Variable Mode Plasma Chamber Utilizing Tunable Plasma Potential
摘要:
Plasma processing apparatus and associated methods are provided. In one example, a plasma processing apparatus can include a plasma chamber configured to be able to hold a plasma. The plasma processing apparatus can include a dielectric window forming at least a portion of a wall of the plasma chamber. The plasma processing apparatus can include an inductive coupling element located proximate the dielectric window. The inductive coupling element can be configured to generate a plasma from the process gas in the plasma chamber when energized with radio frequency (RF) energy. The plasma processing apparatus can include a processing chamber having a workpiece support configured to support a workpiece. The plasma processing apparatus can include an electrostatic shield located between the inductive coupling element and the dielectric window. The electrostatic shield can be grounded via a tunable reactive impedance circuit to a ground reference.
