  • Abstract
    The derivation and character of dimensionless parameters for the semiconductor manufacturing process of reactive ion etching (RIE) in generic form are discussed. Data from characterizations of a variety of films processed under a variety of etching regimes to establish the validity of derived parameters are presented. Fundamental realizations regarding the interrelationship of parameters in plasma-driven etching reactions are outlined, and the theory underlying the derivation itself is given
