Description
Radio Freauencv Plasma Generator
The present invention relates to plasma generators of the type in which electromagnetic energy is coupled inductively into a gaseous medium so as to excite the gaseous medium into a plasma state.
Inductively-coupled plasma generators are wellknown. See, for example GB 2 231 197; EP 0 217 361; EP 0 379 828; EP 0 689 226; US 4 948 458 and US 5 397 962. In all the above specifications, an object of the invention is to produce a plasma which is as uniform as possible over as large a diameter as practicable, in order to maximise the size of workpiece which can be exposed to the plasma. In some cases (GB 2 231 197; EP 0 379 878 and US 4 948 458) this is achieved by using an antenna in the form of a flat spiral, or involute. In others (EP 0 379 428 and EP 0 689 226) this is achieved by the use of a multiplicity of antennas.
The above types of plasma generators have their disadvantages, for example, in the case of those designs which use external antennas, insulating windows are required to enable the radio frequency electro-magnetic field to penetrate into the chamber in which the gaseous medium to be excited into the gaseous state is contained.
As most suitable materials are brittle, these windows can provide a source of mechanical weakness, particularly when large flat antennas are used. The flat antenna configuration although simple, has another disadvantage in that it produces an electromagnetic field whose intensity falls off rapidly in the plane perpendicular to the antenna. Consequently, the plasma density perpendicular to the plane of the antennas also falls off rapidly.
US Patent 5 309 063 shows an inductively coupled plasma generator including an antenna which has a flat spirally wound portion and a helical portion extending from the flat portion. The antenna is mounted in the centre of a cylindrical plasma generator chamber and projects into the chamber. The antenna is separated from the gaseous medium in the chamber by a cup-shaped window.
It is claimed that this antenna configuration gives a radial plasma density profile which is flatter than that produced by a flat spiral antenna. However, no indication is given of the plasma density profile in the axial direction.
According to the present invention there is provided an inductively-coupled radio frequency plasma generator including a chamber having means for admitting to the chamber a gaseous medium to be excited into a plasma state, and a source of r.f. power connected to an antenna mounted in an end wall of the chamber, wherein the antenna comprises an open-ended helical coil surrounded by a shroud made of an insulating material having a low radio-frequency absorption coefficient, and there is provided also a plurality of magnets so disposed about the periphery of the chamber so as to confine the plasma to the central region of the chamber.
Preferably there are included magnets disposed on the end wall of the chamber so as to prevent the charged species from the plasma impinging on the end wall of the chamber.
The invention will now be described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a schematic longitudinal section of one embodiment of the invention,
Figure 2 is a transverse cross-section of the embodiment of Figure 1 showing the disposition of plasma confining magnets in which the magnets are arranged in columns along the length of the source around the wall of a plasma chamber forming part of the embodiment of Figure 1, Figure 3 is a schematic longitudinal section of a second embodiment of the invention in which the magnets are arranged in rings or columns oriented perpendicular to the axis of the source,
Figure 4 is a schematic longitudinal section of a third embodiment of the invention, and
Figure 5 shows a plot of the normalised plasma current density across the plasma chamber of the embodiments of Figures 1 to 4.
Referring to Figure 1, a plasma processing apparatus embodying the invention consists of a cylindrical or rectangular chamber 1 which has an upper end wall 2 and is closed at the lower end by a base plate 3. The junction between the chamber 1 and the base plate 3 is sealed by an '0' ring 3'. Mounted in the base plate 3 is a support 4 for a workpiece 5 to be processed by charged species derived from a plasma produced in a gaseous medium contained in the chamber 1. Mounted axially in the end wall 2 of the chamber 3 is an helical antenna 6.
The antenna 6 is surrounded by a shroud 7 which is made of an insulating material which is transparent to radiofrequency radiation. Adjacent to the shroud 7 is an inlet 8 for the gaseous medium which is to be excited into the plasma state. An outlet 9 in the base plate 3 enables the chamber 1 to be evacuated by a vacuum system
(not shown) prior to the admission of the gaseous medium to the chamber 1 and for a suitable pressure to be maintained dynamically in the chamber 1 during its operation. Surrounding the cylindrical wall of the chamber 1 is a plurality of magnets 10 the poles of which are disposed as shown in Figure 2 or alternatively, as shown in Figure 3. Further magnets 11 are disposed on the outside of the end wall 2 of the chamber 1. The formation of the magnets 10 and 11 is to produce a magnetic field which both shapes and confines the plasma in the chamber. In particular, the magnets 11 prevent the drift of the plasma towards the end wall 2 of the chamber 1.
The antenna 6 is connected to an r.f. power generator.
The shroud 7 is closed by a membrane 12 so that in the event of the shroud 7 cracking, no air will enter the chamber 1. Electrical feed-throughs 13 enable the antenna 6 to be connected to an r.f. power generator 14 via a matching circuit 15. An electrical feed-through 16 in the base plate 3 enables the workpiece support 4 to be connected to a source 17 of ac bias potential via a capacitive coupling 18. The bias potential source 17 may operate at the same frequency as the power generator 14, but not necessarily so.
Suitable materials for the chamber 1 are aluminium alloys, stainless steels, copper or ceramics, the material in any particular case being chosen to be compatible with the gaseous medium used to generate the plasma and the process to be carried out on the workpieces.
In principle, the power generator 14 can operate at any frequency in the range 100 Khz - 100 MHz at kW power levels, although the standard industrial frequency of 13.5 MHz is preferred for reasons of convenience.
The antenna 6 preferably is made of copper and may be hollow to enable a coolant to be circulated through it and is plated with silver or gold to reduce its power loss. For use with a power generator 14 operating at the standard industrial frequency of 13.56 MHz, suitable dimensions for the antenna 6 are : 60 mm diameter; 50 mm long and 6.5 turns, giving an inductance of about 2 H.
The chamber 1 may have any transverse dimension greater than about twice that of the antenna 6, although the effiency of plasma production decreases as the diameter or equivalent transverse dimension of the chamber 1 is increased. Thus a higher power will be needed to maintain a given ion flux density. Eventually, more than one antenna 6, as in the larger prior art systems, will be required to distribute the r.f. power in the gaseous medium in the chamber. For the antenna size quoted, a suitable inside diameter for the chamber 1 is 350 mm, which permits a uniform plasma having a diameter in the range 200 to 250 mm to be generated. A suitable height for a chamber having a diameter of 350 mm is about 250 mm which allows sufficient drift space below the antenna 6 for a uniform plasma to be generated.
The power input to the workpiece 5 is arranged to be less than that supplied to the antenna 6 so that the antenna 6 determines the ion flux density and the workpiece power supply determines the ion energy via the bias potential generated at the workpiece support 4
(typically 30 V to 100 V). Although usually the source 17 of the bias potential is chosen to operate at the same frequency as the power supply to the antenna 6 it can be operated at other frequencies so as to reduce electrical interference between the power supplies, or to optimise the processing of the workpiece 4.
Figure 4 shows schematically, a second embodiment of the invention which is adapted to function as an ion gun or ion beam generator. Those components which are common to both embodiments have the same reference numerals.
The orientation of the magnets in this embodiment can be either longitudinal, as in Figure 1, or perpendicular to the axis, as in Figure 3.
Referring to Figure 4, the upper part of the plasma generator is the same as in the first embodiment of the invention, but the base plate 3 and its associated items are replaced by a series of ion extraction elements 31 which in use are maintained at a potential appropriate to the ions which it is desired to extract from the plasma within the chamber 1.
The gaseous medium is chosen according to the purpose to which the plasma generator is to be put. For example, in the case of the plasma processing apparatus of Figure 1 or Figure 3, if the apparatus is to be used for plasma etching, hydrogen, chlorine or chlorinated or fluorinated hydrocarbon compounds such as carbon tetrachloride, or carbon tetra fluoride or hydrogen bromide can be used.
In the case of the ion source of Figure 4, any appropriate gaseous molecule can be used. In addition to those described above for etching, the most usual gases are hydrogen, nitrogen, helium, neon or argon. For ion implantation into a workpiece consisting of a semi conductor substrate, boron hexahydride, boron tetrafluoride or arsenic trihydride can be used.
When operated at gas pressures in the range 10 to -2 -2 10 mb, ion fluxes in the range 1 to 100 mA cm are generated in both embodiments of the invention.
Figure 5 shows a normalised plot of the plasma current density against the normalised distance from the longitudinal axis of the plasma chamber 1. Comparison with Figure 4 of US patent specification 5,309,063 shows how highly effective is the configuration of the antenna and confirming magnetic field of the present invention.
