Process C

Unless otherwise stated, the content of this page was created by the dry etch group at DTU Nanolab

Process C is intended to be used on features in the sub 2-3 µm range. The recipe was run on a 100 mm Nanolab wafer with a test pattern of a series of lines and dots with sizes ranging from 30 nm to 300 nm. The etch load was extremely high, approaching 100 %.

The 100 mm wafers had an Al mask made by lift-off:

  1. 80 nm of spin coated ZEP520A E-beam resist
  2. Patterned by E-beam lithography
  3. 20 nm Al deposited and patterned by lift-off
  4. ~ 99 % etch load
