摘要: A plasma processing apparatus includes a processing chamber, a first electrode and a second electrode disposed to face each other, a high frequency power supply unit for applying a high frequency power to either the first electrode or the second electrode, a processing gas supply unit for supplying a processing gas to a processing space, and a main dielectric member provided at a substrate mounting portion on a main surface of the first electrode. A focus ring is attached to the first electrode to cover a peripheral portion of the main surface of the first electrode and a peripheral dielectric member is provided in a peripheral portion on the main surface of the first electrode so that an electrostatic capacitance per unit area applied between the first electrode and the focus ring is smaller than that applied between the first electrode and the substrate by the main dielectric member.

摘要: Systems and methods for controlling directionality of ion flux at an edge region within a plasma chamber are described. One of the systems includes a radio frequency (RF) generator that is configured to generate an RF signal, an impedance matching circuit coupled to the RF generator for receiving the RF signal to generate a modified RF signal, and a plasma chamber. The plasma chamber includes an edge ring and a coupling ring located below the edge ring and coupled to the first impedance matching circuit to receive the modified RF signal. The coupling ring includes an electrode that generates a capacitance between the electrode and the edge ring to control the directionality of the ion flux upon receiving the modified RF signal.

摘要: A heat transfer sheet affixing method where a focus ring is pressed by a pressing part to a heat transfer sheet placed on a heat transfer sheet mounting part of a plasma processing apparatus to affix the heat transfer sheet to the focus ring. The method includes reducing a pressure to place the heat transfer sheet in a reduced-pressure atmosphere, heating the heat transfer sheet, and pressing the focus ring by the pressing part to the heat transfer sheet. The reducing, the heating, and the pressing are performed concurrently at least for a predetermined period of time.
