Technical Field
The present invention relates to an active gas generator using dielectric barrier discharge, which has a parallel plate electrode structure and is used in a semiconductor film forming apparatus.
Background
One of the installation positions of an active gas generator having a parallel plate electrode structure and utilizing dielectric barrier discharge is disposed above a processing object such as a wafer. In this method, since it is necessary to uniformly blow the active gas to the entire object to be processed, a shower plate for uniformly blowing the gas is generally disposed between the active gas generating device and the object to be processed.
However, since the active gas flow region in the shower plate is a non-discharge space that does not participate in the dielectric barrier discharge, the period of time in which the active gas flows from the active gas flow region in the shower plate is a period of time in which the active gas is deactivated. Therefore, when the active gas generating device generates an active gas having an extremely short lifetime such as nitrogen radicals, deactivation of the radicals is significantly promoted in the process of flowing through the shower plate.
Thus, the use of the shower plate in the active gas generator is not preferable because the phenomenon of deactivation of the active gas is more likely to occur.
As a conventional active gas generating apparatus not using a shower plate, for example, an atmospheric pressure plasma reaction apparatus disclosed in patent document 1 is known.
In the 1 st conventional technique disclosed in patent document 1, a flat plate-like electrode arranged to face each other is arranged in a vertical shape, and an active gas generated by discharge between the electrodes is blown onto a substrate. In the conventional technique 1, a plurality of electrode structures are arranged for processing a large-area substrate.
As described above, according to the related art 1, the number of electrode structures is increased, and a plurality of electrode structures are used, whereby it is possible to easily cope with the area of the substrate.
As another active gas generating apparatus not using a shower plate, for example, there is a plasma processing apparatus disclosed in

Further, paragraph [0063] and fig. 9 of

Problems to be solved by the invention
In the 1 st prior art disclosed in patent document 1, a device capable of dealing with a large-area object to be processed can be realized by adopting a plurality of electrode structures.
However, in the case of the conventional technique 1, if a plurality of electrode structures are adopted, it is necessary to provide a high voltage electrode and a ground electrode in each of the plurality of electrode structures, and the device structure becomes complicated. Further, in the conventional technique 1, since the flow direction of the raw material gas is vertical, in order to increase the concentration of the active gas, it is necessary to sufficiently increase the vertical formation length of the high-voltage electrode and the ground electrode constituting the electrode structure, and the height of the apparatus inevitably increases, resulting in an increase in the size of the apparatus.
As described above, the prior art 1 disclosed in patent document 1 has a problem of complicating and enlarging the device structure.
Next, the 2 nd prior art disclosed in
In the above-described basic configuration 1, since the electric field intensity at the surface such as the end of the
Since the surface layer of the conductive layer (12) is connected to the discharge space (gap (9)) between the electrodes, there is a possibility that the evaporated molecules of the conductive layer (12) are mixed into the active gas and contaminate the substrate (15) during the gas transport to the discharge space.
As described above, the following problems occur in the 1 st basic configuration of the 2 nd conventional art: particles and metal vapor are generated in the discharge section (3), and the substrate (15) may be contaminated.
In order to reliably prevent the substrate (15) from being contaminated, it is necessary to sufficiently increase the insulation distance of the discharge section (3). However, increasing the insulation distance is not preferable because it inevitably increases the size of the device configuration.
On the other hand, in the 2 nd basic structure of

Fig. 16 is a sectional view showing a sectional structure of a modification of the 2 nd basic configuration in the 2 nd prior art. The region shown in fig. 16 corresponds to an enlarged region of the region of interest R7 and the vicinity thereof in fig. 15.
In the modification of the 2 nd basic configuration, when the
As described above, the problem of the decrease in the concentration of the active gas is caused in the 2 nd basic configuration (fig. 15) of the 2 nd prior art, and the problem of the generation of contaminants is caused in the modification (fig. 16) of the 2 nd basic configuration.
The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an active gas generator capable of simplifying and reducing the size of the device configuration, and capable of suppressing the deactivation of the active gas.
Means for solving the problems
An active gas generator according to the present invention generates an active gas by activating a source gas supplied to a discharge space where dielectric barrier discharge is generated, and includes: an electrode unit base having a 1 st electrode and a 2 nd electrode and receiving an alternating voltage from the outside; an electrode unit cover disposed on a surface of the electrode unit base; an electrode pressing plate provided on a surface of the electrode unit cover and pressing the electrode unit cover with a pressing force applied from above; and a device case that accommodates the electrode unit base, the electrode unit cover, and the electrode pressing plate, wherein the electrode unit base includes: 1 st and 2 nd electrode grooves formed at a predetermined depth from the surface of the electrode unit base; the 1 st and 2 nd electrodes embedded in the 1 st and 2 nd electrode grooves, respectively, and having conductivity; and a gas internal flow path formed in the electrode unit base and through which a source gas flows, the gas internal flow path being provided in a spiral shape in plan view, the 1 st and 2 nd electrodes being provided in a spiral shape in plan view together with the gas internal flow path, the 1 st and 2 nd electrodes having 1 st and 2 nd conduction points at end portions thereof, the 1 st and 2 nd electrodes being disposed on both sides of the gas internal flow path so as to face each other with a part of the electrode unit base and the gas internal flow path interposed therebetween, a region in the gas internal flow path between the 1 st and 2 nd electrodes serving as the discharge space and generating a dielectric barrier discharge in the discharge space by receiving the alternating voltage, the electrode unit base further including at least one gas ejection hole provided in communication with the gas internal flow path below the discharge space, and an electrode unit cover configured to eject an active gas obtained by activating the raw material gas supplied into the discharge space from the at least one gas ejection port, the electrode unit cover including: a gas relay hole provided so as to be connected to the gas internal flow path of the electrode unit base; and 1 st and 2 nd through holes provided in regions coinciding with the 1 st and 2 nd conduction points in a plan view and formed to penetrate therethrough, respectively, the electrode pressing plate including: an opening portion that covers the 1 st through hole in a plan view and has a shape wider than the 1 st through hole; and a gas supply hole provided in a region that coincides with the gas relay hole in a plan view, wherein the electrode pressing plate is electrically connected to the 2 nd conduction point via the 2 nd through hole.
Effects of the invention
An active gas generator according to claim 1 of the present invention is an active gas generator comprising an electrode unit base having a gas internal passage formed spirally in a plan view and at least one gas ejection port provided below a discharge space so as to communicate with the gas internal passage.
Therefore, the active gas generator according to the present invention recited in claim 1 has an effect of effectively suppressing the phenomenon of the active gas being deactivated because no non-discharge space participating in the dielectric barrier discharge is formed between at least one gas ejection port and the discharge space.
Further, since the electrode unit base can exhibit the above-described effects with a relatively simple configuration in which at least one gas ejection port, the 1 st electrode, the 2 nd electrode, and the gas internal flow path are provided, the device configuration of the active gas generator can be simplified.
In the active gas generator according to the present invention described in claim 1, the gas internal flow path is provided in a spiral shape in plan view. Therefore, the active gas can be ejected from the at least one gas ejection port in a state of being saturated in gas concentration without increasing the area of the electrode unit base itself, and the device can be miniaturized accordingly.
In the active gas generator according to claim 1 of the present invention, the electrode cell cover has a 1 st via hole and a 2 nd via hole which are provided in a region coinciding with the 1 st via point and the 2 nd via point in a plan view and which penetrate therethrough, respectively.
Therefore, the electrode cell cover can seal the upper side of the electrode cell base while ensuring the electrical connection function between the 1 st and 2 nd conduction parts and the outside through the 1 st and 2 nd conduction holes.
Further, since the electrode pressing plate has the opening portion covering the 1 st through hole in a plan view and having a shape wider than the 1 st through hole, the function of electrically connecting the 1 st through hole and the outside can be secured through the 1 st through hole. The electrode pressing plate can electrically connect the 2 nd via hole to the electrode pressing plate itself via the 2 nd via hole.
Further, the electrode pressing plate can stably press the electrode unit cover.
The objects, features, aspects and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings.
