  • The plasma density distribution in between the electrode and lateral wall of a narrow gap CCP was investigated. The plasma density distribution was obtained using single Langmuir probe, having two peaks of density distribution at the center of electrode and at the peripheral area of electrodes. The plasma density distribution was compared with the RF fluctuation of plasma potential taken from capacitive probe. Ionization reactions obtained from numerical analysis using CFD-$ACE^+$ fluid model based code. The peaks in two region for plasma density and voltage fluctuation have similar spatial distribution according to input power. It was found that plasma density distribution between the electrode and the lateral wall is closely related with the local ionization.

  • Four plasma instruments are currently under development for KAISTSAT-4 (K-4) which is scheduled for launch in 2002. They are the Solid-State Telescope, Electro-Static Analyzer, Langmuir Probe, and the Scientific Magnetometer, that will respectively allow in-situ detection of high energy and low energy components of auroral particles, ionospheric thermal electrons, and magnetic field disturbances. These instruments, together with the Far-ultraviolet IMaging Spectrograph, will provide micro-scale physics of Earth's polar ionosphere with detailed spectral information that has not been previously achieved with other space missions. In this paper, we review the concept of the four space plasma instruments as well as the anticipated results from the instruments.

  • This study was tried to form the silica waveguide using high density plasma. Plasma characteristics have been investigated as a function of etch parameters using a single Langmuir probe and optical emission spectroscopy(OES). As etch parameters, $CF_4/CHF_3$ ratio, bias power, and source power were chosen as main variables. The oxide etch characteristics of inductively coupled plasma(ICP) dry etcher such as the etch rate, etch profile, and surface roughness were investigated s a function of etch parameters. On the basis of these results, the core pattern of the wave guide composed of $SiO_2-P_2O_5$ was formed. It was confirmed that the etch rate of $SiO_2-P_2O_5$ core layer was 380 nm/min and the aluminum selectivity to oxide, that is, mask layer was approximately 30:1. The SEM images showed vertical etched profiles and minimal loss of pattern width.

  • The electrical characteristics and the plasma parameters of planar inductively coupled plasmas (ICP) have been measured. The resistance of the total load including the coil and the plasma varied from 1 to 4 W and the inductance from 1.5 m to 2 mH when the power was changed from 100 to 1000 W and the pressure from 1 to 10 mTorr. The density of electron measured by Langmuir probe was over $10^{11}/\textrm{cm}^3$ and the temperature varied between 3 and 5 eV as the process conditions were changed. Bias modulation was adopted as a new method to improve the selectivity of $SiO_2$on Si in $C_4F_8$ (octafluorocyclobutane) plasma. The selectivity was improved as the duty ratio decreased, but the etch rate of $SiO_2$decreased below 400$\AA$/min. $H_2$addition to $C_4F_8$ plasma showed that the etch selectivity could be higher than 50 and the etch rate of $SiO_2$over 2000$\AA$/min when 60% $H_2$was added.

  • The characteristic parameters of high density plasma source (Helical Resonator) have been measured with Langmuir probe to get the plasma density electron temperature, ion current density, etc. Optical emission spectra of Si and SiCl have been analyzed in $Cl_2$$/poly-Si system to elucidate etching mechanism. In this system, the main reaction to remove silicon atoms on the surface is proceeding mostly through chemical reaction, not pure physical reaction. The emission intensity of SiCl (chemical etching product) increases much faster than Si (pure physical etching product) with increasing the concentration of impurities (P). This is due to the electron transfer from substrate to the surface via Si-Cl bond. As a result, Si-Cl bond becomes more ionic and mobile, therefore the Cl-containing etchant forms $SiCl_x$ with surface more easily. Consequently, for the removal of Si atom from poly silicon surface, the chemical etching is more favorable than physical etching with increasing P concentrations.

  • The plasma ion density in AC-PDP has shown to be increased from $5.6{\times}10^{11}cm^{-3}$ to $9.0{\times}10^{11)cm^{-3}$ as the Xe mixture ratio to neon increase from 1 % to 10 %, respectively, at fixed pressure of 400 Torr, by using the micro-Langmuir probe. It is noted that the plasma ion density is density increases as the gas pressure increases in this experiment. The electron temperature decreases from 2.3 to 1.2 eV as the Xe mole fraction increases from 1 % to 10 % at fixed pressure of 400 Torr, which is measured by the micro Langmuir probe and high-speed ICCD camera in this experiment. It is noted that the electron temperature decreases as the gas pressure increases from 150 to 400 Torr in this experiment. It is also observed that the exited Xe atom density and the plasma ion density are in strong correlation sharp between each other in this experiment. It is noted that $5.2{\times}10^{12}cm^{-3}$ in the $1s_5$ metastable state and $1.2{\times}10^{12}cm^{-3}$ in the $1s_4$ resonance state for the PDP cell with gap of 50 um distances under the fixed gas pressure of 400 Torr and Xe content ratio of 10 %.
