We have investigated the mechanism of silicon thin film deposition by ArF excimer laser irradiation of silane gas diluted with argon. The Si films were deposited by a focused laser beam irradiating in parallel to silicon and silicon dioxide substrates at a gas flow rate of 20 SCCM, total pressure of
## Deep trenches were etched in silicon with SF, plasmas in a simple RIE system. Two process factors influence directly the silicon surface roughness generated by these processes: the dc bias voltage and the presence of oxygen. In general, the roughness increases when the dc bias voltage becomes mor
