The present invention generally relates to a capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) processing chamber, a manner to reduce or prevent stray capacitance, and a manner to measure plasma conditions within the processing chamber. As CCP processing chambers increase in size, there is a tendency for stray capacitance to negatively impact the process. Additionally, RF ground straps may break. By increasing the spacing between the chamber backing plate and the chamber wall, stray capacitance may be minimized. Additionally, the plasma may be monitored by measuring the conditions of the plasma at the backing plate rather than at the match network. In so measuring, the plasma harmonic data may be analyzed to reveal plasma processing conditions within the chamber. 1.
