ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for adjusting an electric field of an electrochemical processing cell are provided. In one embodiment, a capacitive element is disposed in the processing solution. The strength, shape, or direction of the electric field in the processing solution may be modulated by charging and discharging the capacitive element in a controlled manner. Because the electric field is modulated with out passing a current from the capacitive element to the processing solution, electrochemical reactions do not occur on the interface of the capacitive element and the processing solution, thus, reduces complications caused by unwanted electrochemical reactions.
