極(6)の裏側に非接触の状態で配置されている。Prior Art and Its Problems In recent years, integrated circuits have become increasingly finer, and even OL8I prototypes with minimum dimensions of 1 to 2 μm have been produced. For this microfabrication, a reactive gas such as CF4 is introduced into a reaction vessel that normally has parallel plate electrodes, and a shiburo discharge is generated by applying high frequency power (for example, 1336 MHz) to the electrode on which the sample is placed. Positive ions in the plasma are accelerated by the cathode drop voltage (hereinafter referred to as WOE) generated on the surface of the cathode (electrode to which high-frequency power is applied), and the ions are directly incident on the sample to cause an etching reaction. Reactive ion etching

In RIM using parallel plate electrodes, for example, CF4 +
Nine sio! using Hl gas! The etching rate is at most 300-400λ/min, and the
It takes about 40 minutes to etch io, and in terms of productivity, this extremely low etch/etch rate is about 10 minutes.
001/min for several tens of minutes for a thickness of 1 μm, or for I'LIg of phosphorous-doped poly-8t, C
Using BrF3 (+C1*) gas, the etching rate is 5001/min, which is 8 minutes for a thickness of 40001 and 8 Ioz II, but it is relatively low and is desired similarly to these fast etching blowfish 4. . To improve the etching speed, for example, increasing the RF power may improve the etching speed somewhat, but the loss due to the conversion of the reverse KRP power into heat will increase the deterioration and deterioration of the photoresist, resulting in a The increase in K of v and c also results in more damage to the device. Therefore, the current situation is to reduce the RF power as much as possible even at the expense of rounding and etching speed to avoid these problems. The essential cause of this is that in glow discharge caused by RF,
Low efficiency Φ-m where the ionization efficiency of introduced gas is less than 1%
That's the point. In contrast, the present inventors have recently
Instead of F glow discharge, a magnetic field generating means made of a permanent magnet is provided under the RF applied electrode, and a magnetic field orthogonal to the electric field due to kLi' electric power is created to cause electrons to drift in the (electric field) x (magnetic field) direction. We proposed a nine-do-two etching device using magnetron discharge, which improves discharge efficiency by moving electrons and making the electron orbits a closed circuit to promote collisional dissociation between electrons and gas molecules. Nine. (For example, see Japanese Patent Application No. 55-173821 S$ 3rd Dry Process Symposium, P, 69, 1981. Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan, etc.)
An example of the device will be explained in FIG. In the figure, (1) is a permanent magnet, which is placed in a non-contact manner on the back side of the cathode (6) of the device O to be etched, which is made of a non-magnetic material and is connected to the high frequency power (3).

41, the air is exhausted. With such a device configuration, the DC electric field IN on the cathode (6) generated by the high-frequency power applied via the matching circuit and the magnetic field IB generated by the permanent magnet +1) are orthogonal to each other. Furthermore, it is possible to scan the very high-density inetron discharge region (8) generated by the action of this orthogonal electromagnetic field on the object to be etched. In addition, it becomes possible to process and etch with good uniformity.For example, in the case of sio, CHF3/

A selectivity ratio of >20 was obtained. As explained above, by using the device shown in Figure 1, high speed and
Selective etching of the underlying material has become possible; however, the following important facts have been discovered regarding the achievement of anisotropic etching when magnetron discharge is applied. That is, in the magnetron discharge mentioned above, r
As a result of intensive research by the present inventors, the mode shown in Fig. 2(a) (accompanied by strong excitation light ) The region of large discharge occurs near the discharge path α force directly above the N-8 gap in Fig. 1) is more likely to appear as the RF power is larger and the pressure is lower, and the etching shape at that time is as follows. As shown in the figure, it is an anisotropic etching with a sharp etching bell, but the excitation light of the discharge is weaker than in the mode (a). , the discharge area is Ql (as seen in IIJ, discharge path 117)
It was found that complete isotropic etching was obtained (occurring around the periphery of P-doped polycrystalline silicon/(a) and AS02(b) with C12 simple gas.
This figure shows the etching rate versus pressure. As a result, the etching rate of 8i02 increases with increasing pressure K(
It can be seen that although the ion energy decreases monotonically, the etching rate of P-doped polycrystalline silicon increases 9, reaching a maximum value just at the transition point of the discharge mode. Ta. Therefore, P-Silicone polycrystalline silicon/840. For rounding to maximize the selection ratio, it is necessary to perform the etching near the 4th transition point of the mode.

For example, pressure fluctuations due to temperature rises in the substrate during etching or in the positive and negative regions (which is caused when secondary electrons are accelerated by the opposite electric field on the surface of the cathode 11 and collide with the anode) An abrupt inter-mode transition (from a to b) may occur, thus resulting in isotropic etching.

For example, the tip of the optical fiber (c) guides the light from the area through the optical fiber to the monochromator,
The state of discharge can be measured by selecting light of a predetermined wavelength and connecting it to a photomultiplier, a signal amplifier, and a recording needle. Figure 5 shows the measurement of light at the wavelength of Ar (75041) with respect to pressure fluctuations when 1% 11C, C12KAr was actually introduced, and the pressure at the start of discharge was 0.1T.
As the pressure increases from orr, the light intensity caused by Ar decreases rapidly and reaches a constant value of l around 0.2 Torr. This spectrum III change is consistent with the observation result of the mode transition mentioned above, and in the figure, 1 in humans.
A constant spectral intensity corresponds to light leakage from a relatively high pressure mode. For example, by etching phosphorus 0 or doped polycrystal 7 li/1 and examining the relationship between the etching shape and the Ar (7504λ) spectrum intensity in detail, the relative intensity of the Ar spectrum can be It has become clear that an angle cut occurs at approximately V2 (b) of the value in Figure 2 (1) mode). FIG. 6 is a block diagram, and (to) the etching device shown in FIG.
(to) is the exhaust means, (2) is the variable conductance pulp whose opening area changes as shown in Fig. 1 a$, and (to) is the light 7.
A large spectroscope is connected to the IPA, Oυ is a storage device, gradient is a matching circuit, and (to) is a high frequency power. 9. (to) is a mass flow controller for the gas introduced into the vacuum container (to), and the gas flow rate is always kept constant by this mass flow controller. A relationship Q=SP exists between the gas flow rate Q, the effective pumping speed S1 of the pumping means (toward), and the pressure 20 in the vacuum vessel at that time. Therefore, pressure fluctuations due to any cause will change the effective pumping speed, but
As shown in Figure 5, when the relative directivity of the light intensity spectrum at wavelength 7so4N due to an inert gas, for example Ar, added at the same time as the reactive gas, the variable conductance If a negative feedback signal is sent to the pulp to further open the valve, the pressure inside the vacuum container Pt11 is kept constant, thus preventing the gas pressure from increasing and achieving anisotropic etching. The variable conductance command is issued in advance from a storage device into which the data shown in FIG. 5 is input.

同様の結果が得られ九。The reason why the present invention does not track the wavelength of light related to the reactive gas that is directly involved in etching the object to be etched is that the relative intensity of the reactive gas changes as the etching reaction progresses. It is difficult to be affected by this. In this example, the case of Ar was explained, but similar results were obtained with other inert gases such as He and Ne.
