A novel feeding structure using a TE11 (transverse electric) rotating mode in a radial line slot antenna for plasma production is proposed. Moreover, novel slot patterns with different coupling slot distributions are fabricated and tested. Extremely uniform plasma over a large diameter is observed and the possibility of control of the plasma distribution in the radial direction by changing to different coupling slot distributions is verified.

This article reports characteristics of plasmas sustained with LIA modules and profile control capabilities. Experiments with a meter-scale reactor demonstrated uniform plasma production to attain densities as high as 5x1011 cm-3 at an argon pressure of 1.3 Pa and an RF power of 4 kW. Design issues for large-area plasma sources with a scale-size of 3 m were also presented to exhibit the feasibility of novel large-area plasma sources to meet the requirements of the next-generation meters-scale processing.
