Bevel metal removal using ion beam etch
Abstract:
Form a metallized layer at a top surface of a semiconductor wafer. The metallized layer includes a bottom contact and a dielectric barrier surrounding the bottom contact. Deposit a memory stack layer onto the metallized layer. The memory stack layer forms a first overspill on a bevel of the wafer. Remove the first overspill from the bevel using a first high-angle ion beam during a cleanup etch.
