Abstract:
Methods for minimizing plasma-induced sidewall damage during low k etch processes are disclosed. The methods etch the low k layers using the plasma activated vapor of an organofluorine compound having a formula selected from the group consisting of N≡C—R; (N≡C—)—(R)—(—C≡N); R x [—C═N(R z )] y ; and R (3-a) —N—H a , wherein a=1-2, x=1-2, y=1-2, z=0-1, x+z=1-3, and each R independently has the formula H a F b C c  with a=0-11, b=0-11, and c=0-5.

Claim (Index 7):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the organofluorine compound has the formula: N\u2261C\u2014R, wherein R has the formula H a F b C c  with a=0, b=1-11, and c=1-5.
