发明名称 Method for selective oxide removal
摘要 A method for removing oxide selective to a material comprising at least silicon and at least nitrogen is disclosed, the method comprising providing in a reactor a structure having a surface comprising a region, wherein said region comprises a material comprising at least silicon and at least nitrogen, providing on said structure an oxide layer overlying at least a part of said region, and removing said oxide layer selective to said material by etching, thereby exposing at least a part of said at least overlaid part of said region, wherein said etching is done only by providing an etchant gas comprising boron, whereby a voltage bias lower than 30 V is applied to the structure.

主权项 1. A method for removing oxide selectively to a material comprising at least silicon and at least nitrogen, the method comprising: (a) providing in a reactor a structure having a surface comprising a region, wherein said region comprises a material comprising at least silicon and at least nitrogen; (b) providing on said structure an oxide layer overlying at least a part of said region; and (c) removing said oxide layer selective to said material by etching, thereby exposing at least a part of said at least overlaid part of said region, wherein said etching is performed with an etchant gas comprising boron in the presence of a voltage bias lower than 30 V that is applied to the structure.
