The effect of electrode charging on the ion energy distribution (IED) was investigated in the dual-frequency capacitively coupled plasma source which was powered of 100 MHz RF at the top electrode and 400 kHz bias on the bottom electrode. The charging property was analyzed with the distortion of the measured current and voltage waveforms. The capacitance and the resistance of electrode sheath can change the property of ion and electron charging on the electrode so it is sensitive to the plasma density which is controlled by the main power. The ion energy distribution was estimated by equivalent circuit model, being compared with the measured distribution obtained from the ion energy analyzer. Results show that the low frequency bias power changes effectively the low energy population of ion in the energy distribution.
