A mode transition from the capacitively coupled plasma to the inductively coupled one is experimentally studied for the frequencies of 2 MHz as well as 13.56 MHz. The results show that the electron density, at which the transition is occurred, is systematically changed. At 2 MHz, particularly, the transition is very dependent on the permittivity of the RF power window. A simple model with inclusions of the electron power absorption mechanisms through the capacitive and the inductive coupling is proposed. As a criterion, the critical electron density is formulated in terms of the frequency and the permittivity.
