METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING CENTER-TO-EDGE DISTRIBUTION OF SPECIES WITHIN A PLASMA

摘要

A method and system for controlling the center-to-edge distribution of a species within a plasma is provided. In one embodiment, the invention provides a method for plasma processing, comprising determining plasma processing center-to-edge profile requirements of a substrate, and selecting a ratio of two inert gases to be provided to a plasma processing chamber in response to the plasma processing center to edge profile requirements.
