Abstract:
A dual frequency matching circuit for plasma enhanced semiconductor processing chambers having dual frequency cathodes is provided. The matching circuit includes two matching circuits with variable shunts combined to a common output. The matching circuit balances the load of the independent RF sources to that of the plasma in the processing chamber during operation.
