The challenge is to remove both the crust (or hardened layer formed during implant) and the soft bulk resist without burning the crust and therefore, without leaving carbonized residues which are very difficult to clean off. Controlled removal of hardened organic material and untouched resist at low temperature is key to cleanliness.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-762d1b7 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"762d1b7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.base\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"h5\">Microwave Plasma \u2013 Isotropic resist removal with least thermal load<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3287218 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3287218\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"p1\">Due to the nature of the RF-plasma, it exposes the substrate to a relative high intake of charged species (ions). These ions transfer kinetic energy when hitting the surface and cause the substrate to heat up. High temperature is very unfavorable to the post high dose implant strip as it will participate to further baking and hardening of the photoresist crust. Cooling of the substrate helps to prevent volume heating-up of the substrate but it cannot avoid local heating of the surface where the actual reaction takes place. Hence, even if the average temperature is kept low, the local temperature remains high<br \/>since the underlying reaction (ion-sputtering) is not affected by the cooling. Using Muegge\u2019s microwave assisted plasma systems, the energy transfer is extremely low, no charged particles are formed which could be released into the process chamber. As a result the substrate remains cold, the only heat-source it is the chemical reaction of the exothermic photoresist removal. As the reaction heat is a direct result of the resist-strip process, it can be easily controlled by the process conditions.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-39b5337 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"39b5337\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-bb20725\" data-id=\"bb20725\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f26aff elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"7f26aff\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-af47c2c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"af47c2c\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0b8d22a\" data-id=\"0b8d22a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3cb764b elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3cb764b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.base\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"h5\">MUEGGE\u2019s solution \u2013 accurate, reliable and repeatable<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6830353 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6830353\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-520b485\" data-id=\"520b485\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-303c781 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"303c781\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"460\" height=\"345\" src=\"https:\/\/muegge-group.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/muegge-blog-quality-leaps-in-micromachinery-and-mems-01.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2520\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/muegge-group.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/muegge-blog-quality-leaps-in-micromachinery-and-mems-01.jpg 460w, https:\/\/muegge-group.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/muegge-blog-quality-leaps-in-micromachinery-and-mems-01-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 460px) 100vw, 460px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e7eb0b0\" data-id=\"e7eb0b0\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-adfcd8f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"adfcd8f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Microwave assisted plasma efficiently uses the energy to form highly reactive, neutral particles called radicals.

Microwave assisted plasma allows to cut through the crust, remove the bulk resist without blistering or resist burning and removed residues softly and with high selectivity during over-ash. Due to the physical properties, microwave assisted plasma is specially designed for fast but smooth ashing without attacking sensitive areas. The radicals generated in the plasma initiate the chemical reaction at the surface only. Without measurable electrical fields and ions present at substrate level, no plasma induced charging damage of critical structures occurs. Microwave assisted plasma is highly environmentally compliant due to nearly complete dissociation of process gases like CF4.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a366169 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a366169\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8486c2f\" data-id=\"8486c2f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0ed58c5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"0ed58c5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>High Dose Implant Strip (HDIS) \u2013 Challengeable process in semiconductor manufacturing Photoresist strip after high dose implant strip remains one of the most demanding processes insemiconductor industry.
