Method and device for generating uniform high-frequency plasma over large surface area used for plasma chemical vapor deposition apparatus

摘要

A plasma generation device for generating plasma uniformly over a large surface area by very high frequency (VHF), which is installed in a plasma chemical vapor deposition apparatus. A first and a second power supply section are installed on both ends of the discharge electrode installed in a plasma chemical vapor deposition apparatus, and are supplied with alternate cycles: the first cycle wherein the first and second power supply sections receive high frequency waves at the same frequency, and a second cycle wherein different high frequency waves are received. In this manner, the state of plasma generation may be varied in each cycle, and when averaged over time, it makes possible uniform plasma generation over a large surface area.
