An opening is formed in the sensor holder exposing a front side of the crystal. A gas inlet is disposed through the sensor holder to a plenum formed by the back side of the crystal and the sensor holder. A gas outlet is fluidly coupled to the plenum.
