| 20100269980 | PLASMA PROCESSING APPARATUS - A plasma processing apparatus, for performing a plasma processing on a target substrate by generating an inductively coupled plasma of a processing gas in a depressurized processing chamber, includes: a mounting table; a gas supply unit; a gas exhaust unit; a planar high frequency antenna disposed opposite to the mounting table with a plate-shaped dielectric member therebetween and a shield member covering the high frequency antenna. The high frequency antenna includes an inner antenna element provided at a central portion of a region above the plate-shaped dielectric member and an outer antenna element provided at an edge portion to surround a periphery of the inner antenna element. Further, two ends of each of the antenna elements are open ends and the antenna elements are grounded at central points thereof or points close thereto to resonate at ½ wavelengths of high frequencies from individual high frequency power supplies. | 10-28-2010 |
