    摘要: Methods of filling deep trenches in substrates are described. A method includes providing a substrate with a deep trench formed therein. The method also includes forming a dielectric layer conformal with the substrate and the deep trench. The method also includes, with the entire portion of the dielectric layer conformal with the deep trench exposed, removing at least a portion, but not all, of the dielectric layer at the top of the deep trench with a relatively low bias plasma etch process.

    摘要: Methods of forming deep trenches in substrates are described. A method includes providing a substrate with a patterned film disposed thereon, the patterned film including a trench having a first width and a pair of sidewalls, the trench exposing the top surface of the substrate. The method also includes forming a material layer over the patterned film and conformal with the trench. The method also includes etching the material layer to form sidewall spacers along the pair of sidewalls of the trench, the sidewall spacers reducing the first width of the trench to a second width. The method also includes etching the substrate to form a deep trench in the substrate, the deep trench undercutting at least a portion of the sidewall spacers.

    摘要: Openings of variable shape are made sequentially by alternately etching an opening in silicon and depositing a conformal fluorocarbon polymer on the sidewalls. This polymer protects the sidewalls of the opening from further etching. An isotropic etch can be carried out to change the profile of the etched feature, and for lift-off of the etched feature from the silicon substrate.

    摘要: A method for operating a plasma reactor to etch high-aspect-ratio features on a workpiece in a vacuum chamber. The method comprises the performance of an etch process followed by a flash process. During the etch process, a first gas is supplied into the vacuum chamber, and a plasma of the first gas is maintained for a first period of time. The plasma of the first gas comprises etchant and passivant species. During the flash process, a second gas comprising a deposit removal gas is supplied into the vacuum chamber, and a plasma of the second gas is maintained for a second period of time. The DC voltage between the workpiece and the plasma of the second gas during the second period of time is significantly less than the DC voltage between the workpiece and the plasma of the first gas during the first period of time.

    摘要: Micro devices are formed in situ in a high density in a substrate comprising a masked silicon layer over a stop layer of a silicon compound, by anisotropically etching the desired feature in the silicon layer, overetching to form a notch at the silicon-stop layer interface, depositing a protective fluorocarbon polymer layer on the sidewalls and bottom of the etched silicon layer, and isotropically etching to separate the etched feature from the stop layer. This method avoids the problems of stiction common in other methods of forming micro devices.
