Abstract

A SiH₄/H₂ VHF plasma was produced with the multi rod electrode and the fundamental plasma parameters were examined as a function of pressure and power, where the frequency of the power source was 60MHz. It was found that the ion saturation current takes a peak at a certain power as well as pressure. These results were discussed from the point of view of electron trapping effect in VHF electric fields. In addition, anomalous reduction of the sheath potential was observed.
