摘要:
In a microwave plasma processing apparatus, a metal made lattice-like shower plate (111) is provided between a dielectric material shower plate (103), and a plasma excitation gas (mainly an inert gas) and a process gas are discharged from different locations. High energy ions can be incident on a surface of the substrate (114) by grounding the lattice-like shower plate. The thickness of each of the dielectric material separation wall (102) and the dielectric material at a microwave introducing part is optimized so as to maximize the plasma excitation efficiency, and, at the same time, the distance between the slot antenna (110) and the dielectric material separation wall (102) and a thickness of the dielectric material shower plate (103) are optimized so as to be capable of supplying a microwave having a large power.

摘要:
A gas supply path structure forms a fluid path for allowing a laser gas to flow into or out of a pair of fluid inlet and outlet 11a and a laser gas is controlled to a predetermined subsonic speed at a throat portion. Gas supplies for controlling the speed of the gas are connected each to the fluid inlet and to the fluid outlet of the gas supply path structure and, together with a cooling device, compose a circulation system for controlling the speed and pressure of the laser gas at the fluid inlet and/or at the fluid outlet.
