Process A

Process A is labelled Large trench (80μm wide) 150μm depth. In the acceptance test the process was run on a 150 mm SPTS wafer with 12-13 % etch load.

Process A specifications
Parameter Specification Average result
Etch rate (µm/min) > 15 18.9
Etched depth (µm) 150 189.1
Scallop size (nm) < 800 718
Profile (degs) 91 +/- 1 91.1
Selectivity to AZ photoresist > 150 310
Undercut (µm) <1.5 0.84
Uniformity (%) < 3.5 3.0
Repeatability (%) <4 0.43

The process developed by SPTS that fulfilled these criteria had the following parameters:
