Abstract:
Embodiments of process kits for process chambers and methods for processing a substrate are provided herein. In some embodiments, a process kit includes a non-conductive upper shield having an upper portion to surround a sputtering target and a lower portion extending downward from the upper portion; and a conductive lower shield disposed radially outward of the non-conductive upper shield and having a cylindrical body with an upper portion and a lower portion, a lower wall projecting radially inward from the lower portion, and a lip protruding upward from the lower wall. The cylindrical body is spaced apart from the non-conductive upper shield by a first gap. The lower wall is spaced apart from the lower portion of the non-conductive upper shield by a second gap to limit a direct line of sight between a volume within the non-conductive upper shield and the cylindrical body of the conductive lower shield.
