====Adding electromagnets (EM) to see if that could improve the uniformity====
Recipe used: SiO2_res_10<br>
[[File:Contour Plot SNR_a06 EM_02_30 white to blue.jpg|400px|left|thumb|SRN etch with SiO2_res and EM:02/30. The electromagnets did not change much. Average etch rate: 166.5 nm/min +-12% ]]
[[File:Contour Plot SNR_a12 etch rate.jpg|400px|left|thumb|SRN etch with SiO2_res and EM:10/0. The outer coil just seems to make it worse. Average etch rate: 114 nm/min +-60% ]]
