摘要
The charge build-up in an electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) etcher has been studied experimentally and theoretically. The experimental results show that the charge build-up profiles of the wafer are convex and positive, and are detected only when the RF bias exists. We have derived a simplified equivalent circuit model for the wafer in an ECR etcher. The charge build-up profile predicted with the simplified equivalent circuit model shows a good agreement with the experimental results. It is concluded that the variation of plasma potential caused by the radial RF current across the magnetic field results in the charge build-up. © 1990 IOP Publishing Ltd.
