Dependence of wet etch rate on deposition, annealing conditions and etchants for PECVD silicon nitride film

The influence of deposition, annealing conditions, and etchants on the wet etch rate of plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) silicon nitride thin film is studied. The deposition source gas flow rate and annealing temperature were varied to decrease the etch rate of SiN_x:H by HF solution. A low etch rate was achieved by increasing the SiH_4 gas flow rate or annealing temperature, or decreasing the NH_3 and N_2 gas flow rate. Concen-trated, buffered, and dilute hydrofluoric acid were utilized as etchants for SiO_2 and SiN_x:H. A high etching selectivity of SiO_2 over SiN_x:H was obtained using highly concentrated buffered HF.
