摘要
An ash process using atomic hydrogen which is generated by heated tungsten catalyzer (CAT-ASH) was characterized in terms of process-induced damage. Dielectric constant (k) was reduced after the CAT-ASH process with etched blanket low-k film. No sidewall damage layer was observed in the case of performing diluted HF dip experiment. Moreover, High (>90%) 200nm pitch via-chain yield was obtained compared to a conventional ash process.
