Abstract :
We have developed an advanced endpoint detection (EPD) tool of NF3 remote plasma cleaning for CVD chambers in order to improve cleaning condition, or manage the endpoint regularly. The EPD tool has simple structure and easy maintenance with high cost performance. In this paper, it is reported that we have confirmed this tool realizing the stable EPD over 7 months at plasma-SiO CVD chambers for mass production.
