This paper describes the continuing design evolution of a new approach to spatially controllable chemical vapor deposition for electronic materials manufacturing. Based on the success of a previous prototype reactor, we describe construction of a newer version of the prototype reactor system to assess its performance and identify its key operational characteristics. This new design includes a fully automated feed gas control system, allowing the reprogramming of reactor operation without hardware modifications and a time-shared gas sampling mass spectrometer for spatially resolved across-wafer gas composition analysis.
