Patent ID: 11830747

Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a plasma reactor having a function of tuning low frequency RF power distribution, comprising: a reaction chamber in which an electrically conductive base is provided, the electrically conductive base being connected to a low frequency RF source via a first match, an electrostatic chuck being provided on the electrically conductive base, an upper surface of the electrostatic chuck being configured for fixing a to-be-processed substrate, an outer sidewall of the electrically conductive base being coated with at least one layer of plasma corrosion-resistance dielectric layer, a coupling ring made of a dielectric material surrounding an outer perimeter of the base, a focus ring being disposed above the coupling ring, the focus ring being arranged surround the electrostatic chuck and be exposed to a plasma during a plasma processing procedure; the plasma reactor further comprising an annular electrode that is disposed above the coupling ring but below the focus ring; a wire, a first end of which is electrically connected to the base, and a second end of which is connected to the annular electrode, a variable capacitance being serially connected to the wire.
