Abstract

A process chamber having moveable electrodes for generating a parallel field within a process volume filled with a fluid is provided. In one implementation, a major axis of the process chamber is oriented vertically and a substrate support is disposed opposite a plurality of moveable electrodes extending along the major axis of the process chamber. In certain implementations, the substrate support is electrically floating and capable of rotating about a minor axis of the process chamber during processing of a substrate.
