Plasma Etching in Semiconductor Fabrication (Plasma Technology) Book

Hardbound. This book is based on a post-graduate study carried out by the author on plasma etching mechanisms of semiconductor materials such as silicon, silicon dioxide, photoresist and aluminium films used in integrated circuit fabrication. In this book he gives an extensive review of the chemistry of dry etching, sustaining mechanisms and reactor architecture. He also describes a study made on the measurement of the electrical characteristics and ionization conditions existing in a planar reactor. In addition, practical problems such as photoresist mask erosion have been investigated and the reader will find the photoresist chemistry very useful. The book contains a great deal of practical information on plasma etching processes. The electronics industry is continually seeking ways to improve the miniaturization of devices, and this account of the author's findings should be a useful contribution to the work of miniaturization.Read More
