Production of Fluorine-Containing Molecular Species in Plasma-Generated Atomic F Flows

Abstract: The fluorine atomic radical reactions to form molecular fluorine and hydrogen fluoride are examined by time-of-flight mass spectroscopy (TOFMS) and kinetically modeled for various reaction orders. Fluorine radicals are generated from NF 3 or F 2 in microwave-generated and low-frequency (LF)-generated plasmas and are passed through flow tubes under various flow, pressure, and dilution conditions. In general, the concentrations of the mass spectroscopically measured products F, F 2 , and HF do not depend on the … Show more

“…The proposed model was further validated using experimental results obtained by earlier researchers [20] who studied the fluorine recombination process through a cylindrical reactor with dimensions of 3.4 cm inner diameter and 30.5 cm length. These dimensions are drastically different from those used at APCI facility.…”

“…The remote plasma cleaning processes of the silicon dioxide and silicon nitride layers using PFCs such as C 2 F 6 , C 3 F 8 , C 4 F 8 , and NF 3 have been studied and used in the flat panel display (FPD) industry [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. The PFCs that are reemitted during chamber etching, however, are known to have a serious global warming effect in the atmosphere [10][11][12][13][14][15][20][21][22][23][24][25][26].…”

“…A primary objective in any plasma application, remote or direct, is the ability to deliver a desired stream of energized particles (ions and neutrals) from the plasma to the surface being processed. The segregation of high energy species away from delicate layers is often a goal of remote plasma processing, but an unfavorable consequence can be the loss of potentially desirable species, resulting from wall and volumetric interaction associated with delivery through some distance to the processing chamber [13,14].…”
