Aluminium etch

Unless otherwise stated, all content on this page was created by Jonas Michael-Lindhard, DTU Nanolab

The aluminium etch has two steps:

Breakthrough
The breakthrough step is designed to break through the native aluminium oxide layer that is present on all aluminium surfaces. The duration of this step should remain fixed.
Main
The main step etches bulk aluminium.
Al etch
Parameter Process step
Breakthrough Main
Time (secs) 20 40 (variable)
HBr (sccm) - 15
Cl2 (sccm) 20 25
Pressure (mTorr) 2, Strike 3 sec@5 mTorr 1
Coil power (W) 600 500
Platen power (W) 125 100
Temperature (oC) 20 20
Spacers (mm) 30 30
Results
Etch rate ~350 nm/min (depending on features size and etch load)
