Summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of inductance coupled plasma device that can effectively regulate the inhomogeneity inductance-coupled coil of etch rate and use this coil.
The objective of the invention is to solve by the following technical programs:
Inductance-coupled coil of the present invention comprises interior winding, outer winding, it is characterized in that, the relative position between described interior winding and the outer winding can be regulated.
The inductance coupled plasma device of the above-mentioned inductance-coupled coil of application of the present invention, comprise reative cell, reative cell top is provided with dielectric window, the top of described dielectric window is provided with described inductance-coupled coil, and the interior winding of described inductance-coupled coil and the relative position between the outer winding can be regulated.
As seen from the above technical solution provided by the invention, inductance-coupled coil of the present invention and use the inductance coupled plasma device of this coil, because the relative position between interior winding and the outer winding can be regulated, the density that can come the indoor plasma of conditioned reaction by the relative position between winding in regulating and the outer winding, plasma is evenly distributed above the wafer of reative cell, can effectively regulate the uniformity of etch rate, improve the quality of etched wafer.Be mainly used in the semiconductor wafer process equipment.
