发明名称 RF-biased capacitively-coupled electrostatic (RFB-CCE) probe arrangement for characterizing a film in a plasma processing chamber
摘要 A method for characterizing deposited film on a substrate within a processing chamber during processing is provided. The method includes determining voltage-current characteristic for a probe head when measuring capacitor is set at a first capacitance value. The method also includes applying RF train to the probe head when measuring capacitor is set at a capacitance value greater than first capacitance value. The method further includes providing an initial resistance value and an initial capacitance value for the deposited film. The method yet also includes employing initial resistance value, initial capacitance value, and voltage-current characteristic to generate simulated voltage-time curve. The method yet further includes determining measured voltage-time curve, which represents potential drop across the deposited film for one RF train. The method more over includes comparing the two curves. If the difference is less than predefined threshold, employ initial resistance value and initial capacitance for characterizing the deposited film.
