Abstract: A method for etching a feature in a low-k dielectric layer through a photoresist etch mask over a substrate. A gas-modulated cyclic stripping process is performed for more than three cycles for stripping a single photoresist mask. Each cycle of the gas-modulated cyclic stripping process comprises performing a protective layer formation phase and a stripping phase. The protective layer forming phase using first gas chemistry with a deposition gas chemistry, wherein the protective layer forming phase is performed in about 0.005 to 10 seconds for each cycle. The performing the stripping phase for stripping the photoresist mask using a second gas chemistry using a stripping gas chemistry, where the first gas chemistry is different than the second gas chemistry, wherein the etching phase is performed in about 0.005 to 10 seconds for each cycle.

Abstract: A method for etching a high aspect ratio feature through a mask into a layer to be etched over a substrate is provided. The substrate is place (404) in a process chamber, which is able to provide RF power at a first frequency, a second frequency different than the first frequency, and a third frequency different than the first and second frequency. An etchant gas is provided (408) to the process chamber. A first etch step is provided (412) where the first frequency, the second frequency, and the third frequency are at power settings for the first etch step. A second etch step is provided (416), where the first frequency, the second frequency, and the third frequency are at a different power setting. Optionally, a third etch step may also be provided (420).

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for ascertaining the end of an etch process while etching through a target layer on a substrate in a plasma processing system which employs an electrostatic chuck. The end of the etch process is ascertained by monitoring the electric potential of the substrate to detect a pattern indicative of the end of the etch process. By the way of example, changes to this potential may be observed by monitoring the current flowing to the pole of the electrostatic chuck. Upon ascertaining the pattern indicative of the end of the etch process, for example by monitoring the current signal, a control signal is produced to terminate the etch. If a bias compensation power supply is provided to keep the currents flowing to the poles of the electrostatic chuck substantially equal but opposite in sign throughout the etch, the compensation voltage output by the bias compensation power supply may be monitored for the aforementioned pattern indicative of the end of the etch process in order to terminate the etch.

Abstract: A method of etching a semiconductor wafer including injecting a source gas mixture into a process chamber including injecting the source gas mixture into a multiple hollow cathode cavities in a top electrode of the process chamber and generating a plasma in each one of the hollow cathode cavities. Generating the plasma in the hollow cathode cavities includes applying a first biasing signal to the hollow cathode cavities. The generated plasma or activated species is output from corresponding outlets of each of the hollow cathode cavities into a wafer processing region in the process chamber. The wafer processing region Is located between the outlets of the hollow cathode cavities and a surface to be etched. An etchant gas mixture is injected into the wafer processing region. A plasma can also be supported and/or generated in the wafer processing region.
