摘要:
A method for generating an ion flux asymmetry in a capacitively coupled radiofrequency plasma reactor (4) comprises a step of exciting a first electrode (24) with a radiofrequency voltage waveform. The normalized voltage waveform is a waveform approximated, with a degree of approximation, by a normalized sawtooth wave radiofrequency function having different up and down slopes. The degree of approximation of the approximate waveform and the pressure P of the gas (6) are sufficiently high to cause an ion flux asymmetry to appear between the ion flux at the first electrode and the ion flux at a second electrode (26).
