== The ICP Metal Etcher ==


The ICP Metal Etcher allows you to dry etch a small set of metals that includes aluminium, titanium, chromium, titanium tungsten and molybdenum (along with the related oxides and nitrides). It is, despite its name, strictly forbidden to etch (or expose to plasma) other metals. In order to do so use the [[Specific Process Knowledge/Etch/IBE/IBSD Ionfab 300|IBE/IBSD Ionfab 300]].
