LNF_Poly is designed for etching Si and Polysilicon in the LAM 9400. This recipe produces a very vertical sidewall angle and has a high selectively to oxide (~18:1).

Etch Rates

  • Polysilicon - 2340 Å/min (blanket 150mm poly)
  • Si - 2800 Å/min (<10% open area)
  • SPR 220 (3.0) - 275 Å/min
  • SiO2 - 150 Å/min

Parameters

Parameter Breakthrough Main Etch
Time 10 sec variable
Pressure 5 mTorr 30 mTorr
TCP Power 300 W 600 W
Bias Power 100 W 90 W
Cl2 Flow 60 sccm 0 sccm
HBr Flow 0 sccm 100 sccm
He Flow 0 sccm 100 sccm

Sidewall Profile

  • Nearly a 90 degree sidewall angle

Limitations

To remove the photoresist a ~20 sec dip in 100:1 HF is necessary before nanostrip.
