As shown in Figure 1, apparatus for processing plasma 1 comprises two plate-shaped electrodes 10 and 20 that be arranged in parallel and make that it faces with each other.Substrate S is installed on the bottom electrode 20.Therefore, bottom electrode 20 can be called as " substrate holder ".
In addition, the Promotion From Within pin 30 and the outside lifting arm (not shown) that are used to help substrate S is transported into and goes out apparatus for processing plasma 1 in apparatus for processing plasma 1, are provided, as shown in Figure 1.Promotion From Within pin 30 is set in the through hole 22 that the edge by bottom electrode 20 forms, and in through hole 22 vertical moving.
Outside lifting arm provides in the outside of bottom electrode 20.Be that outside lifting arm is set between the sidewall of the sidewall of bottom electrode 20 and apparatus for processing plasma 1 in the formed space, and vertical moving.
Being used for that internal gas is discharged to outside deliverying unit 40 forms by apparatus for processing plasma.Deliverying unit 40 removes gas in the apparatus for processing plasma 1 by suction, and uses the pump (not shown) that provides in the outside of apparatus for processing plasma 1 to keep the vacuum state of apparatus for processing plasma 1.
Top electrode 10 is set at the position in the face of bottom electrode 20.Top electrode 10 is as the process gas feeding unit, is used for process gas is fed to space and electrode between upper and lower electrode 10 and 20.Correspondingly, as shown in Figure 1, shower head 12 is connected to the bottom of top electrode 10.Shower head 12 has a plurality of process gas diffusion holes 14 with thin diameter.Shower head 12 is fed to space between upper and lower electrode 10 and 20 equably with process gas.The process gas that is fed to the space between upper and lower electrode 10 and 20 is transformed into plasma by the high frequency power that is applied to upper and lower electrode 10 and 20, and the surface of described plasma treatment substrate S.
The coolant channel 16 that is used for making cold-producing medium pass through its circulation forms at top electrode 10.Coolant channel 16 passes through top electrode 10 in the horizontal direction, and is arranged to spread all over the All Ranges of top electrode 10 equably.One end of coolant channel 16 is connected to the cold-producing medium supply pipe 17 with exterior, and the other end of coolant channel 16 is connected to cold-producing medium collecting pipe 18.Correspondingly, coolant channel 16 receives new cold-producing medium and useless cold-producing medium is turned back to cold-producing medium collecting pipe 18 from cold-producing medium supply pipe 17, thereby makes refrigerant cycle.Coolant channel 16 is used for preventing being subjected to the influence that the temperature of the shower head 12 that causes owing to plasma generation raises by apparatus for processing plasma 1 performed technology.
Because conventional apparatus for processing plasma 1 has the coolant channel 16 that does not directly form but form in top electrode 10 in shower head 12, make shower head 12 be cooled indirectly, is not easy to control the temperature of shower head 12.When the temperature of shower head 12 difficulty owing to the temperature of control shower head 12 raises, the high frequency power efficiency of transmission reduces also influences etch-rate or etch uniformity, thereby has damaged the reproducibility of plasma treatment.

Now, with preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the annexed drawings.
<the first embodiment 〉
As shown in Figure 2, apparatus for processing plasma 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention comprises top electrode 110, bottom electrode 120, shower head 150, Promotion From Within pin 130, outside lifting arm 140, process gas feeding unit (not shown) and deliverying unit (not shown), and these are installed in the chamber that is maintained at vacuum state.Here, the 26S Proteasome Structure and Function and the conventional apparatus for processing plasma of the bottom electrode 120 of the apparatus for processing plasma 100 of this embodiment, Promotion From Within pin 130, outside lifting arm 140, process gas feeding unit and deliverying unit are basic identical, and it is described in detail and will therefore omit, because this is considered to unnecessary.
The top electrode 110 of the apparatus for processing plasma 100 of this embodiment is different with conventional apparatus for processing plasma with the 26S Proteasome Structure and Function of shower head 150, and its detailed description is carried out in detail with following.
Different with the top electrode 10 of conventional apparatus for processing plasma 1, the top electrode 110 of the apparatus for processing plasma 100 of this embodiment does not have by its formed coolant channel.Correspondingly, top electrode 110 has simple structure and makes easily.
Shower head 150 is connected to the lower part of top electrode 110, and is used for making the process gas from the outside supply evenly to be diffused into the chamber.In this embodiment, coolant channel 152 evenly forms in the horizontal direction, spreads all over the All Ranges of shower head 150.Because the shower head 150 of the apparatus for processing plasma 100 of this embodiment directly cools off by coolant channel 152, is easy to control the temperature of shower head 150.In order directly to form coolant channel 152 by shower head 150, shower head 150 has the thickness of about 17mm, and the shower head 12 of conventional apparatus for processing plasma 1 has the thickness of about 10mm.
The two ends of coolant channel 152 all are connected to refrigerant cycle unit 160, so that refrigerant cycle unit 160 is fed to cold-producing medium coolant channel 152 and collects cold-producing medium so that refrigerant cycle from coolant channel 152 then.In this embodiment, refrigerant cycle unit 160 comprises cold-producing medium supply pipe 162, cold-producing medium collecting pipe 164 and refrigerant cycle pump 166.
Cold-producing medium supply pipe 162 is by the chamber, and an end of connection coolant channel 152.Cold-producing medium supply pipe 162 is used for the new refrigerant from the outside is fed to coolant channel 152.
