摘要 |
A microwave plasma processing apparatus (100) of a slot antenna type includes a plane antenna plate (31) constituting a flat waveguide and a cover (34) of a conductive member. The cover (34) is provided with a stub (43) as a second waveguide for adjusting electric field-distribution in the flat waveguide. The stub (43) is provided in the cover (34) of the conductive member. In plan view, the stub (43) is arranged to overlap slots (32) constituting a slot pair arranged at the outermost circumference of the plane antenna plate (31). By appropriately arranging the stub, it is possible to control electric field-distribution in the flat waveguide thereby to generate a uniform plasma.
