ABSTRACT:
A method for etching. The etching process is to form an opening within the material layer on the substrate and then form a patterned layer on the material layer. An etching gas, an inert gas/hydrogen and an inert gas are pumped into the chamber. The inert gas is used to decrease the surface temperature of the patterned layer and a polymer thin film layer can be formed easily on the surface of the patterned layer. The opening is then formed by defining the material layer with the patterned layer. In addition, the thin film can not be formed on the bottom of the opening by raising the temperature of the substrate.
