摘要： A photomask repair method including scanning an electron beam across a main surface of the photomask, thereby producing a pattern image of the photomask, identifying the position of a defective portion from the pattern image thus produced, and applying an electron beam to a region to be etched including a defective portion under an atmosphere of a gas capable of performing a chemical etching of a film material forming the photomask pattern, thereby removing a defect. In this method, the electron beam to be applied to the region to be etched is a shaped beam. The electron beam is set such that the side of the electron beam is applied in parallel to a borderline between a non-defective pattern and the defect.

摘要： A semiconductor wafer etching system exhausts an exhaust gas including fluorocarbon gas to an exhaust line. Two traps, that are capable of trapping the fluorocarbon gas in the exhaust gas by cooled adsorption and releasing the adsorbed fluorocarbon gas by heating, are alternately arranged on the exhaust line. The two traps are alternately separated from the exhaust gas and regenerated on a regeneration line which serves to release the adsorbed fluorocarbon gas from the traps. The trap which is in the trap mode to adsorb the fluorocarbon gas is cooled to −120° C. or less. The trap which is in the regeneration mode to release the adsorbed fluorocarbon gas is heated to −100° C. or more.

摘要： There is provided a method of forming an interlayer insulating film having a dual-damascene structure, a contact hole and a deep trench mask using an organic silicon film. The shape of polysilane or the like is processed so that polysilane is used as an interlayer insulating film having a dual-damascene structure to control the shape and depth and prevent borderless etching which must be solved when a trench is formed. Polysilane and an insulating film are formed into a laminated structure so as to be integrated with each other after a dry etching step has been completed to easily form a contact hole having a high aspect ratio. The surface of polysilane is selectively formed into an insulating film so as to be used as a mask for use in a dry etching step. Polysilane for use as an anti-reflective film or an etching mask is changed to an oxide film or a nitride film so that films are easily removed. Hence it follows that a device region and a device isolation region of a densely integrated circuit can be smoothed, a self-aligned contact hole and metallization trench can be formed with a satisfactory manufacturing yield and the pattern of a gate electrode can be formed.
