Under a known chamber cleaning condition (pressure = 100 mTorr; input high frequency power = 300 W; gas flow rate = 50 cc / min), 3-tetrafluorooxetane was subjected to 30 cleaning.
When used for a minute, the reaction by-product adhering to the chamber can be sufficiently and quickly removed, and the chamber is practically used without damaging the chamber.
