Embodiment Construction

[0049] A high voltage potential (3 kv or more) is applied in the dielectric discharge tube at low pressure (less than a few tens of Torr without fluid effects) in an antenna arranged around the dielectric discharge tube. In this case, plasma is generated in the dielectric discharge tube. The surface of the dielectric discharge tube is heated by ion collisions. Therefore, the dielectric discharge tube is heated to a temperature above 1000°C. This can lead to changes in the surface properties of the dielectric discharge tube or perforation of the dielectric discharge tube.

[0050] The high potential applied to the antenna is affected by the antenna's inductance, frequency and current. Under high power conditions, a high potential must be applied to the antenna. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the high potential of the antenna.

[0051] According to some embodiments of the inventive concept, in the case of applying a high power of several kW or more, a method of reducin...

The first inductive coil structure includes: an inductive coil connected in series with each other and placed in different layers, and the inductive coil has at least one turn in each layer; and an auxiliary capacitor, the auxiliary capacitor are respectively arranged between adjacent ones of the induction coils to distribute the voltage applied to the induction coils.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an inductively-coupled plasma (ICP: inductively-coupled plasma) generating system, and in particular, to an ICP generating system including a capacitor inserted between a plurality of antennas and having a voltage dividing structure. Background technique [0002] Plasmas are used in processes to etch substrates (eg, semiconductor wafers) or to deposit layers on substrates. Furthermore, plasmas are used for the synthesis of new materials, surface treatment and environmental purification. In addition, atmospheric pressure plasma is used in plasma scrubbers, cleaning, sterilization and skin care. [0003] To generate a conventional inductively coupled plasma (ICP), a dielectric discharge tube wound by an induction coil is used. However, the conventional inductive coil structure has low discharge stability and low plasma density. [0004] The present invention provides a novel inductive coil structure configured to stabl...
