SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SEMICONDUCTOR ETCHING

A method is provided. The method includes etching a substrate to form a recess in the substrate through a plurality of stages. A first one of the plurality of stages forms an inhibitor layer lining an initial portion of the recess based on first etchant radicals. A second one of the plurality of sta...

Zusammenfassung:A method is provided. The method includes etching a substrate to form a recess in the substrate through a plurality of stages. A first one of the plurality of stages forms an inhibitor layer lining an initial portion of the recess based on first etchant radicals. A second one of the plurality of stages exposes the initial portion of the recess based on ions. A third one of the plurality of stages extends the initial portion of the recess based on second etchant radicals.
