Abstract:
Disclosed is a multi-inductively coupled plasma reactor and method thereof. In a multi-inductively coupled plasma reacting method, an etching method to increase a specific portion of a substrate to be processed includes etching a specific portion of a substrate to be processed; and depositing a passivation layer on a surface of the specific portion etched, wherein the etching and depositing steps are repeatedly proceeded, and one of both steps is executed when there is plasma formed by a central plasma source and a peripheral plasma source. According to the multi-inductively coupled plasma reactor and method thereof of the invention, it is possible that plasma is uniformly processed on the entire area of the substrate since the central plasma source and the peripheral source are provided separately. Further, it is possible to form an independent multiple plasma area without electrical interference in the plasma reactor using the interference prevention electrode grounded between the central plasma source and the peripheral plasma source. Further, the plasma formed by the central plasma source and the peripheral plasma source is used to deeply etch a specific portion of the substrate to be processed.
Abstract:
A method of forming a metal layer pattern comprises forming an interlayer insulating layer on a semiconductor substrate, forming a metal layer on the interlayer insulating layer, forming a mask pattern to expose a predetermined area of the metal layer, and forming a metal layer pattern by dry etching the exposed predetermined area of the metal layer with a substrate bias power of about 5 W to about 40 W.
Abstract:
Provided is a plasma reactor having a dual inductively coupled plasma source that includes a plasma reactor body having a substrate processing area and a dielectric window which comes in contact with the substrate processing area; and a plasma source including a first antenna for providing first induced electromotive force for generating plasma onto a central area of the substrate processing area through the dielectric window and a second antenna for providing second induced electromotive force for generating the plasma onto an outer area of the substrate processing area, wherein a TSV is formed at a target substrate within the substrate processing area by repeatedly performing a deposition process and an etch process using the plasma generated through the dual inductively coupled plasma source.
