  • Patent number: 8223329
    Abstract: An endpoint detection device, a plasma reactor with the endpoint detection device, and an endpoint detection method are provided. The endpoint detection device includes an OES data operation unit, a data selector, a product generator, an SVM, and an endpoint determiner. The OES data operation unit processes reference OES data by normalization and PCA. The data selector selects part of the linear reference loading vectors and selects part of the selected linear reference loading vectors. The product generator outputs at least one reference product value. The SVM performs regression and outputs a prediction product value. The endpoint determiner detects a process wafer etch or deposition endpoint and outputs a detection signal.

  • Patent number: 8123903
    Abstract: A plasma reactor includes a chamber in which a wafer is treated by a plasma reaction, the chamber being provided at an upper portion with a cylindrical dielectric window, a multiple antenna structure disposed on upper and lower portions of the dielectric window to generate RF magnetic field and apply the RF magnetic field inside the chamber through the dielectric window, thereby generating RF electric field, and an RF electric power supply unit for allowing for a time variation of the magnetic field of the multiple antenna structure.

  • Publication number: 20080271762
    Abstract: An etching gas control system is provided. The system includes a gas injector, a gas supply pipe, a Flow Ratio Controller (FRC), and a gas supply unit. The gas injector is installed in a chamber and supplies gas inside the chamber. The gas injector includes a top injector installed at a top of the chamber and a side injector installed at a side of the chamber. The gas supply pipe connects and supplies gas to the gas injector. The FRC connects to the gas supply pipe and controls supply of gas. The gas supply unit supplies gas to the FRC.

  • Publication number: 20070221331
    Abstract: Provided is a hybrid plasma reactor. The hybrid plasma reactor includes an ICP (Inductively Coupled Plasma) source unit and a bias RF (Radio Frequency) power supply unit. The ICP source unit includes a chamber, an antenna coil unit, and a source power supply unit. The chamber includes a chamber body whose top is opened and a dielectric window covering the opened top of the chamber body. The antenna coil unit is disposed outside of the dielectric window. The source power supply unit supplies a source power to the antenna coil unit. The bias RF power supply unit supplies a bias RF power to a cathode. The cathode is installed within the chamber and mounts a target wafer on its top.
