The history of microwave plasma research dates back roughly four and fifty years of the last century. Originally, massachusetts found that microwave coaxial structures were capable of generating plasma, but the inner conductor was susceptible to corrosion and did not have a long service life due to the small volume of the plasma. Since then, many laboratories and companies in colleges and universities have been improving microwave plasma devices, and the volume of the cavity is larger, the intensity is higher, and the experiment requirements are lower. However, the volume of gas which can be acted by the cavity of the existing model is not large, the gas quantity which can be processed is not enough, and the energy utilization rate is not high.
