Abstract :
Reducing PFC emissions from PECVD (plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition) cleaning is the key to meet the strict targets set by the WSC (World Semiconductor Council) in 1999. The effective method using the chamber impedance monitor is proposed for reducing PFC emissions for existing production lines
