PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To find a deviation amount of effective power of microwaves between plasma processing devices.SOLUTION: In this method, a deviation amount of effective power of microwaves generated between plural plasma processing devices 100, 200 is found. Processing gas is supplied in an exhausted processing container 12 to seal the container. Microwaves are introduced to the sealed processing container 12 at a predetermined voltage to generate plasma of processing gas. Variation width between a pressure in the processing container 12 before generating plasma and a pressure in the processing container after generating plasma is measured. The deviation amount of the effective power of the microwaves between the plasma processing device 100 and the other plasma processing device 200 is found on the basis of a pre-found correlation between the variation width of the pressure of the other plasma processing device to be a reference and microwave supply power.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a plasma ashing process for reducing the temperature at an impingement portion i.e., center portion, of a baffle plate, while maintaining or enhancing the photoresist removal rate.SOLUTION: The plasma ashing process for removing photoresist material and post etch residues from a substrate including a low k dielectric material comprising carbon, hydrogen, or a combination of carbon and hydrogen comprises: forming a plasma from an essentially oxygen free and nitrogen free gas mixture; flowing the plasma through a baffle plate assembly onto the substrate and removing photoresist material, post etch residues, and volatile byproducts from the substrate; and flowing a cooling gas over the baffle plate during a period of operation in which the plasma is not formed.
摘要:
A shower plate is disposed in a processing chamber in a plasma processing apparatus, and plasma excitation gas is released into the processing chamber so as to generate plasma. A ceramic member having a plurality of gas release holes having a diameter of 20 μm to 70 μm, and/or a porous gas-communicating body having pores having a maximum diameter of not more than 75 μm communicating in the gas-communicating direction are sintered and bonded integrally with the inside of each of a plurality of vertical holes which act as release paths for the plasma excitation gas.
