APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR IMPROVING RELIABILITY OF RF GROUNDING

摘要

Embodiments of the present invention provide an RF conducting rod comprising a hollow portion. Particularly, the RF conducting rod comprises an elongated hollow body having a sidewall enclosing an inner volume, a first solid connector extending from a first end of the elongated hollow body, and a second solid connector extending from a second end of the elongated hollow body. Each of the elongated hollow body, the first solid connector and the second solid connector is formed from an electrically conductive material.
