PLASMA CHAMBER HAVING SWITCHABLE BIAS POWER AND A SWITCHABLE FREQUENCY RF MATCH NETWORK THEREFOR

摘要

A plasma chamber having a switchable bias frequency superimposed onto plasma source frequency and applied to the cathode. A power supplier capable of generating multiple RF bias frequencies is coupled into a match network through a switch. The match network couples one of the bias frequencies to the cathode. Another match network applied a source RF power to the cathode. One parallel connection of variable shunt capacitor and fixed capacitor are provided between ground and input of the switch and another is connected between ground and the input of the source RF match network.
