Abstract:
A substrate processing apparatus includes an electrostatic chuck which is made up of a base, a dielectric plate on the base, a chuck electrode in the dielectric plate, and a first heater section in the dielectric plate between the chuck electrode and the base. The first heater section includes first heaters that are separated from each other in a first direction, and respective first upper plate electrodes disposed between the first heaters and the base. The first upper plate electrodes are separated from each other in the first direction and respectively connected to the first heaters.
Abstract:
Provided are a substrate manufacturing method and a substrate manufacturing apparatus used therefor. The substrate manufacturing method includes providing a substrate having a mask film into a chamber. A plasma reaction is induced in the chamber. A first gas and a second gas are alternately provided into the chamber to etch the substrate. Each of the first and second gases is provided into the chamber at a stabilized feed pressure including a pressure fluctuation profile comprising a square wave shape.
Abstract:
An impedance measurement jig may include a first contact plate, a second contact plate, a cover plate, a plug, and an analyzer. The first contact plate may make electrical contact with an ESC in a substrate-processing apparatus. The second contact plate may make electrical contact with a focus ring configured to surround the ESC. The cover plate may be configured to cover an upper surface of the substrate-processing apparatus. The plug may be installed at the cover plate to selectively make contact with the first contact plate or the second contact plate. The analyzer may individually apply a power to the first contact plate and the second contact plate through the plug to measure an impedance of the ESC and an impedance of the focus ring. Thus, the impedances of the ESC and the focus ring may be individually measured to inspect the ESC and/or the focus ring.
Abstract:
A plasma sensor module may include an upper substrate, a lower substrate, at least one probe and a printed circuit board (PCB). The upper substrate may be configured to be exposed to plasma. The lower substrate may contact a lower surface of the upper substrate. The lower substrate may have a thickness that is thicker than a thickness of the upper substrate. The probe may be in the lower substrate. The PCB may be in the lower substrate. The PCB may be configured to apply an alternating current to the probe to detect a density of the plasma. Thus, the structural strength of the plasma sensor module may have improved structural strength.
