发明名称 Method of etching tungsten or tungsten nitride in semiconductor structures
摘要 The present invention relates to a method of etching tungsten or tungsten nitride in semiconductor structures. We have discovered a method of etching tungsten or tungsten nitride which permits precise etch profile control while providing a rapid etch rate. In particular, the method employs the use of a plasma source gas where the chemically functional etchant species are generated from a combination of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) and nitrogen (N2), where the sulfur hexafluoride and nitrogen are provided in a volumetric flow rate ratio within the range of about 1:2.5 to about 6:1.
