Abstract
We present a universal surface kinetic model developed with a self-consistent numerical algorithm under a wide range of oxide etching process conditions. The deposition or etch yield can be calculated by considering both the passivation layer and mixed layers simultaneously. The proposed model was verified with experimental and atomic scale simulations. Finally, we integrated this model with 3D feature profile simulation to investigate the emerging issues in the plasma oxide process, such as low temperature and surface charging. The valuable knowledge from our integrated simulation will be discussed for the next-generation plasma oxide etch process.
