Abstract:
A gas plenum arrangement for a substrate processing system includes a gas plenum body arranged to define a gas plenum between a coil and a processing chamber. The coil is arranged outside of an outer edge of the gas plenum body. A plurality of flux attenuating portions is arranged outside of the outer edge of the gas plenum body. The flux attenuation portions overlap the coil.
