Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a ZnO thin film deposited substrate and a thin film deposition system exhibiting a specific resistance sufficiently reduced to be useful for transparent electrodes of a liquid crystal display, characterized in that Zn material evaporated and oxidized by microwave oxygen plasma to the compound ZnO which is, in turn, deposited on the substrate and thereby the thin film is formed, and the ZnO thin film deposited on the substrate is exposed to microwave hydrogen plasma so as to reduce a specific resistance of the ZnO thin film and thereby to modify this ZnO thin film to electrically conductive thin film.
Abstract: Here is disclosed a plasma generator using microwave wherein a plasma generating chamber is provided with a plurality of wave guide tubes extending in parallel one to another at regular intervals, each of the wave guide tubes being formed with a plurality of coupling ports arranged intermittently in an axial direction of the wave guide tube and dimensioned so that coupling coefficient thereof become gradually higher toward a distal end of the wave guide tube, and a plurality of dielectric windows provided through the plasma generating chamber in association with the respective coupling ports so that microwave electric power radiated through the coupling ports into the plasma generating chamber may be uniformized and thereby plasma of a large area may be generated with high and uniform density.
