Zusammenfassung: | PURPOSE:To avoid the deterioration of a device and improve a selectivity by a method wherein a radio frequency source whose frequency is lower than 13.86MHz is employed in a magnetically enhanced etching equipment in which a magnetic field is introduced into a radio frequency discharge. CONSTITUTION:When a radio frequency voltage is applied to a cathode 3 by a radio frequency source 6, an electric field is formed in the space between the cathode 3 and an anode 2 and a plasma is generated by a magnetic field produced by a magnet element 9. The frequency of the source 6 is higher than 800kHz and lower than 13.86MHz. In this process, a somewhat higher electric field is obtained on a cathode sheath than in a conventional process and the decomposition of CF system gas in the plasma near a wafer is promoted to produce carbon-rich fluorocarbon. With this constitution, the deterioration of the device can be avoided and a selectivity can be improved. |
