The x values and standardized residuals for the chlorine flow/etch rate data of Exercise 52 (Section 12.4) are displayed in the accompanying table. Construct a standardized residual plot and comment on its appearance.
Reference exercise 52 (Section 12.4)
Plasma etching is essential to the fine-line pattern transfer in current semiconductor processes. The article “Ion Beam- Assisted Etching of Aluminum with Chlorine” (J. of the Electrochem. Soc., 1985: 2010– 2012) gives the accompanying data (read from a graph) on chlorine flow (x, in SCCM) through a nozzle used in the etching mechanism and etch rate (y, in 100 A/min).
a. Does the simple linear regression model specify a useful relationship between chlorine flow and etch rate?
b. Estimate the true average change in etch rate associated with a 1-SCCM increase in flow rate using a 95% confidence interval, and interpret the interval.
c. Calculate a 95% CI for , the true average etch rate when flow = 3.0 Has this average been precisely estimated?
d. Calculate a 95% PI for a single future observation on etch rate to be made when flow = 3.0. Is the prediction likely to be accurate?
e. Would the 95% CI and PI when flow = 2.5 be wider or narrower than the corresponding intervals of parts (c) and (d)? Answer without actually computing the intervals.
f. Would you recommend calculating a 95% PI for a flow of 6.0? Explain.
