Abstract

A reactor for use in a chemical vapor deposition process occurring in a radiant absorption heater system employs a vertical gas flow reaction vessel and a novel substantially solid susceptor configured as a truncated wedge. The susceptor is characterized by a high utilized area, resulting in a high wafer capacity and low power requirement.
