Abstract
Provided are a shower head and a plasma processing apparatus including the same and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. The shower head includes an upper electrode having a first surface exposed to plasma and a second surface opposite to the first surface; a support member having a coupling surface opposing the second surface of the upper electrode; and a magnetic coupling device disposed on the second surface of the upper electrode and the coupling surface of the support member and magnetically coupling the upper electrode to the support member.
Claims20
A shower head, comprising:
- an upper electrode having a first surface exposed to plasma and a second surface opposite to the first surface;
- a support member having a coupling surface opposing the second surface of the upper electrode;
- and
- a magnetic coupling device disposed on the second surface of the upper electrode and the coupling surface of the support member and magnetically coupling the upper electrode to the support member.
A plasma processing apparatus, comprising:
- a chamber having a processing space;
- a chuck disposed in the processing space of the chamber, supporting a substrate and including a lower electrode;
- and
- a shower head disposed in an upper portion of the chamber and opposing the chuck,
- wherein the shower head includes:
- an upper electrode having a first surface exposed to plasma and a second surface opposite to the first surface;
- a cooling plate having a coupling surface opposing the second surface of the upper electrode;
- and
- a magnetic coupling device disposed between the second surface of the upper electrode and the coupling surface of the cooling plate and magnetically coupling the upper electrode to the cooling plate.
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, the method comprising:
- loading a substrate into a chamber including a shower head disposed in an upper portion of the chamber;
- and
- supplying a processing gas through the shower head into the chamber in which the substrate is loaded, exciting the processing gas in a plasma state and plasma-processing the substrate,
- wherein the shower head includes:
