Download or read book Plasma Etching of the Group III Nitrides written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In reactive ion etching (RIE) of GaN, the ion bombardment can damage the material, so it is necessary to develop plasma etch processes. This paper reports etching of GaN in an ECR (electron cyclotron resonance) etch system using both the ECR/RIE mode and the RIE-only mode. Group III (Ga, In, Al) nitride ECR etching is reviewed as a function of plasma chemistry, power, temperature, and pressure; as the ECR microwave power increased, the ion density and etch rates increased, with the etch rate increasing the most for InN. GaN etch rates> 6500 Å/min have been observed in the ECR/RIE mode. 2 figs, 6 refs.

Download or read book Inductively coupled Plasma Reactive Ion Etching ICP RIE with HBR and Other Etch Chemistries of SI SIGE based Resonant Interband Tunnel Diodes Grown by Low Temperature Molecular Beam Epitaxy LT MBE written by Si-Young Park and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) forecasts that current semiconductor technology based on the mainstream silicon CMOS platform is approaching its scaling of limit. One emerging technology which may augment CMOS and extend its operational lifetime is tunneling devices together with transistors. Tunnel diode based circuits have superior performance regarding high speed operation concurrently with low power consumption. Si-based resonant interband tunnel diodes (RITD) developed by this research group that are grown epitaxially using low temperature molecular beam epitaxy (LT-MBE), now enable monolithic integration with Si CMOS and SiGe technology. This thesis focuses on the study of the plasma damage from inductively- coupled plasma reactive ion etching (ICP-RIE) processes using several different process gases, various ICP powers and substrate bias powers compared to wet etching techniques on Si-based diodes grown using low temperature molecular beam epitaxial (LT-MBE). Of particular interest and promise is an HBr etch chemistry that provides hydrogen passivation while etching. The minimization from incident ion damage and residual surface contamination during dry plasma etching is one of the key issues in modern VLSI manufacturing, especially as transistors/devices are scaled to below 50 nm lengths. Many researchers, therefore, are still developing many advanced techniques to reduce and minimize plasma damage created by dry plasma etching process.
