摘要： A substrate handler is provided. In one embodiment, the substrate handler includes a first and second carriage coupled to a rail. A first robot having at least two grippers is attached to the first carrier. A second robot having at least one gripper is coupled to the second carriage. The first carriage is independently positionable along the rail relative to the second carriage. As each carriage has a separate actuator, the movements of the first and second robot are decoupled, thereby allowing increased throughput. The substrate handler is particularly suitable for using in a planarization system having an integrated substrate cleaner.

摘要： A tool is provided to facilitate the assembly of a seal ring. The tool comprises an elongated body and a flange projecting radially from the elongated body. A first portion of the tool is configured to receive the placement of a seal ring and a retainer cap thereon. The retainer cap may carry attachment elements, such as screws, used to secure the retainer cap on the housing. To mount the seal ring, the tool is inserted through a shaft hole of the housing to clamp the seal ring and the retainer cap between the housing and a flange of the tool. The attachment elements then are tightened to fix the retainer cap on the housing, which secures the seal ring sandwiched between the retainer cap and the housing. After the assembly of the seal ring is completed, the tool may then be slidably removed.

摘要： We have discovered a method for plasma etching a carbon-containing silicon oxide film which provides excellent etch profile control, a rapid etch rate of the carbon/containing silicon oxide film, and high selectivity for etching the carbon-containing silicon oxide film preferentially to an overlying photoresist masking material. Then the method of the inention is used, a highter carbon content in the carbon/containing silicon oxide film results in a faster etch rate, at least up to ta carbon content of 20 atomic percent. In particular, the carbon-containgin silicon oxide film results in a faster etch rate, at least up to a carbon content of 20 atomic percent. In particular, the carbon containg silicon oxide film is plama etched using a plama generated from source gas comprising NH3 and CxFy. It is necessary to achieve the proper balance between the relative amounts of NH3 and CxFy in the plasma source gas in order to provide a balance between etch by/product polymer deposition and removal on various surfaces of the substrate being etched. The NH3 gas functions to "clean up" deposited polzmer on the photoresist surface, on the etched surface, and on process chamber surfaces. The atomic ratio of carbon: nitrogen in the plasma source gas typically ranges from about 0.3:1 to about 3:1. We have found that C2F6 and C4F8 provide excellent etch rates during etching of carbon-containing silicon oxide films.
摘要翻译：我们已经发现了一种用于等离子体蚀刻含碳氧化硅膜的方法，该方法提供了优异的蚀刻分布控制，含碳/氧化硅膜的快速蚀刻速率和用于将含碳氧化硅膜优先蚀刻成覆盖光刻胶掩模材料。然后使用该方法，含碳氧化硅膜中较高的碳含量导致较快的蚀刻速率，至少达到20原子百分比的ta含碳量。特别地，含碳的氧化硅膜导致更快的蚀刻速率，至少达到20原子百分比的碳含量。具体而言，使用由包含NH 3和C x F y的源气体产生的气泡对含碳的氧化硅膜进行蚀刻。有必要在等离子体源气体中的NH 3和C x F y的相对量之间达到适当的平衡，以便在蚀刻/产物聚合物沉积和去除被蚀刻衬底的各种表面之间提供平衡。 NH3气体的作用是“清理”光致抗蚀剂表面，蚀刻表面上和工艺室表面上沉积的抛光剂。等离子体源气体中碳：氮的原子比通常在约0.3:1至约3:1的范围内。我们发现C2F6和C4F8在含碳氧化硅膜的蚀刻过程中提供了优异的蚀刻速率。

摘要： In general, the present disclosure pertains to a method for removing photoresist from locations on a semiconductor structure where its presence is undesired. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed for descumming residual photoresist material from areas where it is not desired after patterning of the photoresist. In another embodiment, a misaligned patterned photoresist is stripped from a semiconductor susbtrate surface. In particular, the method comprises exposing the semiconductor structure to a plasma generated from a source gas comprising NH3. A substrate voltage is utilized in both methods in order to produce anisotropic etching. In the descumming embodiment, the critical dimensions of the patterned photoresist are maintained. In the photoresist stripping embodiment, a patterned photoresist is removed without adversely affecting a partially exposed underlaying layer of an organic dielectric.
