摘要:
A plasma film deposition apparatus (plasma processing apparatus) includes a second antenna 11b disposed around an antenna 11a and located outwardly of a ceiling surface. The second antenna 11b is supplied with an electric current flowing in a direction opposite to the direction of an electric current supplied to the antenna 11a by a power supply. Lines of magnetic force F2, heading in a direction opposite to the direction of lines of magnetic force F1 appearing at the site of the antenna 11a, are thereby generated at the site of the second antenna 11b. Thus, the magnetic flux density in the direction of the wall surface is lowered, even when a uniform plasma is generated over a wide range within a tubular container 2.

Provided are a plasma processing apparatus and a plasma processing method, by which plasma damage is reduced during processing. At the time of performing desired plasma processing to a substrate (5), a process chamber (2) is supplied with an inert gas for carrying in and out the substrate (5), pressure fluctuation in the process chamber (2) is adjusted to be within a prescribed range, and plasma (20) of the inert gas supplied in the process chamber (2) is generated. The density of the plasma (20) in the transfer area of the substrate (5) is reduced by controlling plasma power to be in a prescribed range, and the substrate (5) is carried in and out to and from a supporting table (4).

An object is to provide a plasma film forming apparatus capable of reducing particles even in the case in which a film is formed by applying a bias to a substrate. In the plasma film forming apparatus in which a bias is applied to a substrate (5) placed on a supporting table (4) in a chamber and forming a thin film on the substrate (5) by using plasma, the supporting table (4) has a columnar supporting table main body (4b) having a contact surface in contact with the substrate (5), the contact surface (4a) having an outer diameter (c) smaller than an outer diameter (W) of the substrate (5); and a flange portion (4c) extended in an outer circumferential direction from a side surface (4d) of the supporting table main body (4b); wherein a predetermined first gap (G1) is formed between the flange portion (4c) and a rear surface of the outer circumference of the substrate (5).

In order to provide a plasma processing method and a plasma processing system which is capable of embedding a SiN film can be performed by applying bias power, in a plasma processing method for depositing a silicon nitride film on a substrate 21, which is a target for plasma processing, by using plasma of a raw material gas containing silicon and hydrogen and of a gas containing nitrogen, the bias power to inject ions into the substrate 21 is set equal to or higher than a threshold to increase a Si—H bonding amount, thereby reducing compression stress.
