Barc Etch

Etching barc with a dedicated recipe for barc etching is a good idea if you are on the limit of having enough DUV resist mask to reach etch depth you need.Here is an example of a barc etch I have started testing.

Parameter	Barc etch with CF4	Barc etch with O2
Coil power	800W	150w
Platen power	100W	15W
Pressure	3 mTorr	5mTorr
Flow rate CF4	4 sccm
Flow rate H2	20sccm
Flow rate O2		20sccm

Parameter	Results with 'Barc etch with CF'	Results with 'Barc etch with O2'
Etch rate in barc	52 nm in 30s [bghe 20150519]	62 nm in 50s [bghe 20150521]
Etch rate in KRF resist	27 nm in 30s [bghe 20150519]	73 nm in 50s [bghe 20150521]
Selectivity KRF:Barc	1:2	1:0.8
Etch 65nm barc	Use 40-45s	Use 55-60s
