Abstract

The invention provides an impedance matching method. The method comprises the following steps of: in a process time slot, reading the output value of a sensor in a state that a radio frequency power source output power is zero, wherein the output value serves as the static reference value of a sensor output model in the subsequent process; in the process, acquiring the practical load impedance according to the sensor output model, the static reference value and the sensor output, and adjusting an adjustable impedance element in a matcher so as to realize the impedance matching in plasma processing equipment; and repeating the steps until the whole process is finished. The invention also provides the plasma processing equipment. The impedance matching method and the plasma processing equipment can stably, effectively and accurately realize the impedance matching in the plasma processing equipment, so that the reflection power on a radio-frequency transmission line is relatively low andthen the radio frequency power source output power is applied to a plasma technical chamber more effectively.
