Abstract
Plasma excitation systems for semiconductor processing were initially adapted from the radio broadcasting industry, and even today the power architecture retains many vestigial features that are no longer required. A review of the physical mechanisms for transferring RF energy into a plasma gives insight into more efficient approaches for power delivery, which also expand process range and improve process repeatability. Power density in the latest generation of process tools also demands better solutions for removing heat. Some alternate thermal management approaches using cryogenic hardware will be discussed.
