Abstract:
A plasma chamber is provided to increase conductance within the plasma chamber and to increase uniformity of the conductance. A radio frequency (RF) path for supplying power to the plasma chamber is symmetric with respect to a center axis of the plasma chamber. Moreover, pumps used to remove materials from the plasma chamber are located symmetric with respect to the center axis. The symmetric arrangements of the RF paths and the pumps facilitate an increase in conductance uniformity within the plasma chamber.

Claim (Index 12):
The system of  claim 11 , further comprising:\n a gas line extending via the transition flange opening and a hollow space of the RF rod to one or more inlets formed within the lower electrode to supply one or more gases to change a temperature of the lower electrode; or a fluid line extending via the transition flange opening and the hollow space of the RF rod to the lower electrode to supply a fluid to heat or cool the lower electrode; or a conductor extending via the transition flange opening and the hollow space of the RF rod to a thermocouple that is proximate to the lower electrode to measure a temperature of the lower electrode; or a lift rod extending via the transition flange opening and the hollow space of the RF rod to a lift pin embedded within the lower electrode, wherein the lift pin is configured to be moved in a vertical direction with respect to the plasma chamber to change a height of a wafer with respect to the lower electrode.
