Zusammenfassung: | A substrate processing apparatus performs a method of etching a substrate that includes etching the substrate to form a first portion of a recess in the substrate, the first portion of the recess including a bottom surface and a sidewall. The method also includes forming an ammonium fluorosilicate (AFS) layer in or on the sidewall, and then etching the bottom surface to form a second portion of the recess. The etching the bottom surface is performed while maintaining protection of the sidewall with the AFS layer. |
