  • 電容耦合電漿源(Capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) sources)近年來已經被廣泛的使用在材料製程中。本研究旨為以流體模型電漿模擬計算分析,探討電容式耦合電漿源中,接地電極增加溝槽(trench)對電漿特性之影響,目的是為產生hollow cathode discharge(HCD),調控電漿分布與均勻性,本研究分為二部分,分別使用氬氣與四氟化碳,電將由27 MHz射頻驅動。模擬利用二維流體模型模擬在電漿蝕刻(Plasma etching)系統中的電漿行為,並透過分析模擬結果比較電漿特性與操作參數之關聯性。
    氬氣電漿模擬計算包含3個氣體粒子以及4條氣相反應,模擬結果顯示Argon電漿在電極未加溝槽時,接地電極端的鞘層厚度只有1.2 mm,溝槽出口處的電子密度為11017m-3,所以當溝槽寬度為4 mm時,Argon電漿即產生HCD效應,電子密度在溝槽出口處有明顯上升兩倍(2.41017m-3):因此對射頻電容式電漿放電而言,置接電地電極之溝槽連設置於仍會產生hollow cathode discharge效應,且當溝槽寬度必須大於兩倍鞘層厚度時才會產生明顯的HCD,另可透過在電極上連接不同的溝槽寬度來調控電漿密度的分布與均勻性。
    在CF4電漿模擬計算方面,包含11個氣體粒子以及43條氣相反應。首先建立基本電容式電漿(無溝槽)模型,模擬結果顯示CF4電漿因氟負離子集中於電漿區中央一極窄範圍內,空間密度梯度過高,數值計算沒有良好的收斂結果,測試過:調整收斂範圍,改變電漿初始值...但依舊還是存在模擬計算的問題。


    Capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) sources have been widely used for material processing. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of trench on the plasma properties. In this study, CCP discharges have been investigated by fluid model numerical simulations (CFD-ACE+, ESI Corp.).In order to produce the hollow cathode discharge (HCD) to tune the plasma distribution and uniformity. This study is divided into two parts, respectively, using Argon and Carbon tetrafluoride, the discharge is generated by a 27 MHz radio frequency power.. The two-dimensional fluid model was used to simulate the plasma behavior in the plasma etching system, and the correlation between the plasma properties and the operating parameters was compared by analyzing the simulation results.
    The simulation model takes into account 3 gaseous species and 4 reactions for Ar. Simulation results show that, for typical operation conditions(electrode without trench),the electrons ,is around 1.11017 1/m-3,are evenly concentrated in the plasma chamber, and the sheath width on the grounded electrode is 1.2 mm. When a trench of dimension 4 mm x 8 mm is added, simulation results reveal that there is a significant modification the spatial profile of the plasma density(2.41017 1/m-3), as a result of the hollow cathode effect:Simulation results show that, for typical operation conditions, the plasma density of the CCP is enhanced by the “hollow cathode“ effect of the trench if the width of the trench is wider than twice the thickness of the plasma sheath, as expected. In addition, simulation results also demonstrate that the plasma uniformity can also be tailored by the hollow cathode effect due to a grounded electrode (GE) trench.
    The simulation model takes into account 11 gaseous species and 43 reactions for Ar. First, the basic plasma model (without trench) was established. The simulation results show that the F- density is concentrated in the central a very narrow region with a large spatial density gradient, so the numerical convergence results is not good . We have been tested: adjust the convergence range and change the initial value of the plasma ... but there is still the simulation calculation problem.
