摘要: There is provided a method for controlling a plasma processing apparatus that eliminates a preliminary study on a resonance point while maintaining a low contamination and a high uniformity even in multi-step etching. In a method for controlling a plasma processing apparatus including the step of adjusting a radio frequency bias current carried to a counter antenna electrode, the method includes the steps of: setting a reactance of a variable element to an initial value; detecting a bias current carried to the counter antenna electrode; searching for a maximum value of the detected electric current; and adjusting a value of the reactance of the variable element from the maximum value to the set value and then fixing the value.

摘要: The present invention provides a plasma processing method and a plasma processing apparatus. The plasma processing method enables consistent processing by realizing a high selectivity and a high etching rate when etching a laminated film using a boron-containing amorphous carbon film, realizes high throughput including prior and post processes by simplifying a mask forming process, and has shape controllability of vertical processing. In the present invention, in a plasma processing method for forming a mask by plasma-etching a laminated film including an amorphous carbon film containing boron, the boron-containing amorphous carbon film is plasma-etched by using a mixed gas of an oxygen gas, a fluorine-containing gas, a halogen gas, and a silicon tetrafluoride gas, or a mixed gas of an oxygen gas, a fluorine-containing gas, a halogen gas, and a silicon tetrachloride gas.

摘要: To control temperature of a sample in plasma processing with high accuracy while securing an electrostatic chucking force without breakdown of an electrostatic chucking film.When radio-frequency power is time modulated, a high-voltage side Vpp detector detects a first voltage value which is a peak-to-peak voltage value of a radio-frequency voltage applied to a sample stage in a first period of the time modulation having a first amplitude. A low-voltage side Vpp detector detects a second voltage value which is a peak-to-peak voltage value of a radio-frequency voltage applied to the sample stage in a second period having a second amplitude smaller than the first amplitude. Then, an ESC power supply control unit controls output voltages from ESC power supplies based on the first voltage value, the second voltage value and a duty ratio of the time modulation.
