초록 We investigated selective dry etching of GaAs over AlGaAs and InGaP in high density planar inductively coupled BCl3/SF6 and BCl3/CF4 plasmas. The process parameters were ICP source power (0 - 500 W), RF chuck power (0 - 30 W) and gas composition (60 - 100% BCl3 in BCl3/SF6, BCl3/CF4). The process results were characterized in terms of etch rate, selectivities of GaAs over AlGaAs and InGaP, surface morphology, surface roughness and residues after etching. BCl3/SF6 and BCl3/CF4 selective etching of GaAs showed quite good results in this study. SF6 Plasma Selectivities of GaAs (GaAs : AlGaAs ~ 36 : 1, GaAs : InGaP ~ 45 : 1) were superior at BCl3/CF4 Plasma Selectivities of GaAs (GaAs : AlGaAs ~ 16 : 1, GaAs : InGaP ~ 38 : 1), 20W RF chuck power, 300W ICP source power and 7.5 mTorr.
Addition of (5 -15%)SF6 or (15%)CF4 to BCl3 produced relatively high selectivities of GaAs over AlGaAs and InGaP during etching due to decrease of etch rates of AlGaAs and InGaP. Specially addition over 67% CF4 present definitely low selectivities of GaAs over AlGaAs and InGaP. (boiling points of etch products: AlF3 ~ 1300℃, InF3 > 1200 ℃ at atmosphere) at the condition. SEM and AFM data showed slightly sloped sidewall and somewhat rough surface(BCl3/SF6 RMS ~ 9 nm, BCl3/CF4 RMS ~ 2 nm). It shows that planar inductively coupled F-based plasmas could be a good candidate for selective dry etching of GaAs over AlGaAs and InGaP
