Abstract
An inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus for a large area processing, the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus comprising: a reaction chamber; a plurality of linear antennas horizontally arranged at an inner upper portion of the reaction chamber while being spaced from each other by a predetermined distance for receiving induced RF power, the linear antennas being coupled to each other at an outer portion of the reaction chamber, the linear antennas including at least one bending antenna formed by connecting first ends of adjacent antennas, which are exposed to the outer portion of the reaction chamber, to each other; and at least one magnet positioned adjacent to the linear antennas for creating a magnetic field perpendicularly crossing an electric field created by the linear antennas in such a manner that electrons perform a spiral movement.
