By lightly roughening the back surface, the glass substrate is placed on a table and the main surface (surface) is surface-treated, and then the glass substrate can be easily separated from the table when being carried out from the stage. The degree of roughening of the back surface of the glass substrate by the above etching treatment is preferably as small as possible within a range in which the glass substrate can be easily separated from the stage. When the degree of roughening is too large, the glass substrate is hardly adhered to the table when the surface is surface-treated, or the optical properties of the glass substrate are deteriorated. However, it is considered that the processing gas for etching also contacts the main surface of the glass substrate due to diffusion. If this is the case, the main surface is also roughened. The present invention has been made in view of the above-described circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to suppress or prevent the first surface (for example, the main surface) of a substrate containing a substrate containing a substrate such as a glass substrate from being etched while etching the second side of the back surface side. surface. [Technical means for solving the problem] In order to solve the above problems, the method of the present invention is an etching method characterized in that it is contained under a pressure close to atmospheric pressure, and contains a ruthenium-containing material and has a first surface and the first surface. The substrate to be processed on the second surface on the back side is etched, and the substrate to be processed is placed in a treatment environment containing hydrogen fluoride vapor and water vapor, and the temperature of the first surface is higher than the hydrogen fluoride and water in the treatment environment. The condensation point is adjusted such that the temperature of the second surface is below the condensation point. On the second surface of the substrate to be processed, hydrogen fluoride and water are condensed on the second surface by the relationship between the condensation point and the temperature of the second surface I54223.doc 201145381 to form a condensation layer of hydrofluoric acid. Thereby, the ruthenium constituting the second surface generates an etching reaction, so that the second surface can be touched (including roughening). On the other hand, on the first surface, the formation of the condensation layer can be avoided by the relationship between the condensation point and the temperature of the first surface. Therefore, the first surface can be suppressed or prevented from being etched. Preferably, the temperature of the first surface is higher than the condensation point by 〇 ° C or more and 40 ° C. More preferably, the temperature of the first surface is 5 ° C to 30 ° C higher than the condensation point. By heating the first surface and further the amount of heat to be applied to the first surface, heat can be prevented or suppressed from being transmitted to the second surface, and the temperature rise of the second surface can be prevented or suppressed. Therefore, the temperature of the second surface can be surely made lower than the above condensation point. Thereby, it is possible to surely prevent or suppress the first surface from being etched, and to surely engrave the second surface. Preferably, the temperature of the second surface is lower than the condensation point. 〇~丨〇. Hey. By setting the difference between the temperature of the condensing point and the second surface to be small, the temperature of the first surface can be made to exceed the condensing point as long as the first surface is slightly heated. By making the heating degree of the first surface and the amount of heat to be applied to the second surface to be small, heat can be prevented or suppressed from being transmitted to the second surface, and the temperature rise of the second surface can be prevented or suppressed. Therefore, the temperature of the second surface can be surely made lower than the above condensation point. Thereby, the second surface can be surely etched while reliably preventing or suppressing the etching of the first surface. The etching method of the present invention can carry the substrate to be processed from the inlet connected to the processing space having the processing environment. The processing space carries out the substrate to be processed from a transfer port connected to the processing space, and 154223.doc -6- 201145381 sucks gas near the transfer port and near the transfer port. Thereby, external air can be sucked and discharged in the vicinity of the inlet or the outlet before the outside air reaches the processing space through the inlet or the outlet, thereby preventing the outside air from flowing into the processing space. The flow rate or flow rate of the inflowing of the external gas varies depending on the loading and unloading of the substrate to be processed. Even if such a change occurs, the external gas can be prevented from being mixed into the processing environment by the above-described suction, so that the gas composition of the treatment environment, the partial pressure of hydrogen fluoride vapor, and the partial pressure of water vapor can be maintained separately from the process gas itself. Roughly the same. As a result, the etching treatment of the second surface can be prevented from becoming uneven. Further, even if the humidity of the outside air is higher than the humidity of the processing environment, the humidity of the processing environment on the first surface side can be prevented from rising, and the formation of the condensation layer on the first surface can be prevented. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the i-th surface from being etched. The apparatus of the present invention is characterized in that it is a treatment substrate containing a ruthenium-containing surface and a second surface on the back side of the first surface in a treatment space having a pressure close to atmospheric pressure and a humidity of more than 0%. The etcher includes: a discharge nozzle that supplies a processing gas containing hydrogen fluoride and at least hydrogen fluoride in water to the processing space, and the processing gas contacts at least the second surface of the substrate to be processed; and an adjustment mechanism The temperature of the first surface is higher than the condensation point of the argon fluoride and the water in the processing space, and the temperature of the second surface is adjusted to be lower than the condensation point. The apparatus of the present invention mixes process gases from the discharge nozzles into a processing environment within the process space. Since the process gas contains hydrogen fluoride and at least hydrogen in water and the humidity of the treatment space exceeds 'therefore, the treatment environment contains 154223.doc 201145381 with vaporized steam and leeches. Poor by ^ ^ child handling environmental contact with the processed material. At this time, on the second surface of the object to be processed, the relationship between the temperature of the node of the adjustment mechanism m and the temperature of the second surface is adjusted, and hydrogen fluoride and water in the treatment environment are condensed on the second surface of the object to be processed. Condensation layer of hydrogen (four). Therefore, the etching reaction of the ruthenium containing the second surface is caused, and the second surface can be etched (including roughening). On the other hand, on the third side of the object to be processed, the above-mentioned condensation point and the first by the above-mentioned adjustment mechanism! The relationship between the temperature of the surface can be adjusted to avoid condensation of hydrogen fluoride and water on the W in the treatment environment, thereby avoiding the formation of a condensation layer of hydrofluoric acid. Therefore, the etching reaction of the ruthenium constituting the first working surface can be suppressed or prevented. The humidity of the above-mentioned processing space may be more than 〇%, and may be less than or equal to 1% RH. The adjusting mechanism may be a temperature for controlling the second surface of the substrate to be processed, or a temperature for controlling the second surface, or a partial pressure of hydrogen fluoride or a partial pressure of water vapor for controlling the processing gas, or may be a control treatment. The water vapor partial pressure of the treatment environment in the space may also be the water vapor partial pressure that controls the external gas flowing into the treatment space. Preferably, the adjustment mechanism includes a heater that is disposed closer to the position on the opposite side of the discharge nozzle than the position of the substrate to be processed in the processing space, and the heater is set at a temperature higher than The above condensation point is higher than °C~6〇1. Thereby, the temperature of the first surface of the substrate to be processed can be surely made higher than the condensation point of hydrogen fluoride and water in the treatment environment. By setting the heating degree of the first surface and the amount of heat to be applied to the first surface to be small, heat transfer 154223.doc 201145381 to the second surface can be avoided or suppressed, thereby preventing or suppressing the temperature rise of the second surface. . Therefore, the temperature of the second surface can be surely made lower than the condensation point. Thereby, the second surface can be surely etched while reliably suppressing or preventing the first surface from being etched. In the case where the substrate to be processed is relatively moved with respect to the discharge nozzle, it is preferable to set the set temperature of the heater in consideration of the moving speed. For example, when the moving speed is relatively large, the set temperature is relatively higher than the desired temperature of the first surface. Thereby, the time required for the first surface to reach the above-mentioned desired temperature can be shortened. On the other hand, since the moving speed is relatively large, the processing can be ended before the temperature of the second surface is higher than the condensation point. When the moving speed is relatively small, the set temperature may be made substantially the same as the desired temperature. Thereby, the temperature of the substrate to be processed can be prevented from greatly exceeding the above-mentioned desired temperature. On the other hand, if the moving speed is small, the heating time is prolonged, but the set temperature and the desired temperature are set to be slightly higher than the above. At the condensation point, the temperature of the second surface can be maintained below the condensation point. Preferably, the adjustment mechanism adjusts the temperature of the second surface to be lower than the condensation point. 〇~i〇°c. By setting the difference between the condensation point of hydrogen fluoride and water in the treatment environment and the temperature of the second surface to be small, the temperature of the first surface can be made larger than the condensation point by heating the first surface slightly. By heating the first surface and further reducing the amount of heat to be applied to the first surface, heat can be prevented or suppressed from being transmitted to the second surface. From 154223.doc 201145381, the temperature rise of the second surface can be prevented or suppressed. . Therefore, the temperature of the second surface can be surely made lower than the condensation point. Thereby, the first surface can be surely suppressed or prevented from being etched, and the second surface can be surely etched.

部23内搬入被處理基板9之前被處理基板9之溫度。通常, 在即將進行上述搬入之前,被處理基板9整體為上述初期 皿度。因此,第1面9a及第2面9b為上述初期溫度》將該被 處理基板9自搬入口 26插入至處理空間23内,沿圖}之箭頭 a之方向自處理空間23之一端側(圖1中為右端側)向另一端 側(圖1中為左端側)搬送。如此,則被處理基板9覆蓋於喷 出噴嘴40之上方,自喷出口 41喷出之處理氣體與被處理基

加熱至设定溫度,並保持於該設定溫度。上述加熱器21之 设定溫度係設定為高於處理環境中之氟化氫及水之凝結 點,較佳為稍超出上述凝結點。例如,將上述加熱器21之 設定溫度調節為較上述凝結點高〇艺以上〜6(rc左右。該加 熱器21之熱係以非接觸之方式傳遞至導入於處理空間内 之破處理基板9之第1面9a。藉此,可將第1面%加熱至所 期望溫度。上述所期望溫度係高於上述凝結點,且大致等 於上述設定溫度或低於設定溫度,例如較凝結點高〇£>c以 上〜40t。藉由減小加熱器21與被處理基板9之間之距離 di,可確實地對第1面9a進行加熱(溫度調節)。 加熱上述被處理基板9之第丄面“時,儘量將第2面外之 /JBL度維持在上述凝結點以下(例如較凝結點低〇 a。〜1 〇), 較佳為大致維持為上述初期溫度。即,儘量使來自於加熱 器21之熱幾乎不傳遞至被處理基板9之第2面9b。如上所 述,藉由減小上述凝結點與被處理基板9之初期溫度之 差,使得只要稍加熱被處理基板9之第1面知即可達到高於 上述凝結點之設定溫度,可減少加熱器21對被處理基板9 之第1面9a賦予之熱量。藉此,可抑制或阻止熱傳遞至被 處理基板9之第2面9b。 亦可調節搬送機構30之搬送速度,以在熱到達至第2面 9b之前將被處理基板9自處理空間23、進而搬出口 ”搬 出。於该情形時,搬送機構3〇成為申請專利範圍之「調節 機構」之要素。上述加熱器21之設定溫度係考慮搬送速度 154223.doc •19· 201145381 而設定。於搬送速度相對較快時,使加熱器21之設定溫度 充分高於第1面9a之所期望溫度。藉此,可縮短第1面9a達 到所期望溫度所需之時間。另一方面,藉由高速搬送,可 於第2面9b之溫度高於凝結點之前將被處理基板9自搬出口 2 7搬出。相對於此’於搬送速度相對較小時,可將加熱器

器21之設定溫度較第!面9a之所期望溫度高丨〇。〇〜2〇它左 右。相對於此’進行搬送速度為1 min/secA右以下之低速 搬送時,使加熱器21之設定溫度與第1面%之所期望溫度 大致相同。 因第2面9b之溫度在上述凝結點以下,故而當處理環境 中之氟化氫蒸氣及水蒸氣接觸第2面913時凝結而形成氫氟 酸之凝結層。其結果,構成第2面9b2Si〇2等含矽物產生 蝕刻反應,從而可將第2面9b輕度粗化。 另方面,被處理基板9之第1面9a由於溫度高於上述凝 結點’故而即便處理環境中之氟化氫蒸氣及水蒸氣接觸第 1面%亦不會凝結。因此,可防止於第1面9a形成凝結層。 其結果,可防止第1面9a受到蝕刻,從而可將第丄面“之表 154223.doc •20· 201145381 面狀態保持為良好。 藉由上述大氣壓蝕刻裝置丨進行粗化處理後,將被處理 基板9搬送至另一表面處理裝置(未圖示)。將被處理基板9 載置於該表面處理裝置之工作台上,使第2面9b接觸並吸 附於工作台。由於第2面913之粗化度較小,故而可將被處 理基板9確實地吸附保持於工作台。接著,對第1面%實施 洗淨、表面改質、蝕刻、灰化、成膜等表面處理。第1面 9a因於上述粗面化處理中避免了粗面化,故而可進行良好 之表面處理。進而,可使藉由上述表面處理所形成之絕緣 層、導電層、半導體層等各種電子元件層具有優良品質。 於第1面9a之表面處理後,將被處理基板9自工作台搬出。 由於第2面9b上藉由上述粗面化處理而形成有微小凹凸, 故而可容易地將被處理基板9自工作台分離。其結果,可 防止被處理基板9彎曲或破裂。 其次,對本發明之其他實施形態進行說明。於以下之實 施形態中,對於與上述之形態重複之部分,於圖式上標註 相同符號且適當省略說明。 如圖3及圖4所示,於第2實施形態之大氣壓蝕刻裝置u

[Effect of the Invention] According to the present invention, the second surface of the back side can be inspected while preventing or preventing the first surface of the substrate to be processed from being touched. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. 1 and 2 show an i-th embodiment of the present invention. The substrate to be processed 9 is, for example, a glass substrate to be a semiconductor device such as a flat panel display. The glass substrate 9 contains a ruthenium containing Si 〇 2 as a main component. The thickness of the glass substrate 9 is, for example, 0. 5 mm~0. About 7 mm. The glass substrate 9 is formed in a square shape of a square shape, and has a first surface 9a (main surface) on the front side and a second surface 9b (back surface) on the back side. The first surface 9a is provided with a main surface of various electronic component layers such as an insulating layer, a conductive layer, and a semiconductor layer. The second surface 9b is a back surface of the object to be roughened (etched) by the atmospheric pressure etching apparatus i. After the second surface 9b is roughened, the surface treatment for forming the above various electronic element layers is performed on the first surface 9a. As shown in Fig. 1, the atmospheric pressure etching apparatus 1 includes a material gas supply mechanism 10, a processing unit 20, and a transport mechanism 30. The raw material gas supply mechanism 丨〇 contains 154223. Doc -10- 201145381 The fluorine-based raw material supply unit 11 and the water addition unit 12. The fluorine-based raw material supply unit 11 supplies a raw material gas which is a processing gas (money engraving agent) for buttoning. The material gas contains a fluorine-containing gas and a carrier gas. The fluorine-containing gas system uses CF4. As the fluorine-containing gas, other PFCs (perfluorocarbons) such as C2F6, C3F6, and C3f8, HFC (hydrofluorocarbon) such as CHF3, CH2F2, and CH3F, and PFCs such as SF6, NF3, and XA, and fluorine-containing compounds other than HFC may be used. Instead of CF4. In addition to the function of transporting the fluorine-containing gas, the carrier gas also functions as a diluent gas for diluting the gas-containing gas, and functions as a discharge gas for generating electric discharge electricity, which will be described later. The carrier gas is preferably an inert gas. Examples of the inert gas to be a carrier gas include rare gases such as helium, argon, helium, and helium, or nitrogen. Here, argon (Ar) is used as the carrier gas system. The flow ratio of the fluorine-containing gas to the carrier gas (CP#: αγ) is preferably 1 ··1000~1 : 10. The carrier gas can also be omitted. The water adding unit 12 adds water (h2〇) to the material gas (CF4+Ar) to humidify the material gas. By adjusting the amount of water added, the partial pressure of water vapor of the material gas can be adjusted, and the partial pressure of hydrogen fluoride and the partial pressure of water vapor of the process gas can be adjusted. The water adding portion 12 is composed of, for example, a humidifier including a groove such as a thermostatic chamber. Liquid water is accumulated in the tank. The raw material gas from the supply portion is supplied to the upper portion of the water surface of the above-mentioned tank, and is mixed with the saturated steam of the upper portion. Alternatively, water vapor may be added to the material gas by bubbling the raw material gas from the supply unit u in the water in the tank. The amount of water added can also be adjusted by adjusting the temperature of the above-mentioned tank to adjust the steam. Preferably, it satisfies the processing performance of the second surface 913 154223. Doc 201145381 adjusts the amount of water added to the water addition unit 12 and further the dew point of the treated gas. The dew point of the material gas before the addition of water is preferably _4 〇〇 c or less. Convert dew point -40 C to water vapor partial pressure to 0. Around 03 Torr, converted to volume, and the degree of agriculture is 0. About 004% The amount of water vapor in the raw material gas is almost a disaster. The amount of water in the raw material gas after the addition of water can be calculated based on the path of the raw material gas before the addition of water and the amount of gas in the water addition portion 12, and a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) can also be used. The amount of water in the material gas after the addition of water is measured. As shown in Fig. 1, the processing unit 20 includes a top plate 21, a bottom plate 22, a discharge nozzle 40, and a suction nozzle 50. The top plate 21 is formed in a horizontal plate shape. The width dimension of the top plate 21 in the direction orthogonal to the paper surface of Fig. 1 (hereinafter referred to as "y direction") is slightly larger than the width dimension of the substrate 9 to be processed in the y direction.

The discharge port 41 is formed in a slit shape extending in the y direction, and the length of the slit θ41 is larger than the width dimension of the substrate to be processed 9 in the y direction. The discharge nozzle 40 is connected to one end of the bottom plate 22 in the weir direction (the right end portion in Fig. i). The upper end surface of the discharge nozzle 4G is flush with the upper surface of the bottom plate 22. The end portion (the right end portion in the figure!) of the top plate 21 protrudes from the end side of the bottom plate 22 (the right end side in the figure), and covers the upper side of the discharge nozzle 4''. A carry-in port % is formed between one end of the top plate 21 and the discharge nozzle 4A. The suction nozzle 50 is disposed at the other end of the processing unit 2 (the left end of the figure). The suction nozzle 50 is formed in a container shape that extends long in the y direction. A suction port 51 is formed in the upper end surface of the suction nozzle 50. The suction port 51 is formed in a slit shape extending in the y direction and the length of the inlet 51 in the y direction is slightly smaller than the width dimension of the substrate 9 to be processed in the y direction. The suction nozzle 50 is connected to the other end of the bottom plate 22 in the direction of the bottom plate (in the figure, the left end portion of the suction nozzle 50 has the same end surface as the upper surface of the bottom plate 22. The other end portion of the top plate 2i (in FIG. The left end portion protrudes toward the other end side and covers the upper side of the suction nozzle 50. A discharge port 27 is formed between the other end portion of the top plate 21 and the suction nozzle 50. At the processing port P 20 The processing unit inner space 29 is formed between the upper side top plate 2 i and the lower side constituent parts 22, 4〇, and %. One end of the processing unit inner space 29 in the parent direction (the right end portion in Fig. 1) is connected and moved in. The port 26 is connected to the other end of the processing unit 29 in the X direction (the left end in Fig. i), and the outlet 27 is formed. Both ends of the processing unit inner space 29 in the X direction are carried through the inlet 26, 154223. Doc -13- 201145381 2J is connected to the space outside the processing unit 2〇. As shown in Fig. 2, both ends of the inner door 29 of the processing portion in the y direction are closed by side walls. As shown in Fig. 1, the portion of the processing chamber inner space 29 from the position in the direction of the discharge port 41〇 to the position in the X direction of the suction port 51 constitutes the upper top plate 21 and the lower side portion of the processing space 23 processing unit 2〇. The % and the two side walls 24 constitute a processing space forming portion. The processing space 23 is connected to the moving population % via the processing unit inner space 29 which is located on the end side in the X direction. Further, the processing space 23 is connected to the transfer port 27 via the processing unit inner space 29 located on the other end side of the suction port 51 in the x-direction. The thickness of the processing space 23 is equal to the interval between the lower surface of the top plate 2i and the upper surface of the bottom plate 22, such as 〇 d 〇 = 5 mm 〜 1 〇 mm. A rectifying portion 42 is provided at a lower portion of the discharge nozzle 40. In the detailed illustration, the rectifying portion 42 includes a chamber or a slit extending in the y direction, or a plurality of small holes arranged in the y direction. The raw material gas (CF4+Ar+H2〇) after the addition of water is introduced into the rectifying unit 42 to be uniformized in the y direction. The plasma generating unit 6 is housed inside the discharge nozzle 40. The plasma generating unit 60 includes at least a pair of electrodes 61 and 61. The electrodes 61, 61 extend in the y direction, respectively. A solid dielectric layer (not shown) is provided on the opposite surface of at least one of the electrodes 61. One electrode 61 is connected to a power source (not shown) and the other electrode 61 is electrically grounded. An electropolymer discharge space 62 of substantially atmospheric pressure is formed between the pair of electrodes 61. The discharge space 62 is formed in a slit shape extending in the same direction as the electrode 61 in the seven-direction direction. In the discharge space 62, the above-mentioned raw material gas (CF4+Ar+H2〇) is plasma (including decomposition, excitation, activation, and radical Ι 54223. Doc -Μ 201145381 chemistry, ionization, etc.). By this, the raw material gas component is decomposed to generate a processing gas containing a fluorine-based reaction component such as hydrogenated hydrogen (HF) or COF 2 (COF2 in the fluorine-based reaction component such as Formula 1 can be further reacted with water to be converted into hydrogen fluoride (Formula 3). C0F2+H20-2HF+C〇2 (Formula 3) In the present embodiment, the water addition unit 12 is set such that almost all of h2o in the material gas participates in the formation reaction of Formula II (Formula 3 'Formula 3). Therefore, the H2〇 content in the process gas is substantially negligible to a degree that is substantially negligible or 0°/〇. The process gas contains undecomposed material gas components (CF4 in addition to the fluorine-based reaction component). Ar, HzO) » The process gas is ejected upward from the discharge port 41. The discharge flow of the process gas is uniform in the y direction. The exhaust mechanism such as a suction pump is connected to the suction nozzle 50 as shown. By driving the above-described exhaust mechanism ', the gas in the processing space 23 can be sucked into the suction port 51 of the suction nozzle 50 and the exhaust gas flow from the suction nozzle 5 is discharged to be larger than the supply of the processing gas from the discharge nozzle 40. Flow rate, equivalent to the above exhaust flow and supply The external air (air or the like) of the amount of the difference flows into the processing unit internal space 29 from the carry-in port 26 and the transfer port 27. The external air from the carry-in port 26 flows into the processing space 23 through the discharge port 41. The outside air from the outlet 27 is sucked by the suction port 51 and hardly reaches the processing space 23. Therefore, the processing environment in the processing space 23 becomes a mixed gas of the inflowing external gas and the processing gas from the above-described loading port 26. The following '/, unless otherwise specified, "inflow of external gas" means moving from above I54223. Doc •15· 201145381 The inlet 26 flows into the outside air in the processing space 23. The inflowing external gas usually contains moisture and the humidity is at least more than 〇%. In the present embodiment, the exhaust gas flow rate from the suction nozzle 50 is set to be sufficiently larger than the supply flow rate of the processing gas, and the flow rate of the inflowing external gas is sufficiently larger than the supply flow rate of the processing gas (for example, about 1 〇). The water content of the process gas is extremely small, and the partial pressure of water vapor in the treatment environment in the treatment space 23 is substantially equal to the partial pressure of water vapor of the external gas. The transport mechanism 30 includes a roller shaft 31 and a transport parent 32 that are disposed at a lower portion of the processing unit 20. The plurality of roller shafts 31 are arranged such that the axes are oriented in parallel in the width direction y and at intervals in the 乂 direction. In the axial direction y of each of the rod shafts 3 1 , a plurality of conveying rollers 32 are provided at intervals. The upper end portion of the conveying roller 32 passes through the roller holes 25 of the bottom plate 22 and protrudes upward from the upper surface of the bottom plate 22, facing the processing space. 23 inside. The amount of projection of the conveyance roller 32 from the upper surface of the bottom plate 22 corresponds to the distance between the second surface 9b of the substrate to be processed 9 and the discharge port 41 (working distance WD). The working distance WD is, for example, WD = 2 mm to 10 mm. The left side 0 transport mechanism 30 supports the substrate to be processed 9 horizontally in the direction of the arrow a toward the arrow a (left side in Fig. 1). Thereby, the substrate to be processed 9 is inserted into the processing space 23 from the inside of the processing space 23, passes through the inside of the processing space 23, and is carried out from the unloading port 27. The conveying speed of the substrate 9 to be processed of the conveying mechanism 30 is preferably 0. 1 m / min ~ 20 m / min or so. The transport mechanism 3 also serves as a support mechanism for supporting the substrate to be processed 9 and arranging it in the processing space 23. The first surface 9a of the processed substrate 9 faces upward, and the second surface 9b faces downward. Further, the atmospheric pressure etching apparatus 1 includes an adjustment mechanism. The above adjustment mechanism 154223. Doc -16- 201145381 Adjusting the first surface 9a of the substrate to be processed 9 by the relationship between the temperature of the first surface 9a and the second surface 9b of the substrate 9 to be processed and the condensation point of the mixed system of hydrogen fluoride and water in the processing space 23 And the temperature of the second surface 9b. In the present embodiment, the top plate 21 is constituted by a plate heater as described above, and is provided as a main element of the adjustment mechanism. The top plate, that is, the plate heater 21, is disposed on the opposite side of the discharge nozzle 40 with the position of the substrate to be processed 9 disposed in the processing space 23, and is disposed close to the above position. The distance d: between the lower surface of the heater, that is, the surface of the lower surface of the heater, and the first surface 9a of the substrate to be processed 9 disposed at the above position is preferably, for example, about d 丨 2 mm to 10 mm. The temperature of the heater 21 can be set in the range of from room temperature to, for example, about 50 °C. The set temperature of the heater 21 is set in accordance with the humidity of the outside air, the partial pressure of water vapor in the processing environment in the processing space 23, the partial pressure of hydrogen sulfide in the processing gas and the processing environment in the processing space 23, and the like. A method of shallowly etching the substrate to be processed 9 by the atmospheric pressure etching apparatus 1 configured as described above will be described. The water addition unit 12 adds a specific amount of water vapor (h2〇) to the raw material gas (CFi+Ar) from the fluorine-based raw material supply unit to obtain a humidified raw material gas. The humidification material gas (CF4+Ar+H2〇) is homogenized in the width direction y by the rectifying unit 42, and then plasma-formed by the plasma generating unit 6〇. Thereby, a processing gas containing hydrogen fluoride and at least hydrogen fluoride in water is produced. The partial pressure of hydrogen fluoride and the partial pressure of water vapor of the process gas can be adjusted by adjusting the amount of steam added to the water addition unit 12 or the like. Here, almost all of the moisture in the material gas is consumed to generate hydrogen fluoride, and the partial pressure of water vapor of the processing gas is substantially 〇. The temperature of the process gas is near room temperature. 154223. Doc •17· 201145381 This process gas is discharged from the discharge port 41 and supplied into the processing space 23. At the same time, the gas in the processing space 23 is sucked to the suction nozzle 5 to be discharged. The exhaust gas flow rate is set to be sufficiently larger than the processing gas supply flow rate. Therefore, the external gas which is sufficiently more than the processing gas is drawn into the processing space 23 to be mixed with the processing gas. Further, the partial pressure of water vapor in the processing environment in the processing space 23 (the mixed gas of the processing gas and the inflowing gas outside the helium gas) is substantially equal to the partial pressure of the water vapor of the outside air. The partial pressure of nitrogen in the treatment environment is equal to the hydrogen partial pressure of the treatment gas. The condensation point of hydrogen fluoride and water in the treatment environment is determined according to the partial pressure of hydrogen fluoride and the partial pressure of water vapor in the treatment environment. That is, the critical temperature of the condensation layer of hydrofluoric acid is generated (Fig.). The initial temperature of the substrate to be processed 9 is usually room temperature or about 15 to 35 °C. Here, the initial temperature of the substrate to be processed 9 means the temperature of the substrate 9 to be processed immediately before the substrate to be processed 9 is loaded into the processing unit 23. Usually, the entire substrate to be processed 9 is the initial dish size immediately before the above-described loading. Therefore, the first surface 9a and the second surface 9b are the initial temperature, and the substrate to be processed 9 is inserted into the processing space 23 from the inlet 26, and is directed from one end side of the processing space 23 in the direction of the arrow a of FIG. The middle side of 1 is the right end side) and is conveyed to the other end side (the left end side in Fig. 1). In this manner, the substrate to be processed 9 covers the upper side of the discharge nozzle 40, and the processing gas discharged from the discharge port 41 comes into contact with at least the second surface 9b of the substrate to be processed 9. Further, one portion of the local gas diffused into the processing space 23 is in contact with the first surface 9a of the substrate 9 to be processed. As described above, both the discharge temperature of the processing gas and the initial temperature of the substrate to be processed 9 are near room temperature, and the temperature difference therebetween is small. Therefore, the temperature of the substrate to be processed 9 hardly changes due to the blowing of the process gas. 154223. Doc 18.  201145381 Before the substrate 9 to be processed is carried in, the heater, which is the top plate, is heated to the set temperature in advance and held at the set temperature. The set temperature of the heater 21 is set to be higher than the condensation point of hydrogen fluoride and water in the treatment environment, preferably slightly above the condensation point. For example, the set temperature of the heater 21 is adjusted to be higher than the condensing point by about 6 to about 6 (rc). The heat of the heater 21 is transmitted to the broken substrate 9 introduced into the processing space in a non-contact manner. The first surface 9a can thereby heat the first surface % to a desired temperature. The desired temperature is higher than the condensation point and is substantially equal to the set temperature or lower than the set temperature, for example, higher than the condensation point. £>c or more to 40 t. By reducing the distance di between the heater 21 and the substrate to be processed 9, the first surface 9a can be surely heated (temperature-adjusted). The third substrate to be processed is heated. When the surface is "as far as possible, it is preferable to maintain the /JBL degree outside the second surface below the condensation point (for example, lower than the condensation point 〇a.~1 〇), and it is preferable to maintain the initial temperature as described above. The heat of the heater 21 is hardly transmitted to the second surface 9b of the substrate to be processed 9. As described above, by reducing the difference between the condensation point and the initial temperature of the substrate to be processed 9, the substrate 9 to be processed is slightly heated. The first side knows that it can reach higher than the above condensation. The set temperature of the node can reduce the amount of heat that the heater 21 applies to the first surface 9a of the substrate to be processed 9. Thereby, heat can be suppressed or prevented from being transmitted to the second surface 9b of the substrate to be processed 9. The transfer mechanism can also be adjusted. The transport speed of 30 is to carry out the processing of the substrate 9 from the processing space 23 and the transfer port before the heat reaches the second surface 9b. In this case, the transport mechanism 3 becomes the "adjustment mechanism" of the patent application scope. The setting temperature of the above heater 21 is considering the conveying speed 154223. Doc •19· 201145381 and set. When the conveying speed is relatively fast, the set temperature of the heater 21 is sufficiently higher than the desired temperature of the first surface 9a. Thereby, the time required for the first surface 9a to reach the desired temperature can be shortened. On the other hand, by the high-speed conveyance, the substrate to be processed 9 can be carried out from the outlet 27 by the temperature before the temperature of the second surface 9b is higher than the condensation point. On the other hand, when the transport speed is relatively small, the set temperature of the heater 21 can be made substantially the same as the desired temperature of the first surface 9a. By this, it is possible to prevent the temperature of the substrate to be processed 9 from being higher than the above-mentioned desired temperature. On the other hand, the heating time is prolonged in the case of low-speed conveyance, but by setting the set temperature slightly higher than the above-described condensation point, the temperature of the second surface 9b can be maintained below the condensation point. For example, when the temperature of the processing gas is room temperature and the desired temperature of the first surface 9a is 4 〇 ° C to 50 ° C, the conveying speed is about 5 mm / sec to 10 mm / sec. When transporting, set the heater 21 to a lower temperature! The desired temperature of the face 9a is high. 〇~2〇 It is left and right. In contrast to the low-speed conveyance in which the conveyance speed is 1 min/secA or less, the set temperature of the heater 21 is substantially the same as the desired temperature of the first surface %. Since the temperature of the second surface 9b is below the condensation point, when the hydrogen fluoride vapor and the water vapor in the treatment environment contact the second surface 913, they condense to form a condensation layer of hydrofluoric acid. As a result, an etch reaction is formed in the ruthenium containing the second surface 9b2Si〇2, and the second surface 9b can be lightly roughened. On the other hand, since the temperature of the first surface 9a of the substrate to be processed 9 is higher than the above-mentioned condensation point, the hydrogen fluoride vapor and the water vapor in the treatment environment are not condensed even if they contact the first surface%. Therefore, formation of a coagulation layer on the first surface 9a can be prevented. As a result, it is possible to prevent the first surface 9a from being etched, so that the first surface can be prevented from being "table 154223. Doc •20· 201145381 The surface condition remains good. After the roughening treatment by the atmospheric pressure etching apparatus ,, the substrate to be processed 9 is transferred to another surface treatment apparatus (not shown). The substrate to be processed 9 is placed on a table of the surface treatment apparatus, and the second surface 9b is brought into contact with and adhered to the stage. Since the degree of roughening of the second surface 913 is small, the substrate to be processed 9 can be surely adsorbed and held on the stage. Next, the first surface % is subjected to surface treatment such as washing, surface modification, etching, ashing, or film formation. Since the first surface 9a is prevented from being roughened in the roughening treatment, good surface treatment can be performed. Further, various electronic component layers such as an insulating layer, a conductive layer, and a semiconductor layer formed by the above surface treatment can have excellent quality. After the surface treatment of the first surface 9a, the substrate to be processed 9 is carried out from the stage. Since the fine unevenness is formed by the roughening treatment on the second surface 9b, the substrate to be processed 9 can be easily separated from the stage. As a result, the substrate to be processed 9 can be prevented from being bent or broken. Next, other embodiments of the present invention will be described. In the following embodiments, the same reference numerals are given to the same parts as those in the above-described embodiments, and the description thereof will be omitted as appropriate. As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, in the atmospheric pressure etching apparatus u of the second embodiment, the transport mechanism 30 of the substrate to be processed 9 includes a transport roller conveyor 33, a processing roller conveyor 34, and a carry-out roller. Conveyor 35. Each of the rotary conveyors 33, 34, and 35 has a plurality of roller shafts 31 arranged in the X direction (the horizontal direction in Fig. 3), and a conveying roller 32 provided on each of the roller shafts 31. The loading roller conveyor 33 is disposed on the one end side (the right end side in Fig. 3) of the processing unit 2 in the X direction, and carries the substrate to be processed 9 into the processing space 23. Processing transfer 154223. Doc • 21· 201145381 The conveyor 34 is disposed below the bottom plate 22 and conveys the substrate 9 to be processed in the processing space 23. The unloading roller conveyor 35 is disposed on the other end side (the left end side in Fig. 3) of the processing unit 2 in the X direction, and carries the substrate to be processed 9 out of the processing space 23. At the lower portion of the bottom plate 22, a plurality of shields 70 for processing the roller conveyor 34 are provided. The shield 70 corresponds to the roller shaft 3 j of the processing roller conveyor 34. The shield 70 is formed in a valley shape extending in the axial direction y of the roller shaft 31. Each of the shields 7 is accommodated with a corresponding roller shaft 31 and a conveying roller 32. The upper surface of the shield 70 is open and touches the lower surface of the bottom plate 22. The shield 70 may be made of a metal such as aluminum or a resin such as vinyl. A resin film having high fluorine resistance and plasma resistance such as polytetrafluoroethylene may be provided on the inner surface of the protective cover 70. As shown in Fig. 4, the roller shaft 31 of the processing roller conveyor 34 penetrates the protective cover 7〇. End walls 74 on both sides in the length direction. An airtight bearing 75 is provided on the end wall 74. The hermetic bearing 75 rotatably supports the roller shaft 31. Further, the hermetic bearing 75 hermetically seals between the roller shaft 31 and the end wall 74. The structural member of the hermetic bearing is preferably composed of a resin having high fluorine resistance and plasma resistance such as polytetrafluoroethylene. The inside of the side shield 70 communicates only with the processing space 23 via the perforation 25 . According to the second embodiment, it is possible to prevent the outside air (air or the like) below the atmospheric pressure etching device from being introduced into the processing space 23 through the roller holes 25. Further, when the processing gas of the processing space 23 passes through the Wei hole 25 toward the lower side of the bottom plate 22; when the gas is leaked, the processing gas can be sealed inside the protective cover 7?. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the process gas from leaking to the outside. 154223. Doc -22· 201145381 The suction nozzle 50 of the second embodiment is disposed at the intermediate portion of the bottom plate 22 in the x direction. The top plate 21 and the bottom plate 22 protrude from the other end side (the left end side in FIG. 3) of the suction nozzle 50 in the X direction, that is, the downstream side in the conveying direction of the substrate 9. Only the portion between the corresponding discharge nozzle 40 and the suction nozzle 50 in the top plate 21 may be maintained at a set temperature as an adjustment mechanism, or the entire top plate 21 may be maintained at a set temperature as an adjustment mechanism. Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 show a third embodiment of the present invention. The atmospheric pressure etching apparatus 1B of this embodiment does not have the bottom plate 22. The processing space 23 is formed by ejecting the entire upper surface of the nozzle 4 and the lower surface of the top plate 21. There is a processing environment containing HF vapor and water vapor in the processing space 23. By adjusting the length of the ejection nozzle 4's X direction, the length of the processing space 23 can be adjusted, thereby increasing or decreasing the processing time of the substrate to be processed 9 in contact with the processing environment. As a result, the etching amount of the second surface 9b can be adjusted to a desired amount. As shown in Fig. 5, the atmospheric pressure (four) device 1B includes a gas suction system 8A. The gas suction system 80 includes a suction pump 81 and a pair of auxiliary plates 82 and materials. The pair of auxiliary plates 82, 84 are vertically disposed on both sides in the X direction while sandwiching the discharge nozzles 4 (). The upper ends of the auxiliary plates 82, 84 are aligned in the same plane as the upper surface of the discharge nozzle 4q. The thickness ❹ of the auxiliary plates 82 and 84 is about _~ ten or more mm, and here is about 5 mm. As shown in Fig. 6, the outer surface of the loading/unloading nozzle 40 on the loading side (the right side) extends in the y direction orthogonal to the x direction. As shown in Figs. 5 and 6, a suction path 83 is formed between the auxiliary plate 82 and the outer surface of the take-out side of the discharge nozzle 4A. The suction path is connected to the suction fruit 81 at the lower end of the τ θ π _. The upper end of the suction path 83 (the suction side J moving the processing space 23 of the moving side 154223. The ends of doc -23· 201145381 are connected. The opening width of the suction port of the suction path 83 in the x direction is, for example, about several mm to several tens of mm, and here is about 1 mm. A carry-in port 26 is disposed in the vicinity of the suction port of the suction path 83. The carry-in port % is formed by the end portion of the upper end portion of the auxiliary plate 82 and the loading side of the top plate 21. The carry-in port 26 is connected to the end of the loading side of the processing space 23, and is connected to the suction path 83. As shown in Fig. 6, the auxiliary plate on the carry-out side (the left side in the drawing) extends in the y direction along the outer surface of the discharge nozzle 40. As shown in Fig. 5 and the circle 6, a suction path 85 is formed between the auxiliary plate 84 and the outer surface of the discharge nozzle 40 on the carry-out side. The lower end of the suction path 85 is connected to the suction pump ". The upper end (suction port) of the suction path = 85 is connected to the end of the unloading side of the processing space 23. The opening of the suction path 85 is open in the x direction The width is, for example, a few bribes to several tens of mm, and is about 1 mm. The outlet 27 is disposed in the vicinity of the suction port of the suction path 85. The outlet u is supported by the upper end portion of the auxiliary plate 84 and the top plate 21 The end portion of the carry-out side is formed. The carry-out port 27 is connected to the end portion of the processing space 23 on the carry-out side, and is connected to the suction path 85. The ends of the width direction y of the y are respectively provided at the ends of y. As shown in the processing unit 2, the end wall 86 has an end wall 86. The end wall 86 closes the suction path 83 and the portion. In the atmospheric pressure etching device (7) of the third embodiment, the second surface 9b of the processed base phase When the shallow etching is performed, the plasma-treated process gas is ejected from the outlet 41 into the processing chamber 23. At the same time, the pumping system 81' drives the gas suction system 81' to draw gas from the suction paths 83, 85. Figure 7 (4) 154223. Doc •24· 201145381 In the state in which the substrate to be processed 9 is not introduced into the processing space 23, the processing gas gl is shunted to the upper side of the discharge port 41 in the processing space 23 as the machine-side loading side (right side in the figure) The airflow to the carry-out side (the left side in the drawing) of the airflow is sent to the suction path 83 as it flows from the loading side of the processing space 23 to the loading side. The process gas flowing to the carry-out side is sucked into the suction path 85 from the end portion of the carry-out side of the processing space 23. Further, the outside air enters the carry-in port 26 by the gas suction of the gas suction system 80. This outside air is sucked into the suction path 83 from the carry-in port 26. Similarly, the outside air also enters the outlet 27. This external gas is sucked into the suction path 85 from the outlet 27. Therefore, the outside air hardly flows into the processing space 23 t between the upper surface of the ejection nozzle 40 and the top plate 21. Therefore, the composition of the gas in the processing environment in the processing space 23 is substantially the same as the composition of the processing gas itself after the plasma. That is, the HF partial pressure and the water vapor partial pressure in the treatment space 23 are substantially equal to the hf partial pressure and the water vapor partial pressure of the process gas itself. Therefore, even if the humidity, temperature, and the like of the outside air fluctuate, the HF partial pressure and the water vapor partial pressure in the processing space 23 hardly change. As shown in FIG. 7(b), when the end portion of the substrate to be processed 9 is carried into the carry-in port 26, the opening area of the carry-in port 26 is narrowed, and the flow resistance is increased. Therefore, the external gas S2 flowing in from the carry-in port 26 is The flow rate is reduced or the flow rate is increased. The inflowing external gas g2 includes an external gas g2a that passes through the upper side of the substrate 9 to be processed and an external gas g2b that passes through the lower side of the second surface 9b. Among them, the inflow external air S2b on the lower side is immediately sucked into the suction path 83 from the inlet 26 . Therefore, the inflowing external gas g2b on the lower side hardly enters to 154223. Doc -25- 201145381 Processing space 23. In the state where the end portion of the substrate to be processed 9 is located at the carry-in port 26, the upper inflowing outside air g2a is wound down to the lower end surface of the substrate to be processed 9 and then sucked into the suction path 83. Therefore, the inflow external gas g2a on the upper side hardly enters into the processing space 23. Therefore, when the end portion of the substrate to be processed 9 is carried in from the carry-in port 26, even if the flow rate and flow rate of the inflowing external gas § 2 are changed, the gas composition in the processing space 23 can be suppressed or prevented from fluctuating. As shown in Fig. 7(c), the substrate to be processed 9 is later covered on the suction path. If this state is formed, the portion of the processing space 23 on the upper side than the substrate to be processed 9 (hereinafter referred to as " In the i-th processing space portion 23a"), the suction force of the gas suction system 80 is weak, and the suction flow rate of the external air is reduced. The upper external air g2a can flow into the carry-in port 26 by the adhesiveness with the upper surface of the substrate to be processed 9, but the inflow amount is sucked by the suction system 80 (Fig. 7 (a) to (b)). Very small compared to. Therefore, the processing environment between the top plate 21 and the substrate to be processed 9 is maintained to be substantially the same gas composition as the processing gas itself. The amount of inflow of the outside air g2b from the lower side of the substrate to be processed 9 is increased by an amount corresponding to the amount of inflow of the upper side external gas g2a. However, even if the flow rate is increased, almost all of the inflowing external gas g2b is sucked into the suction path 83 immediately. Therefore, the outside air g2b hardly enters into the processing space 23, and the processing environment of the processing space between the substrate to be processed 9 and the discharge nozzle 4 (hereinafter referred to as "the second processing space portion 23b") is maintained. The process gas consists essentially of the same gas. The fluctuation of the external gas inflow as described above is also generated in the same place as J54223. Doc -26- 201145381 When the substrate 9 is removed from the processing space 23 In this case, the flow rate and flow rate of the external gas that has been moved out are changed. & almost all of the inflowing external gas from the outlet 25 is sucked into the suction path 85. Therefore, at the time of carrying out, the composition of the gas in the moxibustion space 23 is maintained to be substantially constant despite the flow rate or flow rate of the inflowing external gas. In the etching apparatus 18, even if the flow rate or flow rate of the external gas §2 flowing into the processing space 23 through the inlet 26 and the outlet 27 is changed as the substrate 9 is loaded and unloaded, the processing can be performed. The gas composition, and then the partial pressure of water vapor in the treatment environment in the space are maintained to be the same as those of the process gas itself. As a result, it is possible to prevent the money engraving processing of the second surface 9b from becoming uneven. Further, it is possible to prevent the humidity of the treatment environment between the top plate 21 and the substrate to be processed 9 from rising, thereby preventing the formation of the condensation layer on the second surface. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the first surface 9& Even when the humidity of the outside air is extremely high with respect to the processing gas and the humidity of the processing environment in the processing space 23, it is possible to reliably prevent the formation of the condensed layer in the first surface %, thereby reliably avoiding the i-th surface 9a. Etched. Further, as will be described later, in the state of FIG. 7(c), even when the outside air g2a is caught in the first processing space portion 23a, only the first amount can be controlled by controlling the amount of the winding or the like. 2 faces 9b are roughened. The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. For example, in the above embodiment, the i-th surface 9a is provided with the second surface 9b on which the main surface of the electronic component should be roughened (etched) as the back surface, but it may be ith 154223. Doc -27· 201145381 The surface 9a is the back surface, and the second surface % to be roughened (etched) is the main surface on which the electronic component should be placed. Both the first surface and the second surface may be surfaces on which electronic components are provided. The substrate to be processed is not limited to glass, and may be a semiconductor wafer or the like. Further, the substrate to be processed is not limited to the substrate on which the electronic component is formed or the substrate for the semiconductor device. The object to be etched is not limited to Si〇2, and may be SiN, Si, Sic, SiOC or the like. A film containing a ruthenium-containing material may be formed on the substrate 9 to be processed, and the device 1 of the present invention may also be a film for the film. The temperature adjustment mechanism of the first surface 9a and the second surface 9b of the substrate 9 to be processed may be an electrothermal heater, a heat medium heater, or a radiant heater other than the plate heater. As the heat medium heater, for example, the top plate 21 may have a heat medium flow path through which a heat medium such as water having a temperature is adjusted, or an accumulation chamber in which the heat medium is stored. = The temperature can be adjusted by heating the heat medium accumulated in the accumulating chamber. In the first embodiment, the temperature of the entire top plate 21 can be adjusted, and the temperature of the portion of the top plate 21 (e.g., the center portion or the end portion) can be locally adjusted. The temperature adjustment mechanism (heater) can be separately provided separately from the top plate 21, and after heating the top plate 21 by the temperature adjustment mechanism (heater), the second surface % of the substrate to be processed 9 is heated via the top plate 21. The second surface 91) of the substrate to be processed can be cooled, whereby the temperature of the second surface is adjusted to a temperature lower than a desired temperature of the condensation point. For example, the cooling mechanism in which the cooling medium such as cold water is supplied to the bottom plate and the bottom plate 22 is cooled, thereby cooling the second surface 9b of the substrate to be processed, and the 'second surface 91' in this case becomes the patent application scope.

Doc •28- 201145381 The temperature of the second surface 9b is adjusted to be 0〇C to 10°c lower than the above condensation point by the cooling mechanism. The humidity around the device 1 can also be adjusted to adjust the water vapor partial pressure in the treatment environment. The humidity control mechanism around the situation has become an element of the "regulatory body" of the patent application. The process gas can be provided with a certain degree of moisture. The water vapor partial pressure in the treatment environment can also be largely dependent on the water addition amount of the water addition portion 12. In this case, the water adding unit 12 is an element of the "adjustment mechanism" of the patent application. The plasma generating unit 60 may be disposed outside the discharge nozzle 4A or may be disposed to be separated from the discharge nozzle 40. The raw material gas can be electrically charged by the electropolymerization unit 6 to generate a processing gas, and then the processing gas can be sent to the discharge nozzle. The process gas is not limited to being formed by plasma formation.

Therefore, the results of Example 1 and theoretical calculations can be confirmed. The data is consistent. Therefore, when setting the processing conditions, the map illustrated in the figure is used to treat the hf partial pressure and the partial pressure of the environment corresponding to the point on the above graph compared to the room temperature or the substrate to be processed 9 The gas-liquid equilibrium curve corresponding to the initial temperature is located on the gas phase side, and is set on the liquid phase side compared to the gas-liquid equilibrium curve corresponding to the heater set temperature, and the heater set temperature or treatment is set.

Fig. 12 is a view showing the condensation conditions of the HF_H2 system in the etch device iB of the third embodiment (Fig. 5 to Fig. 7). In the silver engraving device, the external gas is almost not entered into the processing space. In the case of 23, the gas composition of the treatment environment is substantially the same as the gas composition of the plasma after the plasma treatment.

Further, the HF partial pressure of the plasma after the plasma treatment is, for example, 4.2 Torr (broken line L3 in Fig. 12). The intersection point B between the broken line L2 and the broken line L3 indicates the HF and HsO partial pressures of the plasma after the plasma treatment, and further indicates the HF and the partial pressure of the helium in the processing environment in the processing space 23.
