Popis: In the electronic device fabrication, etching is one of the important processes to do. For this work, the dry etching was done to silicon nitride layer under a CF4 / O2 gas mixture using reactive ion etching (RIE) process has been investigated. This etching process was carried out at a room temperature with gas pressure of 500 mTorr, RF power of 60-80 W, O2 and CF4 flow rate of 5-10 sccm and 40-50 sccm respectively. From the process, a statistical method of Design of Experiment (DOE) Pro XL software was utilized for appropriate analysis.
