ABC Three-factor interactions (3-fi’s): It is defined as the average difference between the interaction effects of AB at each level of C: The same procedure is used to define the AC and BC effects. These effects are called 2-factor or 1st order interactions (usually shortened to 2-fi’s).

There are three quantitative factors-gap between electrodes, gas flow and the RF power applied to the cathode. The response is the etch rate for silicon nitride. Each treatment combination was replicated twice and the 16 experimental runs were done in completely random order. • • • SV Trt Error Total DF 7 8 15 SS 513,400.4375 18,020.5000 531,420.9347 MS 73342.9196 s2E =2252.5625 F 32.56 μijk = μ + τi + βj + (τ β)ij + γk + (τ γ)ik + (βγ)jk + (τ βγ)ijk The ANOVA table (from JMP) is 7 Since this is a completely randomized design with 2 replications per treatment combination, the standard analysis is carried out as follows: The model is yijkl = μijk + ijkl, i = 1, 2; j = 1, 2; k = 1, 2; l = 1, 2 iid where ijkl ∼ N (0, σ 2).

The unreplicated 2k factorial is discussed in Section 6.5. 6. The general 2k factorial is discussed in Section 6.4 5. See Example 6.1 in Section 6.3 of Montgomery. 4. In general, in a 2k experiment we can find (2k -1) orthogonal contrasts to partition the treatment sum of squares. 3. In a 23 experiment, there are 8 different treatment combinations and hence there are 7 d.f. for treatment. What we have done so far is to partition these 7 d.f. to 7 orthogonal single d.f. contrasts. 5 ABC + + + + Stat 402 (Spring 2016): Slide set 10 2.

When an estimate of the error variance is available, as part of the analysis the estimates of effects are usually reported (instead of an analysis of variance table) as follows: 4. Other methods have to be devised to determine the effects that are significant from such experiments. See Section 6.5 for a discussion of the analysis of a single replicate of a 2k factorial experiment. 3. The result of not replicating an experiment is that there will be no d.f. available for estimating the error variance on; hence the anova table cannot be used for testing hypotheses concerning main effects and interactions. 2. Many factorial experiments in industry are not replicated experiments, since even for a moderate number of factors the total number of treatment combinations in a 2k factorial is large. Thus limited availability of resources or high costs may inhibit experimenters from replicating factorial experiments. 2(2 ) Effects Main Effects Gap(A) C2F6 Flow (B) Power(C) Two-factor Interactions AB AC BC Three-factor Interactions ABC 5.625 ±54.82 -24.875 ±54.82 -153.625±54.82 -2.125±54.82 -101.625±54.82 7.375±54.82 306.125±54.82 Estimate(E) ± t-value × s.e.(E) = 2 √2252.56 = 23.73; t0.025,8 = 2.31 & 2.31 × 23.73 = 54.82 3 Thus approximate 95% CI’s are: n×2k 11 Stat 402 (Spring 2016): Slide set 10 Stat 402 (Spring 2016): Slide set 10 Stat 402 (Spring 2016): Slide set 10 9 ABC + + + + 45 8 5.625 16 1.

The main effect of a factor should be individually interpreted only if there is no evidence that the variable interacts with other variables. When there is evidence of one or more such interaction effects, the interacting variables should be considered jointly. In the above table there are large Gap (A) and Power (C ) effects, but since a large AC effect indicates interaction between the two, we make no statement of Gap (A) and Power (C ) effects alone. The effects of Gap (A) and Power (C) can best be considered using the two-way table of means shown below and the corresponding graph shown next page: Discussion • 6 0.8 597.0 1056.75 1.2 649.0 801.5 - Gap Stat 402 (Spring 2016): Slide set 10 13 The AC interaction evidently arises due to a difference in effect of the change in power at the two different gaps.
