碳化硅裸片与碳化硅掩膜层刻蚀深度选择比预测方法Method for Predicting Etching Depth Selective Ratio of SiC Die and SiC Mask Layer

技术领域technical field

背景技术Background technique

等离子体刻蚀是去除材料表面物质的一种重要工艺过程。等离子体刻蚀过程可以具有化学选择性,即只从表面去除一种材料而不影响其他材料,也可以是各向异性的,即只去除沟槽底部的材料而不影响侧壁上同样的材料。Plasma etching is an important process for removing material surface substances. The plasma etch process can be either chemoselective, which removes only one material from the surface without affecting others, or anisotropic, which removes only material at the bottom of the trench without affecting the same material on the sidewalls .

由于刻蚀机理的研究是综合化学刻蚀与物理刻蚀的结果,单因素改变对刻蚀结果影响较大,又因为影响等离子体刻蚀工艺的因素众多,在芯片制造过程中,需要经历大量且复杂的工艺调试才能得到较理想的需要的等离子体刻蚀选择比,大幅度增加了工作人员的刻蚀调试负荷。Since the study of etching mechanism is the result of comprehensive chemical etching and physical etching, the change of a single factor has a great influence on the etching result, and because there are many factors affecting the plasma etching process, in the chip manufacturing process, a lot of experience is required. Moreover, the ideal plasma etching selection ratio can only be obtained through complex process debugging, which greatly increases the etching debugging load of the staff.
