Surface processing apparatus

Abstract

A surface processing apparatus includes a microwave generator which generates low UHF band microwaves of from 300 MHz to 1 GHz, a cavity resonator in which the microwaves generated in the microwave generator resonate in the TM 010 mode, an airtight process chamber which is connected to the cavity resonator, a radiation plate which is arranged in a part of the cavity resonator which is connected with the process chamber, the radiation plate has a plurality of radiation holes which are established symmetrically with respect to a central axis of the cavity resonator, and cover plates made of a dielectric material which close off the radiation holes in an airtight manner.
