The present invention generally relates to an inductively coupled plasma apparatus. When depositing utilizing a plasma generated from a showerhead, the plasma may not be evenly distributed to the edge of the substrate. By inductively coupling plasma to the chamber in an area corresponding to the chamber walls, the plasma distribution within the chamber may be evenly distributed and deposition upon the substrate may be substantially even. By vaporizing the processing gas prior to entry into the processing chamber, the plasma may also be even and thus contribute to an even deposition on the substrate. |
