    摘要: Apparatus and method for determination of the endpoint of a cleaning process in which cleaning fluid is contacted with a structure to effect cleaning thereof. The cleaning process includes contacting a cleaning fluid with a structure to be cleaned and producing a cleaning effluent having a sensible heat thermal energy characteristic corresponding to extent of cleaning of the structure, disposing an object in the cleaning effluent that interacts with the cleaning effluent to produce a response indicative of the sensible heat thermal energy characteristic of the cleaning effluent, and monitoring such response to determine when the cleaning is completed. An endpointing algorithm and endpoint monitoring are also described, as well as endpoint monitor sensor elements that are useful to determine endpoint conditions in an efficient and reproduceable manner.

    摘要: A gas sensor and method of gas sensing, e.g., of a type as useful with downstream sensor elements for determining the plasma conditions (e.g., plasma etching end point) in a semiconductor etching facility that utilizes halogen-containing plasma and/or oxygen-containing plasma. Such sensor elements are capable of exhibiting temperature change in the presence of energetic gas species, e.g., fluorine, chlorine, iodine, bromine, oxygen, and derivatives and radicals thereof that are generated by the plasma, and correspondingly generating an output signal indicative of such temperature change for determination of the plasma conditions in the etching plasma processing facility.

    摘要: A full fill trench structure is described, including a microelectronic device substrate having a high aspect ratio trench therein and filled with silicon dioxide of a substantially void-free character and substantially uniform density throughout its bulk mass. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor product also is described, involving use of specific silicon precursor compositions for forming substantially void-free and substantially uniform density silicon dioxide material in the trench. The precursor fill composition may include silicon and germanium, to produce a microelectronic device structure including a GeO2/SiO2 trench fill material. A suppressor component may be employed in the precursor fill composition, to eliminate or minimize seam formation in the cured trench fill material.
