The present invention relates to a substrate surface treatment apparatus, and more particularly, to a substrate surface treatment apparatus capable of improving the surface treatment performance of a substrate by allowing the reaction gas plasma to be uniformly distributed.
In unit processes, such as dry etching, physical or chemical vapor deposition, photoresist cleaning, and other surface treatment, the method using plasma is widely used.
Examples of conventional substrate surface treatment apparatuses include those introduced in Korean Patent Application Nos. 1997-33864 and 2001-24902. For the generation of plasma, an ICP antenna may be used as an electrode, or a flat plate may be used as an electrode, such as CCP. .

2 illustrates a conventional substrate surface treatment apparatus in more detail. The plasma generating unit, which is positioned at the upper side and reacts with a plasma, is formed of an ICP type. The plasma generation unit may include an ICP type antenna connected to the first RF
In FIG. 2, the reaction gas is supplied to the
The
A buffer space is formed between the
In the conventional inductively coupled plasma generator, that is, the ICP type plasma generator, a single spiral antenna or a plurality of split-electrode antennas are used. A magnetic field is formed, and this temporally changing magnetic field forms an induction electric field inside the plasma generating space, and the induction electric field heats electrons to generate a plasma inductively coupled with the antenna. The electrons collide with the surrounding neutral gas particles to generate ions and radicals, which are used for plasma etching and deposition.
However, in the antenna of the spiral structure, each winding constituting the antenna is connected in series, so the amount of current flowing in each winding becomes constant. In this case, it is difficult to control the distribution of the induced electric field. It is difficult to prevent the density of the plasma from decreasing in the central part of the high density near the inner wall. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to keep the density of the plasma uniform. In addition, since each winding of the antenna is connected in series, the voltage drop caused by the antenna is increased, thereby increasing the influence of capacitive coupling with the plasma. Therefore, the power efficiency is lowered and it is also difficult to maintain the uniformity of the plasma.
Next, in the antenna having three split-pole structures connected to three high frequency power sources having different phases from each other, the plasma density is high at the position close to each split electrode, and the plasma density is lower at the center of the chamber. Difficulty in securing, and in particular, processing a large area of sample is significantly difficult. In addition, since power must be used independently of each other, the cost increases, and there is a problem in that an independent impedance matching circuit must be used for each divided electrode for impedance matching for efficient use of the power source.
In order to improve the uniformity of the plasma may be used to modify the antenna in the form of a dome, but it has a limitation that it is difficult to apply to the process such as oxide etching and the complicated structure.
The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a substrate surface treatment apparatus for securing the uniformity of the density of the reaction gas plasma in the plasma generating space.
Therefore, the density of the reaction gas and the source gas injected into the processing space in which the object to be processed is uniform may improve surface treatment performance.
The substrate surface treatment apparatus according to the present invention comprises: an inner antenna connected to a high frequency power supply unit and installed to be elevated in a plasma generation space; And a height adjusting unit for adjusting the height of the inner antenna according to the plasma density in the plasma generating space.
Preferably, a pressure sensor is provided in the plasma generating space, and the height adjusting unit adjusts the height of the inner antenna according to the pressure sensed by the pressure sensor.
The height adjusting unit may be configured to raise the inner antenna to the top when the pressure is lower than the reference value, and to lower to the bottom when the pressure is higher than the reference value.
The inner antenna is preferably formed in a flat plate shape. An electrode is embedded in a dielectric, and the high frequency power supply unit is connected to the electrode.
More preferably, a cooling unit for cooling the inner antenna is further provided.
In addition, the reaction gas shower head for dispersing the reaction gas widely in the plasma generating space is preferably further provided. The reaction gas shower head may be provided above the plasma generation space or be provided below the inner antenna.

Duplicate explanations will be omitted.

Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and a person having ordinary skill in the art may change the design or avoid the design without departing from the scope of the technical idea of the present invention. Will be in range.
As described above, according to the present invention, the reaction gas plasma may be uniformly distributed in the plasma generating space and injected into the processing space. In addition, since the source gas is uniformly injected into the processing space through the shower head, the reaction gas and the source gas are uniformly distributed.
As such, since the density of the reaction gas and the source gas injected into the processing space where the object is located is uniformly distributed, the surface treatment performance is improved.
