Etching Mechanisms of CF3 Etching Fluorinated Si: Molecular Dynamics Simulation

Molecular dynamics simulations are performed to investigate CF3 continuously bom- barding the amorphous silicon surface with energies of 10 eV, 50 eV, 100 eV and 150 eV at normal incidence and room temperature. The improved Tersoff-Brenner potentials were used. The simulation results show that the s...

Description
Summary:Molecular dynamics simulations are performed to investigate CF3 continuously bom- barding the amorphous silicon surface with energies of 10 eV, 50 eV, 100 eV and 150 eV at normal incidence and room temperature. The improved Tersoff-Brenner potentials were used. The simulation results show that the steady-state etching rates are about 0.019, 0.085 and 0.1701 for 50 eV, 100 eV and 150 eV, respectively. With increasing incident energy, a transition from C-rich surface to F-rich surface is observed. In the region modified by CF3, SiF and CF species are dominant.
