Abstract: The present invention presents an improved bellows shield for a plasma processing system, wherein the design and fabrication of the bellows shield coupled to a substrate holder electrode advantageously provides protection of a bellows with substantially minimal erosion of the bellows shield.

Abstract: The present invention presents an improved upper electrode for a plasma processing system, wherein the design and fabrication of an electrode plate coupled to an upper assembly advantageously provides gas injection of a process gas with substantially minimal erosion of the electrode plate.

Abstract: The present invention presents an improved optical window deposition shield an improved optical window deposition shield for optical access to a process space in a plasma processing system through a deposition shield, wherein the design and fabrication of the optical window deposition shield advantageously provides an optically clean access to the processing plasma in the process space while sustaining substantially minimal erosion of the optical window deposition shield.

Abstract: The present invention presents an improved deposition shield for surrounding a process space in a plasma processing system, wherein the design and fabrication of the deposition shield advantageously provides for a clean processing plasma in the process space with substantially minimal erosion of the deposition shield.

Abstract: The present invention presents an improved baffle plate for a plasma processing system, wherein the design and fabrication of the baffle plate advantageously provides for a uniform processing plasma in the process space with substantially minimal erosion of the baffle plate.

Abstract: There is provided a method of cleaning completely a deposit on the surface of the member to be cleaned, of a plasma processing apparatus without any damage of the coating which has been formed anodized coating or sprayed coating on the surface of the member to cleaned. The method of cleaning comprises a chemical cleaning step of dipping in an organic solvent (e.g. acetone) (a); and then a step blowing pressurized air so as to remove the deposit which has been peeled from a buffer plate (14) treated chemically (b); and then, of removing physically the deposit remained at the edges of the buffer plate (14) by blasting by using a CO2blast apparatus (105), and f steps of dipping the buffer plate (14) in pure water (104), and imparting supersonic vibration to remove the deposit remaining on a buffer plate (14).

Abstract: It is to propose an internal member for a plasma treating vessel having excellent resistances to chemical corrosion and plasma erosion under an environment containing a halogen gas and an advantageous method of producing the same, which is a member formed by covering a surface of a substrate with a multilayer composite layer consisting of a metal coating formed as an undercoat, Al2O3 film formed on the undercoat as a middle layer and Y2O3 sprayed coating formed on the middle layer as a top coat.
