Abstract

The invention discloses a lifting ejector pin assembly, an electrostatic chuck provided with the lifting ejector pin assembly and a processing device where the electrostatic chuck is located. The lifting ejector pin assembly comprises a lifting ejector pin. The channel is used for accommodating the lifting thimble; the channel for accommodating the lifting thimble is connected with a pressure control device; a sealing ring is arranged at one end, close to the substrate, of the channel for accommodating the lifting thimble; the upper surface of the sealing ring is in contact with the back surface of the substrate in the technological process, so that gas on the back surface of the substrate is prevented from entering the channel for accommodating the lifting ejector pin, and the pressure control device can independently control the pressure in the channel for accommodating the lifting ejector pin.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of plasma etching, in particular to the technical field of plasma processing for preventing arc generation in an electrostatic chuck under high radio frequency power. Background technique [0002] Micromachining of semiconductor substrates or substrates is a well-known technique that can be used to fabricate, for example, semiconductors, flat panel displays, light emitting diodes (LEDs), solar cells, and the like. An important step in micromachining manufacturing is the plasma treatment process step, which is carried out inside a reaction chamber into which process gases are fed. A radio frequency source is inductively and / or capacitively coupled to the interior of the reaction chamber to energize the process gas to form and maintain a plasma. Inside the reaction chamber, the exposed substrate is supported by an electrostatic chuck and fixed in a fixed position by a certain clamping force to ensure the safe...
