Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018132788A1] A method and device are disclosed herein for distributing a gas into a vessel. The method and device utilize a gas distribution apparatus, which has an exposed surface including a material that is chemically repulsive to the gas and the solid form of the gas. In this way adsorption of the gas and deposition of the solid form of the gas are inhibited. The gas distribution apparatus also contains holes with a non-cylindrical shape. Consequently, desublimation of the gas and deposition of the solid form of the gas onto the exposed surface is inhibited.
