*Removing the H2 from the recipe to get less redeposition at lower platen power (200W), EM:02/30A. Se result below. This gave significantly lower etch rate and no etching in the smallest openings. | |||

I | I was starting up development of SiO2 etch using aSi as masking material. This is on pause because the results did not look promishing on high aspect ratio structures wit DUV pattern due to large faceting on the aSi mask. I turned to Cr mask instead <br> | ||

When testing with decreased platen power on the SiO2_10 standard recipe the uniformity got very bad. I then tested with the electromagnetics coil to see if that could affect the uniformity. There is an outer coil that can be varied between 0 A and 10 A and an inner coil that can be varied between 0 A and 30 A. The first tests were done on Si/SiO2(1µm) without pattern and measured on the ellipsometer. | When testing with decreased platen power on the SiO2_10 standard recipe the uniformity got very bad.
