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.
