Abstract

We investigated the etching mechanism of (Zr0.8Sn0.2)TiO4 film by using Cl2/O2-gas plasma. To understand the etching mechanism and etching rate behavior from the point of view of internal plasma properties and active particle kinetics, we used the plasma modeling. The data of Langmuir probe measurements and optical emission spectroscopy were used both as input data and model verification parameters etc. We also extracted the etching characteristics of the ZST film such as etch rate and analyzed the surface reaction by using XPS with various Cl2/O2-gas mixing ratios. On the basis of plasma modeling and experimental data, we will discuss the mechanism of ZST film etching in detail.
