Abstract

We investigated the etch rate of SiO$_2$ in E-ICP, ICP system and the addition gas (O$_2$H$_2$) effect on SiO$_2$ etch characteristics. In all conditions, E-ICP shows higher etch rate than ICP. Small amount of O$_2$ addition increase F atom and O$\^$*/ concentration. at optimized condition (30% O$_2$ in CF$_4$, 70Hz) E-ICP system shows highest etch rate (about 6000${\AA}$). H$_2$addition in CF$_4$ Plasma make abrupt decrease Si etch rate and moderate decrease SiO$_2$ etch rate.
