    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: In this etching method, since an etching gas is introduced before introduction of free radicals into a processing chamber, the etching gas has been adsorbed on the surface of substrates when the free radicals are introduced. Accordingly, the free radicals react with the etching gas adsorbed on the surface of the substrates, and the reaction proceeds uniformly on the surface of the substrate. As a result, nonuniform etching does not occur on the surface of the substrate. Moreover, since the reaction between the etching gas and the free radicals occurs on the surface of the substrate, an intermediate product produced according to the reaction between the etching gas and the free radicals reacts with an etching object promptly. Therefore, the intermediate product is not exhausted from the processing chamber 12 excessively, and hence the etching efficiency is high. As a result, according to this etching method, not only the in-plane distribution of the etching amount becomes more uniform, but also the etching rate is increased more than in the conventional etching method.
