    摘要: An array antenna radiates an electromagnetic wave into a chamber of a plasma processing apparatus. The array antenna includes antennas and coupling prevention elements arranged at intervals between the antennas. Each of the coupling prevention elements includes a first member connected to a ceiling wall which is a ground surface in the chamber and a second member connected to a tip end of the first member or a vicinity of the tip end of the first member.

    摘要: A method of controlling a scanning-type plasma processing apparatus using a phased array antenna, includes observing light emission of plasma generated inside a processing container through observation windows provided at multiple positions in the processing container, calculating an in-plane distribution of values representing characteristics of the plasma on a substrate, based on data on the observed light emission of the plasma, and correcting a scanning pattern and/or a plasma density distribution of the plasma based on the calculated in-plane distribution of the values representing the characteristics of the plasma on the substrate.
