The present invention comprises: a high-frequency power supply; an antenna group having a plurality of antennas connected to the high-frequency power supply; a plurality of reactance variable elements connected to the feeding sides and the grounding sides of the plurality of antennas; a current detection mechanism which detects the current flowing through the feeding sides and the ground sides of the plurality of antennas; a uniformity calculation unit which calculates the uniformity index value of the current flowing through the plurality of antennas, on the basis of the current value detected by the current detection mechanism; and a reactance changing unit which sequentially changes the reactance of the plurality of reactance variable elements such that the uniformity index value calculated by the uniformity calculation unit approaches a predetermined set value.

Plasma control system and plasma control program

A plasma control system comprises: a high frequency power source; a first antenna connected at one end to the high frequency power source; a second antenna connected at one end to another end of the first antenna; a first variable reactance element provided between the first antenna and the second antenna; a first drive part for the first variable reactance element; a second variable reactance element connected to another end of the second antenna; a second drive part for the second variable reactance element; a first current detection part detecting the current in the one end of the first antenna; a second current detection part detecting the current between the first antenna and the second antenna; a third current detection part detecting the current in the other end of the second antenna; and a control device controlling the first drive part and the second drive part.
