Abstract

Methods of manufacturing semiconductor devices are described. A film stack on a substrate is exposed to a mixture of chlorine (Cl<sub>2</sub>), hydrogen bromide (HBr), oxygen (O<sub>2</sub>), and a fluorine-containing hydrocarbon to etch an opening in the film stack. The fluorine-containing hydrocarbon may have a general formula (I) CxHyFz wherein x is an integer in a range of from 1 to 4, y is an integer in a range of from 0 to 8, and z is an integer in a range of from 1 to 8. The film stack may additionally be exposed to etch cycles of a plasma where the plasma can be turned off periodically.
