Abstract
Anisotropic etching processes for mesa structure formation using fluorinated plasma atmospheres in an electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma etcher were studied on Novasic substrates with 10 μm thick 3C-SiC(100) grown on Si(100). To achieve reasonable etching rates, a special gas inlet system suitable for injecting SF6 into the high density downstream Ar ECR plasma was designed. The influence of the etching mask material on the sidewall morphology was investigated. Masking materials with small grain sizes are preferable to achieve a desired shape. The evolution of the mesa form was investigated in dependence on the gas composition, the applied bias, the pressure and the composition of the gas atmosphere. The achieved sidewall slope was 84.5 deg. The aspect ratios of the fabricated structures in the developed residue free ECR plasma etching process were between 5 and 10. Mesa structures aligned to [100] and [110] directions were fabricated.
