摘要:
A plasma reactor that generates plasma in a workpiece processing chamber by an electron beam, has an electron beam source and segmented beam dump that is profiled to promote uniformity in the electron beam-produced plasma.
摘要:
A plasma reactor has a main chamber for processing a workpiece in a processing region bounded between an overhead ceiling and a workpiece support surface, the reactor having an overhead electron beam source that produces an electron beam flowing into the processing region through the ceiling of the main chamber.
摘要:
A plasma, reactor that relies on an electron beam as a plasma source employs a profiled electron beam extraction grid in an electron beam source to improve uniformity.
摘要:
In a plasma reactor employing source and bias RF power generators, plasma is stabilized against an engineered transient in the output of either the source or bias power generator by a compensating modulation in the other generator.

A method is provided in plasma processing of a workpiece for stabilizing the plasma against engineered transients in applied RF power, by modulating an unmatched low power RF generator in synchronism with the transient.
摘要:
Radial distribution of etch rate is controlled by controlling the respective duty cycles of pulsed VHF source power applied to the ceiling and pulsed HF or MF bias power on the workpiece. Net average electrical charging of the workpiece is controlled by providing an electronegative process gas and controlling the voltage of a positive DC pulse on the workpiece applied during pulse off times of the pulsed VHF source power.
