The "chemistry_pair" column should be a combined string in the format " / ". Sort the results by activation type in ascending order and then by the number of semiconductors in descending order.

Detailed: Collect all anisotropic SiO₂ ALE processes based on C₄F₈/Ar plasma from Table III and Table IV in the article "Atomic Layer Etching of SiO₂ for Nanoscale Semiconductor Devices: A Review". For each process, list the target selectivity pair (SiO₂/Si or SiO₂/Si₃N₄), selectivity range (if available), selectivity improvement method, chamber-wall treatment (none, O₂ cleaning, wall heating), and etching rate. Ensure that the precursor chemistry and removal gas are the same in both tables and restrict the results to processes using C₄F₈/Ar plasma. Sort the results by etching rate in descending order.
