Embodiment
For making those skilled in the art understand technical scheme of the present invention better, below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, Plasma pre-cleaning device provided by the invention is described in detail.
Fig. 3 is the structure diagram of Plasma pre-cleaning device provided by the invention.Refer to Fig. 3, Plasma pre-cleaning device comprises reaction chamber, and reaction chamber comprises cavity 11, medium bucket 12 and top cover 13.Wherein, medium bucket 12 is arranged on the top of cavity 11, and the profile of its projection is in the horizontal plane identical with the profile of cavity 11 projection in the horizontal plane, and top cover 13 is arranged on the top of medium bucket 12.Be provided with chuck 14 in the bottom of cavity 11, chuck 14 is connected with the first radio-frequency power supply 15 by the first matching box (not shown).Can make chuck 14 forms rf bias by the first radio-frequency power supply 15, thus attraction plasma bombardment is placed on the workpiece to be machined on chuck 14, and then reaches the object of cleaning workpiece to be machined.
Medium bucket 12 adopts pottery or quartz material to make.Be provided with Faraday shield 16 in the outside of medium bucket 12, Faraday shield 16 adopts electro-conductive material, as copper or aluminium are made.Be wound with coil 17 in the outer felt of Faraday shield 16, coil 17 is connected with the second radio-frequency power supply 18 by the second matching box (not shown).Second radio-frequency power supply 18 provides radio frequency power to coil 17, thus the gas in reaction chamber is excited into highdensity plasma body.
In the present embodiment, Faraday shield 16 is arranged on the outside of medium bucket 12, it not only can reduce between the plasma body in coil 17 and reaction chamber capacitive coupling occurs, thus the bombardment of plasma body to medium bucket 12 can be reduced, thus extend the work-ing life of medium bucket 12, can reduce because medium bucket 12 is corroded and cause reaction chamber internal contamination simultaneously, and then improving the processing quality of Plasma pre-cleaning device.
Fig. 4 is the vertical view of Faraday shield provided by the invention.Fig. 5 is the stereographic map of Faraday shield provided by the invention.See also Fig. 3, Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, Faraday shield comprises two Faraday shield unit 16a, 16b, two Faraday shield unit 16a, 16b do not contact, that is, Faraday shield 16 is by two discontiguous Faraday shield unit 16a, 16b arranging along described medium bucket periphery direction.The distance of Faraday shield unit 16a and Faraday shield unit 16b on medium bucket (or Faraday shield unit) periphery direction is 3 ~ 10mm.The Faraday shield of this structure not only can make coil 17 can with inductive coupled mode activated plasma, the generation of Faraday shield circulation or eddy current can be reduced, even avoid simultaneously, thus the plasma density in raising reaction chamber, and then improve the energy coupling efficiency of the radio frequency power acted on coil 17.
When the material that the medium layer on workpiece to be machined surface adopts specific inductivity low, in order to avoid pre-cleaning processes is to the damage on workpiece to be machined surface, usually need the radio frequency power that reduction by first radio-frequency power supply 15 provides, this obviously can reduce prewashed efficiency.The Faraday shield adopting the present embodiment to provide can improve prewashed efficiency, thus guarantees that surface adopts the process velocity of the workpiece to be machined of low-k.
