  • Abstract
    This paper will describe the application of a new ashing chemistry incorporating H2O and CF4 for improved polymer strippability and reduced via resistance for deep submicron multilevel metalizations. Results are shown from integrating the ash into both 0.25 and 0.35 μm ASIC processes
