The wafer boats, loaded with a batch of wafers to be processed, are positioned on long cantilevered paddles.

Currently, many semiconductor devices employ mesa device structures, which are predominantly created through two types of etching: wet etching and dry etching. While the simple and rapid wet etching plays a significant role in semiconductor device fabrication, it has inherent drawbacks such as isotropic etching and poor uniformity, which result in limited control when transferring small-sized patterns. Dry etching, however, with its high anisotropy, good uniformity, and repeatability, has become prominent in semiconductor device fabrication processes. The term “dry etching” broadly refers to any non-wet etching technology used for removing surface materials and transferring micro and nano patterns, including laser etching, plasma etching, and chemical vapor etching. The dry etching discussed in this text specifically pertains to the narrow application of processes using plasma discharge—either physical or chemical—to modify material surfaces.

Common thin films are mainly divided into three categories: semiconductor thin films, dielectric thin films, and metal/metal compound thin films.

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a wide-bandgap semiconductor material that has garnered significant attention in recent years due to its exceptional performance in high-voltage and high-temperature applications. This study systematically explores the various characteristics of SiC crystals grown using modified process conditions.

An Electrostatic Chuck (ESC) is a device used to hold semiconductor wafers in place during processes such as etching, deposition, or polishing.

In the semiconductor manufacturing process, wafers form the foundation of chip production. Among these, a special type of wafer, referred to as the Dummy Wafer, plays a pivotal role in ensuring equipment stability and controlling production costs.
