ETCH METHOD IN THE MANUFACTURE OF AN INTEGRATED CIRCUIT

摘要

The present invention provides a method for etching a substrate in the manufacture of a semiconductor device, the method comprising contacting a surface of the substrate with ions extracted from a plasma formed from a gas comprising one or more of an oxygen-containing species, a nitrogen-containing species and an inert gas, and separately contacting the surface of the substrate with a plasma formed from a gas comprising a fluorine-containing species.
