Title:
SILICON ETCHING METHOD, AND MANUFACTURE OF CCD SOLID IMAGE PICKUP DEVICE USING THIS METHOD
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3419590
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To lessen the decrease of the film thickness of a base insulating film by performing etching until the insulating layer under a silicon film is just exposed, and further, performing etching in condition that high frequency power is decreased, and further, performing etching in condition that high frequency power is increased.
CONSTITUTION: At the first step, the step is finished at the point of time of just etching when a polysilicon film 10 is etched off. Next, at the second step, high-frequency power is decreased. At the third step, high frequency power is increased more than that at the second step. This way, the accelerated etching of a silicon nitride film 9 can be prevented by providing the second step where the high-frequency power is decreased as compared with the first step while silicon halide generated by the etching of the polysilicon film 10 remains in large quantity in plasma.
