Problems solved by technology

Therefore, the efficiency of the current warm-up process is low, which not only reduces the use efficiency of plasma processing equipment, but also consumes more process gas, photoresist foil and electric energy when implementing the warm-up process, which increases production costs

Embodiment Construction

[0029] In order to make those skilled in the art better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the warm-up method provided by the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] In this embodiment, an inductively coupled plasma etching process is used to etch a photoetched substrate, and the substrate may be a silicon wafer or other materials such as sapphire. Before etching the substrate, a warm-up process is performed to make the environment inside the chamber reach the working state required for etching the substrate. Moreover, since the substrate is covered by photoresist, forming a polymer close to the composition of the photoresist on the inner wall of the chamber is conducive to improving the selectivity of etching, that is, covering the surface of the inner lining of the chamber with a polymer can make The environment inside the chamber reaches the working state required for etching the subs...

Abstract

The invention provides a seasoning method and an etching method. The seasoning method, which is used for forming a polymer on the inner wall of a chamber in a seasoning process so as to enable the chamber to reach a working state required by the process, comprises the following steps: filling gases containing carbon and hydrogen into the chamber; motivating the gases containing carbon and hydrogen into a plasma body; and depositing a polymer layer on the inner wall of the chamber by utilizing the plasma body containing carbon and hydrogen. With the seasoning method, the time of the seasoning process can be reduced, the efficiency of the seasoning process is improved; besides, the cost of the seasoning process can be reduced, and the production cost of the whole etching process can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of semiconductor processing equipment, and relates to a warm-up method and an etching method for an etching process. Background technique [0002] In the Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) etching process, the warm-up (Season) step is an important process step, the purpose of which is to maintain the stability of the etching chamber and the uniformity of the process . For new chambers (Chamber) that have never been used, chambers after periodic maintenance (PM), and chambers that have been idle (Idle) for a long time, warm-up processing is required to improve the stability and stability of the machine. Uniformity between slices. [0003] For the LED-ICP etching process, the warm-up process is particularly important. Experiments show that, compared with chambers treated by warm-up process, the chamber without warm-up process has a 50% lower selection ratio and about 30% lower etching rate. This is due to the fact tha...
