Abstract

See full text

Techniques herein include a method for generating uniform plasma within an inductively-coupled plasma reactor. Techniques herein include providing a termination capacitor that is dynamically adjustable to adjust a termination capacitor value to provide a uniform E-field distribution in the reactor via a time-averaged uniformity. During a given plasma processing operation, a termination capacitor can be continuously changed to create various rotational cycles so that a given substrate received uniform treatment.
