    摘要: An ion source suitably used for an etching process among manufacturing processes for e.g. semiconductor devices, comprising a vacuum container, an anode disposed in the vacuum container, a cathode having one or more looped slits formed opposite said anode, and one or more permanent magnets located in a position or positions corresponding to a portion of the cathode surrounded by the looped slit or slits and forming a magnetic field having a direction at substantially right angles to the direction of an electric field formed by applying a voltage between the anode and cathode, a gas which is introduced into the vacuum container through an inlet means formed in the vacuum container being made into gas plasma by means of the electric and magnetic fields at right angles to each other, whereby positive ions in the gas plasma will be taken out through the looped slit or slits.

    摘要: A dry-etching method for performing anisotropic etching on a semiconductor substrate by employing an etching gas together with a film-forming gas while irradiating light or an X-ray on the semiconductor substrate. In this method at least one of the etching gas or film-forming gas is excited in a separated chamber before being introduced into an etching chamber. A dry-etching apparatus for performing the above dry-etching method is also proposed.

    摘要: A dry etching apparatus using reactive ions is disclosed. A housing in which a workpiece is etched is provided with a cathode electrode on which the workpiece is mounted, and an anode electrode arranged opposite the cathode electrode. An etching gas is supplied to the housing, and pressure inside of the housing is held at a certain level. High frequency voltage is applied between the cathode and anode electrodes. A plurality of magnets are arranged outside of the housing to generate magnetic fields around the cathode electrode. The plurality of magnets are separated from one another, with a predetermined clearance being interposed therebetween, to form an endless track. The plurality of magnets are moved along the endless track, to thereby cause the magnetic fields to be moved in one direction on the cathode electrode.

    摘要: A dry etching apparatus which includes an anode located at an upper side and a cathode located at a lower side which face each other in a vacuum vessel. A high-frequency power can be applied across the anode and the cathode. A flange section extends from the inner wall of the vacuum vessel, and is located between the anode and the cathode. A semiconductor wafer can be placed on the cathode through a tray. The cathode is moved toward the anode together with the tray and the wafer. When the edge portion of the tray abuts against the flange section, the interior of the vacuum vessel is partitioned into an etching chamber and the other chamber. A magnetic field is applied to the etching chamber from outside the vacuum vessel, and an etching gas is also introduced into the etching chamber. When the etching gas is introduced, the interior of the etching chamber is evacuated to be maintained at a predetermined pressure.
