Title:
IN-SITU-ETCH-ASSISTED HDP DEPOSITION USING SIF4 AND HYDROGEN
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2005024094
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A process is provided for depositing an undoped silicon oxide film on a substrate disposed in a process chamber. A process gas that includes SiF4, H2, a silicon source, and an oxidizing gas reactant is flowed into the process chamber. A plasma having an ion density of at least 10<11> ions/cm<3> is formed from the process gas. The undoped silicon oxide film is deposited over the substrate with the plasma using a process that has simultaneous deposition and sputtering components. A temperature of the substrate during such depositing is greater than 450 °C.
