ICP SOURCE DESIGN FOR PLASMA UNIFORMITY AND EFFICIENCY ENHANCEMENT

摘要

An ICP A plasma reactor having an enclosure wherein at least part of the ceiling forms a dielectric window. A substrate support is positioned within the enclosure below the dielectric window. An RF power applicator is positioned above the dielectric window to radiate RF power through the dielectric window and into the enclosure. A plurality of gas injectors are distributed uniformly above the substrate support to supply processing gas into the enclosure. A circular baffle is situated inside the enclosure and positioned above the substrate support but below the plurality of gas injectors so as to redirect the flow of the processing gas.
