Abstract:
A control system for a plasma treatment apparatus includes a wafer treatment device. The wafer treatment device includes a vapor chamber and an upper electrode assembly. The upper electrode assembly includes a gas distribution plate having a plurality of holes. The upper electrode assembly includes an upper electrode having at least one gas nozzle and at least one controllable valve connected to the at least one gas nozzle for controlling a flow of gas from a gas supply to the holes via the at least one gas nozzle. The at least one gas nozzle is separated from the gate distribution plate by a gap. The control system includes a measurement device configured to measure a thickness profile of a wafer. The control system includes a controller configured to generate a control signal. The at least one controllable valve is configured to be adjusted based on the control signal.
