Abstract:
A method of etching is described. The method includes providing a substrate having a first material containing organic material and a second material that is different from the first material, forming a first chemical mixture by plasma-excitation of a first process gas containing an inert gas, and exposing the first material on the substrate to the first chemical mixture. Thereafter, the method includes forming a second chemical mixture by plasma-excitation of a second process gas containing C and O, and optionally a noble element, and exposing the first material on the substrate to the second plasma-excited process gas to selectively etch the first material relative to the second material.

Claim (Index 3):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the first process gas contains Ar.
