A method and system for trimming a feature on a substrate is described. During a chemical treatment of the substrate, the substrate is exposed to a gaseous chemistry, such as HF/NH<SUB>3</SUB>, under controlled conditions including surface temperature and gas pressure. An inert gas is also introduced, and the flow rate of the inert gas is selected in order to affect a target trim amount during the trimming of the feature. |
