From the plots of (α- η)/N, we have derived the limiting field strength, (E/N)nm, which is valid for the analysis of insulation characteristics and applications to power equipment. Comparisons of the electron swarms parameters between CHF3 and CFa have been performed, and the global warming potential (GWP) is also taken into account.展开更多

When working under standard low-pressure (20mtorr) etching conditions, a novel etch roughening phenomenon has been observed in the plasma, that is, the roughness of the etched front surface increases with the amount of material etched, independent of etch rate, RF power, and gas composition. Besides, the etched underlying side wall will be tapered as the upper SU-8 resist pattern degradation transfers downward. A process using double-layered mask, consisting of SU-8 resist and thin Chromium film, was developed for improving the side wall smoothness. Based on the studies, SiO2/Si channel waveguides with the propagation loss less than 0. 07dB/cm were fabricated at last.展开更多

These films were deposited by ECR plasma Reactor with CHF3 and C6H6 mixture as source gas. The effects of microwave power, pressure and CHF3/C6H6 ratios on the film deposition rates have been investigated. The fluorocarbon and hydrocarbon radical species in the plasma discharges were analyzed by using the optical emission spectra. It demonstrates that CF2, CF and CH radicals play the important roles in the films being formed.展开更多
