摘要
A variety of induction-coupled plasma source designs have been characterized for their ability to couple charged species to a lower electrode. Designs can be classified in a spectrum from remote sources, through plasma transport sources, to close-coupled sources. The DC self-bias on a lower electrode at constant bias power is used as a diagnostic of plasma coupling between source and lower electrode.
