HIGH SELECTIVITY, LOW STRESS, AND LOW HYDROGEN DIAMOND-LIKE CARBON HARDMASKS BY HIGH POWER PULSED LOW FREQUENCY RF

HIGH SELECTIVITY, LOW STRESS, AND LOW HYDROGEN DIAMOND-LIKE CARBON HARDMASKS BY HIGH POWER PULSED LOW FREQUENCY RF

Provided herein are methods and related apparatus for depositing an ashable hard mask (AHM) on a substrate by pulsing a low frequency radio frequency component at a high power. Pulsing low frequency power may be used to increase the selectivity or reduce the stress of an AHM. The AHM may then be use...

Zusammenfassung:Provided herein are methods and related apparatus for depositing an ashable hard mask (AHM) on a substrate by pulsing a low frequency radio frequency component at a high power. Pulsing low frequency power may be used to increase the selectivity or reduce the stress of an AHM. The AHM may then be used to etch features into underlying layers of the substrate.
