    Abstract: A process used to prevent attack of an aluminum based structure, exposed in a non-fully landed via hole, from solvents used during the wet stripping cycle, performed to remove the via hole defining photoresist shape, has been developed. The process features the formation of a protective aluminum oxide layer, on the exposed side of the aluminum based structure, via use of a plasma treatment, performed in an H.sub.2 O/N.sub.2 ambient. The H.sub.2 O/N.sub.2 plasma treatment procedure is performed after a dry plasma, photoresist stripping step, but prior to a final wet photoresist stripping step. The aluminum oxide layer offers protection of the exposed regions of the aluminum structure, located in the non-fully landed via hole, from reaction or corrosion, that can result from exposure of aluminum to the solvents used in the final wet photoresist stripping cycle.

    Abstract: A method of etching closely spaced trenches in a silicon body wherein a masked silicon body is introduced into a plasma etching apparatus. An object having an exposed silicon surface that is consumable by a plasma environment is provided in the apparatus. A reactive plasma environment is established in the apparatus which removes silicon from the body and the silicon object. The additional silicon from the object in the plasma influences the silicon removal from the body to thereby provide tapered trench side walls.

There is then formed over the substrate a low dielectric constant dielectric layer, where the low dielectric constant dielectric layer is formed from a silsesquioxane spin-on-glass (SOG) dielectric material. There is then formed over the low dielectric constant dielectric layer a patterned photoresist layer. There is then etched through use of a fluorine containing plasma etch method while employing the patterned photoresist layer as a photoresist etch mask layer the low dielectric constant dielectric layer to form a patterned low dielectric constant dielectric layer having a via formed therethrough. The fluorine containing plasma etch method employing a fluorine containing etchant gas composition which simultaneously forms a fluorocarbon polymer residue layer upon a sidewall of the via. There is then treated through use of a plasma treatment method the fluorocarbon polymer residue layer to form a plasma treated fluorocarbon polymer residue layer. The plasma treated fluorocarbon polymer residue layer is susceptible, in comparison with the fluorocarbon polymer residue layer, to being stripped from the sidewall of the via through an oxygen containing plasma stripping method employed in stripping from the microelectronics fabrication the patterned photoresist layer with attenuated lateral etching of the patterned low dielectric constant dielectric layer. Finally, there is then stripping through use of the oxygen containing plasma stripping method the patterned photoresist layer from over patterned low dielectric constant dielectric layer and the plasma treated fluorocarbon polymer residue layer from upon the sidewall of the via.
