1. A method of in-situ ashing, comprising:

  • introducing a process gas containing an oxygen-containing gas;

    generating a plasma in a plasma processing chamber;

    exposing a substrate to the plasma, the substrate residing on top of a substrate holder;

    performing a first ashing step by applying a first bias to the substrate holder; and

    performing a second ashing step by applying a second bias to the substrate holder, wherein the second bias is greater than the first bias and the chamber pressure in the second ashing step is less than 20 mTorr.
