A plasma processing apparatus includes a processing chamber, a stage, a dielectric member, a microwave introduction device, an injector, and an electric field shield. The processing chamber has a processing space therein. The stage is provided within the processing chamber. The dielectric member has a through hole and is provided to face the stage. The microwave introduction device is configured to introduce microwave into the processing space via the dielectric member. The injector has at least one through hole and is made of a dielectric material, e.g., a bulk dielectric material. The injector is provided within the dielectric member. The injector and the through hole of the dielectric member form a path for supplying a processing gas into the processing space. The electric field shield encloses the injector.

In a dielectric window 41 for a plasma processing apparatus, a first dielectric window recess 47 is formed on an outer region of a surface of the dielectric window 41 in a diametrical direction of the dielectric window 41 at a side where plasma is generated, and the first dielectric window recess 47 is extended in a ring shape and has a tapered shape inwardly in a thickness direction of the dielectric window 41. A multiple number of second dielectric window recesses 53a to 53g are formed between the center of the dielectric window 41 and the first dielectric window recess 47, and each of the second dielectric window recesses 53a to 53g is recessed inwardly in the thickness direction of the dielectric window 41 from the surface of the dielectric window 41.
摘要:
An antenna, a dielectric window, a plasma processing apparatus and a plasma processing method are capable of improving uniformity of a substrate surface processing amount in the surface of the substrate. The antenna includes the dielectric window 16; and a slot plate 20, provided on one side of the dielectric window 16, having a plurality of slots 133. The dielectric window 16 has a flat surface 146 surrounded by a ring-shaped first recess; and a plurality of second recesses 153 formed on the flat surface 146 so as to surround a center of the flat surface 146. Here, the flat surface 146 is formed on the other side of the dielectric window 16. When viewed from a thickness direction of the slot plate, a center of each second recess 153 is located within each slot 133 of the slot plate.
