Abstract

See full text

A semiconductor plasma processing apparatus includes a vacuum chamber in which semiconductor substrates are processed, a process gas source in fluid communication with the vacuum chamber for supplying a process gas into the vacuum chamber, and an RF energy source adapted to energize the process gas into the plasma state in the vacuum chamber. The apparatus can also include a chamber wall wherein the chamber wall includes a means for supplying a plasma compatible liquid to a plasma exposed surface thereof wherein the plasma compatible liquid flows over the plasma exposed surface thereby forming a flowing protective liquid layer thereon. A liquid supply delivers the plasma compatible liquid to the chamber wall.
