| 摘要 |
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for achieving conformal step coverage of one or more materials on a substrate using sputtered ionized material. In one embodiment, a chamber having one or more current return plates, a support member, an electromagnetic field generator and a support member is provided. The target provides a source of material to be sputtered by a plasma and then ionized by an inductive coil, thereby producing electrons and ions. During processing, a bias is applied to the support member by an RF power source. The return plates are selectively energized to provide a return path for the RF currents, thereby affecting the orientation of an electric field in the chamber.
