Abstract

The length (L) of a slot ( 26 ) increases monotonously from the central portion (A) of an antenna surface ( 28 ) in the radial direction, and reaches the maximal value at the first intermediate portion (C). The maximal value is maintained from the first intermediate portion (C) until the peripheral portion (B). When compared to a case wherein the length of the slot is increased monotonously from the central portion of the antenna surface ( 28 ) until its peripheral portion, the power radiated from a slot antenna can increase. Accordingly, the power which is not radiated from the slot antenna but remains in it decreases, so that the reflected power from the slot antenna decreases.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a plasma processing apparatus and a plasma generating method, and more particularly, to a plasma processing apparatus and a plasma generating method for generating plasma by supplying an electromagnetic field into a processing container using a slot antenna. Background technique [0002] In the manufacturing process of semiconductor devices or flat panel displays, plasma processing equipment is often used to perform processes such as formation of oxide films, crystal growth of semiconductor layers, etching and ashing. Among plasma processing apparatuses, a high-frequency plasma processing apparatus is effective, which supplies a high-frequency electromagnetic field into a processing container and ionizes and separates gas in the processing container by the effect of the electromagnetic field, thereby generating plasma. Since high-frequency plasma processing equipment can generate low-pressure, high-density plasma, it ca...
