Abstract

See full text

To remove nanotopography (unevenness of wavelength: 0.2 mm through 20 mm, wave height: 1 through several hundreds nm) which has already been produced on a surface of a semiconductor wafer which has been regarded as impossible to remove conventionally, a half value width of an etching profile of activated species gas is set to fall in a range equal to or smaller than a wavelength a of nanotopography and equal to or larger than a half thereof. Based on previously measured data of nanotopography, moving speed and locus of injected activated species gas along a surface of a semiconductor wafer are calculated and controlled.
