    • An improved vacuum plasma etching device for plasma etching semiconductor wafers that have a photo-resist pattern. The improved plasma etching device has a reaction chamber in which the plasma etching is performed during a process cycle, an entrance vacuum loadlock for holding the next semiconductor wafer to be plasma etched, an exit vacuum loadlock for transporting the semiconductor wafers out of the reaction chamber after the plasma etching process, and a source of ultraviolet light. Exposing the semiconductor wafer to the ultraviolet light cures the photo-resist patterns, thereby improving CD dispersion, enhancing pattern transfer, and preventing photo-resist reticulation. Curing the photo-resist patterns while the semiconductor wafer is being held during the process cycle in the entrance vacuum loadlock, increases efficiency and productivity.

    • A method is provided for forming an isolation structure at a semiconducting surface of a body, and the isolation structure formed thereby. A masking layer is formed over selected regions of the substrate surface; the masking layer preferably comprising a nitride layer overlying a pad oxide layer. The masking layer is patterned and etched to form openings exposing selected regions of the substrate surface. Recesses are formed into the substrate in the openings. Preferably a portion of the pad oxide layer is isotropically etched under the nitride layer forming an undercut region. An etch stop layer is formed over the substrate in the recesses filling in the undercut along the sidewalls. A second masking layer, preferably of nitride is formed over the etch stop layer and anisotropically etched to form nitride sidewalls in the openings. The etch stop layer may be etched away from the horizontal surfaces. The substrate in the openings is then oxidized to form a field oxide region substantially coplanar with the original substrate surface.
    • 提供了一种用于在主体的半导体表面形成隔离结构的方法,以及由此形成的隔离结构。 在衬底表面的选定区域上形成掩模层; 掩模层优选地包括覆盖衬垫氧化物层的氮化物层。 对掩模层进行图案化和蚀刻以形成露出衬底表面的选定区域的开口。 凹口在开口中形成在基底中。 优选地,衬垫氧化物层的一部分在形成底切区域的氮化物层下被各向同性地蚀刻。 在沿着侧壁填充在底切中的凹部中的衬底上形成蚀刻停止层。 在蚀刻停止层上方形成优选氮化物的第二掩蔽层,并进行各向异性蚀刻以在开口中形成氮化物侧壁。 蚀刻停止层可以从水平表面被蚀刻掉。 然后将开口中的衬底氧化以形成与原始衬底表面基本上共面的场氧化物区域。
