Ion- and electron-assisted gas-surface chemistry—An important effect in plasma etching

Coburn, J. W., Winters, Harold F.·1979·Journal of Applied Physics

Abstract

The extent to which gas-surface chemical reactions can be enhanced by energetic radiation (primarily ions and electrons) incident on the surface is described. Emphasis is placed on chemical systems which lead to volatile reaction products. In particular, the reactions of Si, SiO2, and Si3N4 with XeF2, F2, and Cl2 are examined experimentally. Possible mechanisms for the radiation-induced enhancement are discussed and some technological implications of this process in plasma etching technology and lithography are considered.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
