Abstract

Low pressure inductively coupled plasma characteristics of argon and oxygen are numerically simulated for a 400 mm rectangular type system with a plasma fluid model. The results showed lower power absorption profile at the corner than a circular one in a 13.56 MHz driven 1.5 turn antenna system with a drift-diffusion and quasi-neutrality assumption. Ions controlled by electric field are more non-uniform than metastables and the power absorption profile of oxygen plasma is affected by horizontal gas flow pattern to show 25% lower power absorption at the pumping flange side. Oxygen negative ions which are generated in electron collisional dissociation of oxygen molecules was calculated as 0.1% of oxygen atoms with similar spatial profile.
