Abstract

See full text

Methods are disclosed for modifying surfaces of a structure used in manufacturing semiconductor devices wherein the structures are formed from organic polymers. In addition to the surface of the structure, which is over a core, a portion of the structure slightly below the surface is also modified via fluorination of the organic polymer. The fluorination is achieved by exposing the structure to a mixture of gases including fluorine in a range from about 0.01% to about 10% and inert gas comprising a remainder of the mixture of gases. Fluorination occurs from the surface into the core to a depth of no more than about 1 micron and such that a portion of the core below more than 1 micron from the surface is not fluorinated.
