- This article reports a study carried out on a model-based analysis of the etch mechanism for Zr O2 thin films in a B Cl3 He inductively coupled plasma. It was found that an increase in the He mixing ratio at a fixed gas pressure and input power results in an increase in the Zr O2 etch rate, which changes from 36 to 57 nmmin for 0-83% He. Langmuir probe diagnostics and zero-dimensional plasma modeling indicated that both plasma parameters and active species kinetics were noticeably influenced by the initial composition of the B Cl3 He mixture, resulting in the nonmonotonic or nonlinear behaviors of species densities. Using the model-based analysis of etch kinetics, it was demonstrated that the behavior of the Zr O2 etch rate corresponds to the ion-flux-limited etch regime of the ion-assisted chemical reaction. © 2008 American Vacuum Society.
