    摘要: A wafer treating device utilizing a plasma generated by a gas discharge caused by electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) includes a wafer treating chamber and a plasma generating chamber, a microwave supply for supplying microwave energy to the plasma generating chamber, and an electromagnetic coil which surrounds the plasma generating chamber to produce a minimum B-field therein. A plasma generated in the plasma generating chamber by electron cyclotron resonance is confined stably therein by the minimum B-field produced by the coil. Thus, the density and stability of the plasma in the plasma generating chamber are enhanced. The plasma in the plasma generating chamber is conveyed to a wafer in the wafer treating chamber along the diverging lines of a magnetic force. Examples of the minimum B-field producing coil include Ioffe bars, a baseball coil and an Yin-yang coil.

    摘要: Fine processing is performed by using gas which contains halogen in such a manner that halogen ions contributing to an etching process and ions of a light element, the mass of which is smaller than that of the halogen ion and which does not react with a semiconductor wafer, are present in a plasma generated due to electron cyclotron resonance. Since energy in the plasma is in inverse proportion to the mass, the disorder motion of the halogen ions having large mass can be restrained. Therefore, the halogen ions can be made perpendicularly incident upon the surface of the semiconductor wafer. Consequently, etching process revealing high anisotropy can be performed.

    摘要: A semiconductor wafer treating device utilizing a gas plasma generated by electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) is disclosed whch comprises a wafer treating chamber and a plasma generating chamber communicating with the wafer treating chamber. Microwave energy at a frequency of not more than 2 GHz and not less than 100 MHz is supplied to the plasma generating chamber which is surrounded by a solenoidal coil and produces a magnetic field in the plasma generating chamber and in the wafer treating chamber to produce ECR and transport the plasma generated by ECR to the wafer. Thus, the Larmor radius of the electrons moving in helical paths in electron cyclotron resonance in the plasma generating chamber is optimized to make the plasma spatially uniform. Consequently, the uniformity of the treatment on the wafer is improved.

    摘要: An apparatus for treating semiconductor wafers utilizing a plasma generated by electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) is disclosed in which a microwave is supplied to a plasma generating chamber via a rectangular waveguide, a rectangular-to-circular microwave converter, and a circular polarization converter. The polarization converter may comprise a phase shift plate of a dielectric material or an electrically conductive material disposed in a circular waveguide in the form of a metallic cylinder. The polarization converter transforms a circular TE.sub.11 mode microwave supplied from the rectangular-to-circular microwave converter to a circularly polarized one by rotating the direction of the electric field of the microwave in the TE.sub.11 mode one complete turn in one period of the microwave. Thus, the electric field strength of the microwave supplied to the plasma generating chamber is averaged over the time along the circumferential direction in the plasma generating chamber to make the density of plasma generation therein spatially uniform. The spatially uniformly distributed plasma generated in the plasma generating chamber is conveyed to the wafer in the wafer treating chamber to effect a treatment of the wafer.

    摘要: A variable gain equalizer comprises an equalizing network having an impedance element coupled between an input terminal to which an input voltage is applied and an output terminal. A potentiometer is provided having first and second mutually complementarily variable resistance portions divided by a slidable tap having an inherent contact resistance connected to ground. The first and second portions of the potentiometer are coupled in the equalizing network in series with the impedance element. An inversion type current mirror curcuit causes an input alternating current to flow as a function of the input voltage in the contact resistance of the potentiometer through the first resistance portion and causes an output alternating current of equal amplitude to, but opposite phase to, the input alternating current to flow in the contact resistance through the second resistance portion and impedance element to the output terminal.
