<p>A plasma is used in conjunction with a plasma assisted chemical etching material removal tool 10 to rapidly and precisely polish and smooth a substrate without mechanically contacting the surface. The pressure of a process gas, which disassociates into reactive plasma species in the presence of an applied radio frequency field, is controlled so as to allow the selection of a primarily unidirectional or a primarily omnidirectional polishing and smoothing mechanism. <IMAGE></p> |
