Patent number: 11967484Abstract: A pulse generator is disclosed. The pulse generator includes a DC source; a plurality of switches, a transformer; and a pulsing output. The pulse generator can be coupled with a plasma chamber. The pulsing output outputs high voltage pulses having a peak-to-peak voltage greater than 1 kV and a voltage portion between consecutive high voltage bipolar pulses that has a negative slope that substantially offsets the voltage reduction on a wafer within a plasma chamber due to an ion current. The resulting voltage at the wafer may be substantially flat between consecutive pulses.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2021Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Eagle Harbor Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Christopher Bowman, Connor Liston, Kenneth Miller, Timothy Ziemba
