(a) Schematic diagram of microwave plasma oxidation equipment. 2.45-GHz microwave generated by a magnetron is guided through the waveguide to the quartz discharge tube filled with pure oxygen gas. A plasma hemisphere with a diameter of 2.5 cm was well confined and located at the center of the chamber, as depicted in the inset. (b) SiC surface temperature as a function of O2 pressure and plasma power. (c) OES of plasma under various chamber pressures by fixing the power at 500 W.
