Abstract

A remote plasma source comprises a first plate-like electrode (7s) and a second plate-like electrode (7b) which are arranged in parallelism and mutually electrically DC isolated. The two electrodes (7s, 7b) are operationally connected to an Rf generator (11). The first electrode (7s) has a surface which is freely exposed to a substrate holder (3) and has a pattern of through-openings (19) distributed along its surface extent.
