摘要: A method of etching an oxide layer is disclosed. First, a resist formed on substrate. Next, photosensitive the and patterned to expose regions be removed. The exposed may overlie nitride layer, structure such as polysilicon gate. etch performed that polymer deposits thus eliminating interactions between plasma. In this way, simple process allows for good control etch, resulting in reduced aspect ratio dependent effects, high oxide:nitride selectivity, wall angle profile control.
