    摘要: A method of etching silicon oxide with high selectivity to a photoresist mask and to a silicon-containing substrate comprising exposing the silicon oxide to a plasma of a precursor etch gas of a fluorocarbon and an organic silane containing at least one organic group. When at least about 10% by weight of the silane is present in the etch gas, the selectivity between the silicon oxide and the photoresist mask layer, and between the silicon oxide and the silicon-containing substrate, increases markedly. High aspect ratio, submicron size openings can be etched.

    摘要: An oxide etching recipe including a heavy hydrogen-free fluorocarbon having F/C ratios less than 2, preferably C4F6, an oxygen-containing gas such as O2 or CO, a lighter fluorocarbon or hydrofluorocarbon, and a noble diluent gas such as Ar or Xe. The amounts of the first three gases are chosen such that the ratio (F—H)/(C—O) is at least 1.5 and no more than 2. Alternatively, the gas mixture may include the heavy fluorocarbon, carbon tetrafluoride, and the diluent with the ratio of the first two chosen such the ratio F/C is between 1.5 and 2.

    摘要: A vacuum chamber contains a first electrode for supporting a wafer, and a second electrode opposing the first electrode. A supply system and an exhaustion system are connected to the vacuum chamber. The system supplies a reactive gas into the chamber, and the system exhaust the used gas from the chamber. A radio-frequency power supply is connected to the first electrode, for supplying power between the electrodes to generate an electric field E. An annular magnet assembly is provided around the chamber, for generating a magnetic field B which has a central plane intersecting with the electric field E. The magnet assembly has a plurality of magnet elements which have different magnetization axes in the central plane of the magnetic field. Electrons drift due to a force resulting from an outer product (E.times.B) of the electric field E and the magnetic field B. The central plane of the magnetic field B is shifted upwards from the target surface of the wafer, such that the magnetic force lines of the magnetic field intersect with the target surface of the substrate.

    摘要: A magnetron discharge is generated by a high-frequency electric field and a magnetic field perpendicular to the electric field to generate a plasma of an etching gas, and an object to be processed having a silicon-containing layer represented by a polysilicon layer is exposed in the plasma to etch the silicon-containing layer. In this case, the etching gas mainly contains an HBr gas, a gas mixture of HBr and Cl.sub.2 gases, a gas mixture of HBr and HCl gases, or a gas obtained by adding an oxygen-containing gas such as an O.sub.2 gas to each of these gases.

And a method of processing substrates, comprising the steps of performing anisotropic etching treatment in a first chamber with respect to the substrates, and performing at least one of isotropic etching treatment and ashing treatment in a second chamber with respect to the substrates which have been subjected to the anisotropic etching treatment in the first chamber and have been kept unexposed to the atmosphere, the isotropic etching treatment and the ashing treatment being performed simultaneously or in succession.
