Abstract
During the cleaning of CVD chamber walls with an etch gas of NF.sub.3, the reaction chamber walls are heated to above 65.degree. C. while maintaining a relatively low chamber pressure during etching of the chamber with NF.sub.3. Any reaction of the NF.sub.3 with the quartz (SiO.sub.2) walls of the chamber, and with any reaction by-products remaining in the chamber, will not condense on the walls of the chamber, since, at this relatively high temperature, these reaction products will be volatile and will be purged away with the NF.sub.3.
