  • Abstract
    In UV-excited F2+H2 dry cleaning, the etching mechanism and selective etching of silicon native oxide were investigated using PSG, BSG, TEOS and thermal oxide film on silicon wafers. Also, the removal of silicon native oxide in contact holes after UV-excited F2+H2 dry cleaning, was defined by confirming the reduction of Kelvin resistance
