Definitions
- Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to an apparatus capable of generating uniform plasma across and beyond the peripheral edge of a substrate.
- a substrate is placed on a substrate support in a process chamber and exposed to an energized gas to deposit or etch material on the substrate.
- the support may comprise an electrostatic chuck with at least one electrode that may be electrically charged to electrostatically hold the substrate on the support.
- the electrode may also be electrically biased, for example with high frequency electrical power, such as radio frequency (RF) power, to energize process gas provided in the chamber to process the substrate.
- RF radio frequency
- a gas distribution device introduces process gas into the chamber.
- the gas is energized into plasma by applying an RF voltage to an electrode, such as a cathode, within a substrate support, such as an electrostatic chuck, and by electrically grounding an anode to form a capacitive field in the process chamber.
- a substrate may be electrically biased with respect to the cathode, such as by applying a direct current to the cathode, and an electrostatic force generated to attract and hold the substrate on the electrostatic chuck.
- the substrate is processed by the plasma generated within the process chamber.
- the substrate support surface such as the surface of the electrostatic chuck
- the plasma and ion bombardment may damage portions of the electrostatic chuck.
- a process kit is positioned around the electrostatic chuck within the processing chamber.
- the process kit typically includes an annular ring that covers the upper portion of the electrostatic chuck that is exposed to the plasma.
