Abstract: A layer stack over a substrate is etched using a photoresist pattern deposited on the layer stack as a first mask. The photoresist pattern is in-situ cured using plasma. At least a portion of the photoresist pattern can be modified by curing. In one embodiment, silicon by-products are formed on the photoresist pattern from the plasma. In another embodiment, a carbon from the plasma is embedded into the photoresist pattern. In yet another embodiment, the plasma produces an ultraviolet light to cure the photoresist pattern. The cured photoresist pattern is slimmed. The layer stack is etched using the slimmed photoresist pattern as a second mask.

Abstract: Systems and methods discussed herein are directed towards processing of substrates, including forming a plurality of features in a target layer on a substrate. The formation of the plurality of features includes a main etch operation that forms the plurality of features to a first depth in the target layer. The main etch operation is followed by a phase shift sync pulsing (PSSP) operation, and these two operations are repeated iteratively to form the features to a predetermined depth. The PSSP operation includes one or more cycles of RF source power and RF bias power, this cycle deposits a protective coating in and on the features and then etches a portion of the protective coating to expose portions of the feature.
