Zusammenfassung:FIELD: resistor and protective metal coating formation steps in integrated circuit manufacture. SUBSTANCE: method includes reactive ion-plasma etching process for Ta, TaN, and TaAl films in BCl3-Cl2-CCl4-N2 plasma including additional etching of residues of these films on embossed surface in CF4-O2 or SF6-O2 plasma. EFFECT: reduced scatter of resistor ratings and dimensions of circuit components. 2 cl
