    摘要: A microwave plasma process device (10) is provided with a plasma ignition enhancing means for enhancing plasma ignition by microwaves. The plasma ignition enhancing means comprises a deuterium lamp (30) which generates vacuum ultraviolet rays, and a penetration window (32) guiding the vacuum ultraviolet rays, which have penetrated the same, to a plasma excitation space (26). The penetration window (32) is constructed as a convex lens, focusing the vacuum ultraviolet rays to enhance the ionization of the plasma excitation gas. Such arrangement makes it possible to effect plasma ignition easily and rapidly.
