Experiments done with the TDESC electrode that we installed in 2010 (by Roy and Berit)
After changing the electrode to the TDESC type we got a lot of issues with trenching during the acceptance test. After doing a lot of experiments and optimization it turned out that this was probably do to a bad resist profile. We used a negative resist and the problems were gone. Here I show some of the results we got during this optimization.
Conclusions
- Very important to have a good resist profile before etch.
- Trenching and rounded corners can be controlled with coil and platen power.
- H2 does not have much influence (expected to have influence on the SiO2:Si selectivity)
- C4F8 flow has a influence on the profile and on the aspect ratio dependent etch - keep it low.
- Pressure does not show much influence
- This is the resist mask profile before etching
- Variation of Platen power at coil power 1300W, no H2 and C4F8 at 10sccm
- Variation of Platen power and He flow at coil power 1600W, no H2 and C4F8 at 10sccm
- Variation of Platen power and He flow at coil power 1000W, no H2 and C4F8 at 10sccm
- Variation of He flow and pressure at coil power 1000W and platen power 180W (He: 174sccm - pressure: 4mTorr), no H2 and C4F8 at 10sccm
- Variation of C4F8 flow at coil power 1000W and platen power 180W, He: 300sccm, pressure: 4mTorr), no H2
- Negative mask
