摘要： A plasma etch process for etching a porous carbon-doped silicon oxide dielectric layer using a photoresist mask is carried out first in an etch reactor by performing a fluorocarbon based etch process on the workpiece to etch exposed portions of the dielectric layer while depositing protective fluorocarbon polymer on the photoresist mask. Then, in an ashing reactor, polymer and photoresist are removed by heating the workpiece to over 100 degrees C., exposing a peripheral portion of the backside of said workpiece, and providing products from a plasma of a hydrogen process gas to reduce carbon contained in polymer and photoresist on said workpiece until the polymer has been removed from a backside of said workpiece. The process gas preferably contains both hydrogen gas and water vapor, although the primary constituent is hydrogen gas. The wafer (workpiece) backside may be exposed by extending the wafer lift pins.

摘要： A conventional plasma etch chamber is modified to reduce particulate generation in the chamber that contaminates the chamber and substrates mounted on a pedestal support being processed therein. A clamping ring cover in the chamber is made of ceramic. Grooves are machined into the cover and metal antennas can be mounted in the grooves to act as a getter for particles and pre-particle, non-volatile contaminants in the chamber. The clamping ring for the substrate being processed is also made of ceramic. Fewer particles are generated by ion bombardment using ceramic versus prior art clamping rings made of aluminum. Further, the cylinder clamping ring support which surrounds the pedestal support is fitted with a plurality of openings or windows to allow escape of purge gases that carry particles through the windows and into the adjoining exhaust system of the chamber and thus also away from the substrate being processed. Markedly fewer particles are deposited onto substrates using the modified plasma etch chamber of the invention than was found for unmodified chambers.
