    Abstract: The specification describes a masking technique for semiconductor processing in which the usual photolithographic mask is eliminated by the use of an ion beam resist technique. The ion beam exposure is performed through a shadow mask. The mask layer comprises a dual dielectric. Preferential etching of the exposed portions of the top layer is used initially to form the pattern and the patterned top layer is used as a mask for the underlayer. This is advantageous when the preferential etch ratio between the composite materials substantially exceeds the available etch ratio between the beam-exposed material and the unexposed material. The use of SiO2-Si3N4 and SiO2-Al2O3 composites are suggested. Ion-bombarded Si3N4 has been found to be susceptible to etching in HF so that a single etchant can be used for both layers of the SiO2-Si3N4 composite.

    Abstract: The specification describes a method for preparing a thin silicon high resolution shadow mask, the latter adapted especially for use in processing materials by ion implantation. The method makes use of the preferential etch technique for silicon in which, for example, n+ material can be electrolytically removed in preference to higher resistivity ntype silicon. A thin (e.g.

    Abstract: During SiO2 etching, when the oxide surface etch rate is larger than the bulk etch rate and the photoresist adheres tenaciously to the surface, a near vertical wall or cusp will be formed. This will create potential fracture spots in sputtered or evaporated metal which covers the steps. In the fabrication of self-aligned gate IGFETs, where the gate material acts as a mask against either etching or ion implantation, holes in the step metal will allow regions under the nominal gate to be doped during the source-drain doping. The slope of an etched step can be controlled by fabricating a double layer in which the top layer etches faster than the bulk. The specification describes the use of the enhanced etch rate of ion bombarded SiO2 to generate controlled tapers on window openings.

    Abstract: The spatial distribution of constituents and contaminants in a solid is determined either by (1) scanning the surface of the solid with a focused ion or neutral particle beam to sputter excited particles from the surface, resulting in photon emissions characteristic of the sputtered particles, and detecting the photon emissions over the scan period, or by (2) flooding the surface with a diffuse beam, and photographically recording the distribution of photon emissions. Continued sputtering results in removal of surface material and detection of the photon count rate or a sequence of photographs taken during each successive scan period indicates the distribution of constituents and contaminants in the bulk of the solid as a function of distance from the surface.
