Temperature control device for processing target object and method of selectively etching nitride film from multilayer film

1. A temperature control device for a processing target object, comprising:

a moving stage allowed to be heated and configured to mount a processing target object on a top surface thereof;

a cooling body allowed to be cooled and fixed at a position under the moving stage;

a shaft, having one end connected to the moving stage; the other end positioned under the cooling body; a first flange provided at the other end; and a second flange provided between the first flange and the cooling body, extended between the one end and the other end;

a driving plate, provided between the first flange and the second flange, having a top surface facing the second flange and a bottom surface opposite to the top surface;

an elastic body provided between the bottom surface of the driving plate and the first flange;

a driving unit configured to move the driving plate up and down; and

a control unit configured to control the driving unit,

wherein the control unit is configured to adjust a contact thermal resistance between the moving stage and the cooling body by adjusting an amount of a downward movement of the driving plate, and

wherein an amount of compression of the elastic body is adjusted as the amount of downward movement on the driving plate is adjusted.

2. The temperature control device of claim 1 ,

wherein the elastic body is a coil-shaped spring, and

the spring is configured to have a natural length or a length longer than the natural length when the driving plate is located at an uppermost position.

3. The temperature control device of claim 1 ,

wherein the driving unit comprises:

a driving shaft extended in a vertical direction and connected to the driving plate; and

a motor configured to move the driving shaft such that the driving plate is moved up and down.

4. The temperature control device of claim 1 ,

wherein the moving stage includes a heater.

5. The temperature control device of claim 1 ,

wherein a path for a coolant is formed within the cooling body.

6. A method of selectively etching a nitride film from a processing target object, which has a multilayer film in which an oxide film and the nitride film are alternately stacked on top of each other, by using a temperature control device comprising a moving stage allowed to be heated and configured to mount a processing target object on a top surface thereof; a cooling body allowed to be cooled and fixed at a position under the moving stage; a shaft, having one end connected to the moving stage; the other end positioned under the cooling body; a first flange provided at the other end; and a second flange provided between the first flange and the cooling body, extended between the one end and the other end; a driving plate, provided between the first flange and the second flange, having a top surface facing the second flange and a bottom surface opposite to the top surface; an elastic body provided between the bottom surface of the driving plate and the first flange; and a driving unit configured to move the driving plate up and down, the method comprising:

placing the processing target object on the top surface of the moving stage;

bringing the moving stage into contact with the cooling body by moving the driving plate downwards;

adjusting a contact thermal resistance between the moving stage and the cooling body by adjusting an amount of a downward movement of the driving plate;

etching the nitride film selectively from the multilayer film by plasma of a processing gas containing fluorine and hydrogen after the bringing of the moving stage into contact with the cooling body;

spacing the moving stage apart from the cooling body by moving the driving plate upwards after the etching of the nitride film; and

removing a reaction product, which is generated in the etching of the nitride film, by heating the moving stage after the spacing of the moving stage apart from the cooling body.
