Research Abstract

In the manufacturing process of semiconductors, plasma processing is an essential technology, and the plasma used in the process is required to be of large diameter, low temperature, and high uniformity. This research focuses on the microwave-excited plasma that meets these needs, and the research target is a spatial profile control. Two novel techniques are introduced to control the uniformity; one is a segmented slot antenna that can change distribution of the radiated field during operation, and the other is a hyper simulation that can predict microwave power distribution necessary for a desired radial density profile. The control system including these techniques is constructed and found to be effective for the profile control of produced plasmas.
