説明

Loss processes of F atoms in low-pressure, high-density CF4 plasmas with the admixture of H2 were investigated through absolute density and lifetime measurements using vacuum ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy. To examine the influence of surface chemistry on the destruction of F atoms, the measurements were carried out for two types of seasoning procedures; 1) the density and the lifetime for various H2 partial pressures were measured after sufficient seasoning discharges at each H2 partial pressure, and 2) the density and the lifetime for various H2 partial pressures were measured after sufficient seasoning discharges at an H2 percentage of 50%. As a result, different F atom densities and lifetimes were observed for the two types of seasoning procedures, suggesting the importance of surface chemistry in the destruction of F atoms. The gas-phase and surface loss frequencies were roughly evaluated by analyzing the experimental observations. The results indicate that, for the former seasoning procedure (usual operating condition), the surface loss dominates the gas-phase loss when a small amount of H2 (<20%) is admixed into CF4 plasmas. This means that the decrease in the F atom density arising due to the addition of a small amount of H2 is obtained by the increase in the surface loss frequency and not by the gas-phase reaction F + H2 → HF + H.
