Window for allowing end point of etching process to be detected and etching device comprising the same

摘要

An end point detection window prevents process failures in a plasma etching device. The end point detection window has a body of aluminum or an aluminum alloy through which a hole extends to provide a path along which light generated during the etching process can pass from the process chamber, and a capping section coupled to a light outlet of the body. The capping section is of quartz for allowing the light passing through the hole in the body to be transmitted out of the process chamber.
