Abstract

A plasma deposition system for sputter depositing material from a target onto a wafer, the system including a vacuum chamber; a platform for holding the wafer during plasma processing; a source onto which the target is mounted and for generating a plasma in the chamber during operation; an equipotential conductive plane dividing the chamber into an upper cavity in which the target is located and a lower cavity in which the wafer is located, the equipotential conductive plane permitting material sputtered from the target to pass therethrough; and an upper antenna located inside the upper cavity and surrounding the plasma, the upper antenna for coupling RF power into the source-generated plasma.
