Abstract
A getter system for purifying the gaseous atmosphere within a confinement volume of a process chamber is disclosed. In a process chamber provided with at least one screen that defines a confinement volume, the getter system includes at least one substantially planar getter device disposed within the confinement volume such that the at least one getter device is substantially parallel to and spaced apart from the at least one screen. The at least one getter device has an inner surface facing the at least one screen and an outer surface facing the confinement volume, with at least the inner surface being formed of getter material. The at least one getter device is spaced apart from the at least one screen such that the inner surface and the at least one screen define an inner space that is in gas flow communication with the confinement volume.
