Abstract:
A dielectric barrier discharge apparatus for treating a substrate includes a first planar electrode; a dielectric layer disposed on a surface of the first planar electrode; a porous planar electrode spaced above and in a parallel plane with the dielectric layer, wherein the porous planar electrode has a geometric transmission factor greater than 70 percent; and a power supply in electrical communication with the first electrode and the second electrode. A process for treating a substrate includes exposing the substrate surface to reactants produced by the dielectric barrier discharge apparatus.
Abstract:
A process and apparatus for cooling a plasma tube generally includes flowing a hydrocarbon dielectric heat transfer fluid into a space defined by the plasma tube and a concentric tube surrounding the plasma tube. In one embodiment, the hydrocarbon fluid is selected to have a dissipation factor less than 0.002 and a thermal efficiency coefficient greater than or equal to 1.30 kJ/kg*K.

Abstract:
A contact measurement probe for measuring a temperature of a substrate in a process environment includes a probe head having a contact surface made of a ceramic material or a polymeric material for contacting the substrate. The contact measurement probe eliminates electrical biasing effects in process environments that include an ion source, thereby providing greater accuracy and reproducibility in temperature measurement.
