Selective etching of organosilicate films over silicon oxide stop etch layers

A method of selectively etching organosilicate layers in integrated circuit fabrication processes is disclosed. The organosilicate layers are selectively etched using a hydrogen-containing fluorocarbon gas. The hydrogen-containing fluorocarbon gas may be used to selectively etch an organosilicate la...

Zusammenfassung:A method of selectively etching organosilicate layers in integrated circuit fabrication processes is disclosed. The organosilicate layers are selectively etched using a hydrogen-containing fluorocarbon gas. The hydrogen-containing fluorocarbon gas may be used to selectively etch an organosilicate layer formed on a silicon oxide stop etch layer when fabricating a damascene structure.
