Abstract:
A method of frequency tuning an electrical generator for supplying electrical power to a plasma is provided. Also provided is a plasma processing system and a computer program product. The method, the electrical generator, the plasma processing system, and the computer program product may have the advantage that the stability of the plasma with respect to repeated and essentially identical high and low power pulses is used to reduce the controlling effort and to check the stability of the plasma process.
