Research Abstract |
Narrow Gap Reactive Ion Etcher, widely used in the industry, has been investigated for the structure and function over 1 MHz<f<100 MHz and 0.05<f<1.0 Torr from the viewpoints of a non-equilibrium plasma physics. (1) It is found from STROES that the local instantaneous peaks of the ion/radical production appears just in front of the instantaneous anode. This is the key mechanism to controll the N-gap-RIE. (2) The spatiotemporal structure of an ideal N-gap-RIE with parallel plate geometry is studied using numerical simulations by a relaxation continuum model. It is demonstsated that the production peaks, experimentally observed, result from the double layr formation in negative ion plasmas, employed in dry etching. (3) Plasma density, net production rate and dissipated power increase in proportion to the square of driving frequency. (4) The particle growth/transport in plasma processing is simulated in an ideal case of CF_2in non-reactive Ar, rf plasma. The correlation between the spatiotemporal plasma structure and the particle growth/decay is clarified both by STROES and RCT model.
