    摘要: A plasma etching apparatus of an electrodeless system can uniformize a radical density, and improve the uniformity of etching. The plasma etching apparatus of the electrodeless system includes a decompression chamber, a gas supply mechanism, a dielectric window, a plasma generation unit, a stage on which a sample is placed, and a first RF power supply connected to the stage. The plasma etching apparatus further includes a gas introduction mechanism for supplying a second gas, and a second RF power supply for inputting a RF power that allows radicals to be generated in an outer periphery of the sample.

    摘要: The present invention is intended to improve the uniformity in a distribution function of incident ion energy inside a wafer surface, and realize uniform plasma processing (etching or the like) inside the wafer surface. In a plasma processing apparatus, a bias application portion of a placement electrode on which a wafer is placed is divided into an inner electrode and an outer electrode at positions near the center of the wafer and the edge thereof. Each of a first bias power and a second bias power to be used to accelerate ions incident on the wafer is bifurcated, and the resultant bias powers are fed to the inner electrode and outer electrode using a power distributor by adjusting the power ratio.

    摘要: The present invention provides a plasma processing apparatus in which a plasma distribution, a plasma potential, an etching characteristic or a surface processing characteristic varies in time and spatially, and controllability and reliability are high. In the plasma processing apparatus, at least part of a discharge forming electromagnetic wave is introduced into a processing chamber through a transmission electrode. The transmission electrode is provided with a transmission electrode layer as at least part of constituent elements therefor. Slender-shaped slot opening areas are densely formed in the transmission electrode layer. The transmission electrode behaves like a material having electrical conductivity for an RF bias electromagnetic wave or ion plasma vibrations, thereby implementing high stability and high reliability of plasma characteristics and plasma processing characteristics.
