摘要:
A self-cleaning focus ring ( 90 ) for processing a substrate ( 25 ) in a plasma in a plasma zone, comprises a dielectric barrier ( 92 ) with a focusing surface ( 95 ) for directing and focusing a plasma onto a substrate surface, and an electrical conductor element ( 100 ) abutting at least a portion of the dielectric barrier ( 92 ). The conductor element ( 100 ) is electrically charged to attract the plasma ions toward the focusing surface ( 92 ) of the dielectric barrier ( 92 ), whereby the energetic impingement of the plasma ions on the focusing surface ( 95 ) reduces the formation of deposits on the dielectric barrier ( 92 ).
