3 INTRODUCTION External circuitry significantly effects the plasma characteristics and the performance of rf plasma processing reactors. A plasma equipment simulation, consisting of a coupled plasma reactor model and a circuit model, has been developed to investigate the interaction of plasmas and circuits. In this talk, we describe the model and use it to study relevant issues in asymmetric capacitive discharges and inductively coupled plasmas (ICP). Electrode currents generally have significant amplitude at higher harmonics due to the nonlinear nature of the sheaths. Nonlinear sheaths also lead to rf source interaction which can produce results that are significantly different than due to the sum of individual sources. Electrical and plasma characteristics sensitively depend on source frequency and voltage waveform, which can be used as actuators to control plasma processes. WISC98_F3
4 THE COMPUTATIONAL MODEL Our computational platform consists of the coupled Hybrid Plasma Equipment Model (HPEM) and a circuit model. The circuit model uses intermediate results from the HPEM to compute voltages (dc, fundamental and harmonics) at electrodes.

5 THE HYBRID PLASMA EQUIPMENT MODEL The Hybrid Plasma Equipment Model (HPEM) is our general plasma equipment simulation and it consists of three coupled modules. In the first module, inductive electromagnetic fields are computed and coil circuitry is simulated. The second module computes electron transport coefficients and sources for electron impact reactions using either (1) a Monte Carlo simulation or (2) by solving electron energy equation in conjunction with the Boltzmann equation. The third module computes particle densities, fluxes and temperatures, and also the electrostatic fields. The three modules are coupled and they are iterated until quasi-steady state conditions are obtained. The HPEM is linked to an extensive chemical and physical database. In the past, the HPEM has been usd to model capacitive discharges, ICPs, dc plasma devices and many other plasma based systems. WISC98_F5
6 SIMULTANEOUS PLASMA-CIRCUIT SIMULATION At the end of each HPEM iteration, the reactor is replaced with an equivalent circuit consisting of sheaths at all important reactor surfaces and effective resistors to represent the bulk plasma. Each sheath is treated as a nonlinear circuit element whose V-I characteristics are governed by the Riley s sheath model. The nonlinear sheath elements are connected to the external circuitry as shown on the next transparency. The circuit is general enough that most external components and stray elements can be approximated. This nonlinear circuit is solved using an implicit time integration scheme until all voltages and currents reach steady-state. The resulting voltages (dc, fundamental and harmonics) at the electrodes are used as boundary conditions for the next HPEM iteration. WISC98_F6

8 THE GEC REFERENCE CELL We first explore plasma-circuit interaction in the capacitively coupled GEC reference cell. Sources and blocking capacitors have been connected to both electrodes. 1.9 [e] (Max = 1.18 x 1 1 cm-3) Electrode 2 C2 E2 Showerhead V2 E1 G Electrode 1 Dark Space Shield Pump Port 1.2 Radius (cm) C1 V1 Ar, 1 mtorr, V1 = 1 V, V2 = V.

9 SHEATH VOLTAGES AND CURRENTS A negative dc voltage appears across the capacitor C1 (dc bias) to balance currents through the powered and grounded surfaces.

10 EFFECT OF APPLIED VOLTAGE At 1 mtorr in Ar, the sheath-circuit model correctly predicts the dc bias for applied voltages between V. As applied voltage is increased, the dc bias amplitude increases to balance the disproportionate increase in the two electrodes electron current mtorr Max. in experiment Simulation -6 Min. in experiment* RF Voltage at powered electrode (V) Ar, 1 mtorr, V2 = V, MHz. WISC98_F1
11 EFFECT OF GAS PRESSURE The sheath-circuit model is able to correctly predict the dc bias for higher pressures as well. As pressure increases, the plasma gets better confined between the electrodes, the discharge becomes more symmetric and the dc bias amplitude decreases Max. in experiment Simulation Min. in experiment* Gas pressure (mtorr) Ar, V1 = 1 V, V2 = V, MHz. WISC98_F11
12 EFFECT OF GAS PRESSURE ON PLASMA DENSITY As pressure increases, the plasma gets better confined in the inter-electrode region. [e] (Max = 2.2 x 11 cm-3) [e] (Max = 4.2 x 11 cm-3) mtorr 5 mtorr Radius (cm) 1.2 Radius (cm) 1.2 Ar, V1 = 1 V, V2 = V, MHz. WISC98_F12
13 EFFECT OF APPLIED VOLTAGE ON ELECTRODE CURRENT As the applied voltage is increased, more stochastic and ohmic heating takes place. The resulting electron density and electrode currents are therefore larger Experiment*.15.1 Simulation RF Voltage at Powered Electrode (V) Ar, 1 mtorr, V1 = 1 V, V2 = V, MHz. WISC98_F13
14 EFFECT OF SOURCE FREQUENCY IN Ar Total current through electrodes and walls increases with frequency because of enhancement of displacement current. Larger current leads to more electron heating and larger electron densities. Electron temperature decreases with frequency, resulting in better electron confinement between electrodes and smaller dc biases.

15 EFFECT OF SOURCE FREQUENCY IN Ar/CF4 Electron density and electrode currents depend on frequency in the same manner in Ar/CF4 as in Ar. The dc voltages however vary nonmonotonically with frequency in Ar/CF4 because the electron Bias (C1) temperature dependence on frequency is different.

16 EFFECT OF MATCHING NETWORK - I Since plasmas are nonlinear, seemingly similar external circuitry may lead to different plasma characteristics. In the circuits below, the two matching networks are exact (T-Π) transform of each other at the fundamental frequency.

20 EFFECT OF WAVEFORM ON PLASMA PARAMETERS Waveforms which have higher first harmonic lead to larger dc biases. Higher first harmonics also lead to enhanced power deposition in the plasma and higher electron densities. Since displacement current increases with frequency, waveforms with larger amplitudes at higher harmonics result in larger plasma densities.

22 CONSEQUENCES OF SOURCE INTERACTION - I In these results, a MHz source (V1=1 V) is connected to E1 while a MHz source is connected to E2. Electron density increases with V2 (27.12 MHz) due to the enhancement of displacement currents. 1 The dc bias magnitude on E1 decreases with increasing V2 (27.12 WISC98_F22 MHz) due to source interactions Sheath Electrode E2 Bias (C2) V2(27.12 MHz) (V) Ar, 1 mtorr, V1 (13.56 MHz) = 1 V Electrode E1 Above E1 Sheath Centerx.1 Bias (C1) V2(27.12 MHz) (V)
23 CONSEQUENCES OF SOURCE INTERACTION - II In these results, we show the sheath voltages and currents for only the MHz source, MHz source and their combination. Sheath voltages at E1 and E2 are primarily governed by the sources connected to them. The sheath voltage at the grounded wall is, however, in the linear regime and the two sources interact increasing the sheath voltage drop. DC bias at E1, which is the difference between the dc sheath voltage at E1 and wall, therefore decreases in magnitude. WISC98_F Both Both Both Both (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) Both Time (1/13.56 µs)
24 INDUCTIVELY COUPLED PLASMA (ICP) SOURCE We next consider the effects of rf bias frequency and rf source interaction in an ICP reactor. For circuit simulation, the dielectric window is replaced by effective capacitors. [e] (Max = 5.4 x 111 cm-3) Coils Showerhead CW4 CW Electrode (S1) S2 S3 C1 V1 2 WISC98_F24 Pump Port 17. Radius (cm) Ar, 2 mtorr, 5 W, V1 (13.56 MHz) = 1 V.
25 TYPICAL SHEATH VOLTAGES AND CURRENTS Most of the rf current flows out through the grounded surfaces. Sheath voltage is larger near the grounded walls at 1 MHz because of low plasma density (i.e., high impedance) adjacent to them V2,3 V4 V1 V5-14 2π 4π ωt (radians) I2 I3 I5 I π 4π ωt (radians) I1 Ar, 2 mtorr, 5 W, V1 (1 MHz) = 1 V. WISC98_F25
26 EFFECT OF RF BIAS SOURCE FREQUENCY Since plasma is generated by the inductive source, rf bias frequency does not significantly affect the electron density. Displacement current through the sheaths increases with bias frequency, enhancing the total sheath current Frequency (MHz) 5 3 Bias (C1) -3 Sheath Ar, 2 mtorr, 5 W, V1 = 1 V. WISC98_F Frequency (MHz)
27 WHY DOES RF BIAS FREQUENCY STRONGLY EFFECT DC BIAS? Most of the current through the substrate is conduction while that at grounded surfaces is displacement. An increase in rf bias frequency, therefore, decreases the sheath impedance more strongly at grounded surfaces than at the substrate. The resulting disproportional change in sheath voltage at different surfaces modifies the dc bias at the substrate I2 I3-2 2π 4π ωt (radians) I V2,3 V1-14 2π 4π ωt (radians) Ar, 2 mtorr, 5 W, V1 (3 MHz) = 1 V. WISC98_F27
28 DEPENDANCE OF DC BIAS ON COIL DESIGN The dc bias is a global characteristic of rf discharges, which develops to balance rf current through the reactor surfaces. To the degree that the location of the coils governs the uniformity of the plasma, the location of the coils also governs proportions of current to surfaces. Since the rf impedance of the window is large, a shift in the plasma to larger radii allows more current to be collected by the walls, and makes the dc bias more negative. 15 [e] (Max = 5.4 x 111 cm-3) 1 A B C D 7 4 [e] (Max = 3.2 x 111 cm-3) Showerhead Coils A & B B & C dc Bias (V) Ar, 2 mtorr, 5 W, V1 = 1 V.

29 RF SOURCE INTERACTION IN ICP REACTOR In these results, a MHz source (V1 = 1 V) is connected to S1 while a WISC98_F MHz source is connected to S3. Sheath voltage at S1 is mainly governed by the rf bias source. The two rf sources, however, interact at the grounded surface S2 and change the sheath voltage there. Dc bias at S1 is therefore modified VS3(27.12 MHz) (V) VSheath Bias (C1) Electrode S VS3(27.12 MHz) (V) Ar, 2 mtorr, 5 W, V1 (13.56 MHz) = 1 V.
30 CONCLUSIONS To investigate plasma-circuit interaction, a coupled plasma equipment and circuit model has been developed. In this talk, results from the model were used to investigate the consequences of applied voltage and operating conditions on plasma and electrical characteristics of asymmetric capacitive discharges and ICPs. Electrode currents were generally found to have significant amplitude at higher harmonics due to the nonlinear nature of the sheaths. Nonlinear sheaths also led to rf source interaction, which produced results that were significantly different than due to the sum of individual sources. Electrical and plasma characteristics sensitively depend on source frequency and voltage waveform, which can be used as actuators to control plasma processes. Inductive power deposition profile governs the distribution of current through different surfaces in ICPs, and influences the electrical characteristics of the discharge. WISC98_F3
