Proposed are a method and an apparatus for determining a cable length for plasma processing equipment. More particularly, proposed is a method of determining a length of a power supply cable for plasma processing equipment that performs plasma processing through power supply at radio frequencies (RF) of several tens of MHz or more.

Method and apparatus for determining cable length for plasma processing equipment

Disclosed is an apparatus for treating a substrate. The apparatus includes: an RF power supply; a process chamber which performs plasma processing by using power applied from the RF power supply; and an impedance matching unit which is disposed between the RF power supply and the process chamber and performs matching, in which the RF power supply includes a first sensor measuring impedance in a direction of the process chamber and the impedance matching unit, and the impedance matching unit performs impedance matching by reflecting impedance measured in the RF power supply through the first sensor.

Substrate treating apparatus and impedance matching method

A plasma processing apparatus includes a processing chamber providing space for plasma generation, a chuck member provided in the processing chamber and supporting a substrate, at least two RF power sources providing RF power of different frequencies to the chuck member, a ring member provided to surround the chuck member, an edge electrode arranged in the ring member to be electrically insulated from the chuck member, and a variable impedance circuit being electrically connected to the edge electrode. The variable impedance circuit includes an adjustable impedance configured to control a potential of the edge electrode and a high-frequency stop circuit configured to block high-frequency power from being transmitted to the adjustable impedance.
