Then, a secondary bombardment is performed using plasma generated by the ionization of reactive gases such as oxygen and hydrogen. Simultaneously, key process conditions such as process gas flow rate, wafer orientation bias, processing time, cavity vacuum, radio frequency power, plasma parameters, and wafer spacing are systematically controlled. This step-by-step modification process achieves nanoscale modification of the crystal surface, effectively repairing surface damage caused by processing and forming a uniformly distributed surface modification layer.
