Abstract
Si3 N4 film could be selectively removed by a special H3 PO4-free etchant. In order to increase Si3 N4 etching rate and Si3 N4 /SiO2 etch selectivity, various additives were added to H3 PO4-free etchant. The optimization of additives into H3 PO4-free solution, a comparable Si3 N4 etching rate with 50 times increased Si3 N4 /SiO2 etch selectivity was obtained as compared to the conventional H3 PO4 process.
