“…Instead, chamber condition for plasma enhanced CVD are reached and deposition of SiO 2 occurs. A similar effect has been observed in [7]. For a process without parasitic deposition (O 2 flow of 4 sccm, chamber pressure of 12 mTorr), a selectivity of 100:1 is achieved.…”

“…SOI technology for multi-gate CMOS, however, results in a three-dimensional topography and therefore imposes new challenges for reactive ion etch (RIE) processes. In detail, an extremely high etch selectivity of polysilicon gates over thin gate oxides has to be achieved while maintaining anisotropic profiles [6][7][8][9].…”

“…This is caused by the incident ions scattered from the sheath and the mask edge. To reduce this phenomenon, trench etching was performed by using Cl 2 as the plasma-activating gas in an HBr base, which rarely causes spontaneous etching (Tuda et al, 2001). A hard mask was used for deep trench silicon etching.…”

“…New CD tips are in development in order to succeed in measuring spaced lines below 70 nm very soon. Dense lines measurements are very useful to clearly understand the microloading effect16,17,18 which occurs during etching processes or to estimate the in homogeneity of lithography processes in dense lines due for example to backscattering electrons during E-Beam exposure19,20 . Dense lines measurements : a-X-SEM front view; b-CD AFM scan line -Advanced lithography By using HSQ E-Beam resist, we are able to obtain isolated line of around 20 nm (cf.…”
