Abstract

This paper investigates the use of plasma diagnostic monitoring to implement the right methodology to improve MTBC (Mean Time Between Clean) and decrease the defectivity on the LAM TCP9600. A global approach was used to reach our MTBC and defectivity goals by working on the main chamber wet clean procedures, on the conditioning procedures, on the pumping conditions and on the gas lines. The different partners involved were ST Microelectronics, LAM RESEARCH, ALCALEL, MILLIPORE and ASI.
