Mechanisms for forming semiconductor device structure with feature opening
A method for forming a semiconductor device structure is provided. The method includes forming a material layer over a semiconductor substrate and forming a hard mask layer over the material layer. The hard mask layer contains metal. The method also includes forming an opening in the hard mask layer using a plasma etching process, and a gas mixture used in the plasma etching process includes a nitrogen-containing gas, a halogen-containing gas, and a carbon-containing gas. The method further includes etching the material layer through the opening in the hard mask layer to form a feature opening in the material layer.
