AbstractEtch rates up to 7,000Å/min. for GaN are obtained in Cl2/H2/Ar or BCl3/Ar ECR discharges at 1–3mTorr and moderate dc biases. Typical rates with HI/H2 are about a factor of three lower under the same conditions, while CH4/H2 produces maximum rates of only ˜2000Å/min. The role of additives such as SF6, N2, H2 or Ar to the basic chlorine, bromine, iodine or methane-hydrogen plasma chemistries are discussed. Their effect can be either chemical ( in forming volatile products with N) or physical ( in breaking bonds or enhancing desorption of the etch products). The nitrides differ from conventional III-V's in that bondbreaking to allow formation of the etch products is a critical factor. Threshold ion energies for the onset of etching of GaN, InGaN and InAlN are ≥75eV.

ABSTRACTA precursor for the LPCVD of silicon oxide films has been developed that extends the low temperature deposition range to 100°C. The chemical, 1,4 disilabutane (DSB), produces silicon oxide depositions similar to those of the higher temperature silane and diethylsilane (DES) processes. Optimum DSB processes require pressures below 300 mTorr, similar to silane, in contrast to DES pressures above 600 mTorr at 350°C. This results in poorer conformalities than those of DES, but the step coverages are still superior to those from silane oxides. The DSB films are low stress, carbon-free oxide layers that are suitable for temperature-sensitive underlayers and substrates such as photoresist, plastics, GaAs, and HgCdTe.
