Based on the so called DREM process, there are two recipes on DRIE-Pegasus 1 which are suitable for etching silicon nanostructures. The recipes are called '''DREM 1kW nano''' and '''DREM 0.5kW nano'''. In '''DREM 1kW nano''' a higher coil power and larger gas flow rates are applied, making it suitable for etching high aspect ratio nanostructures (AR around 25 can be achieved depending on the patterns and resist used). In '''DREM 0.5kW nano''' both the coil power and gas flow rates are reduced, thus the scallop size can be reduced remarkably down to 16nm, giving a smooth sidewall on the nanostructures, while the aspect ratio can be limited. The recipes can be chosen based on the purpose of users, and the parameters are listed as below (different parameters are highlighted): | Based on the so called DREM process, there are two recipes on DRIE-Pegasus 1 which are suitable for etching silicon nanostructures.

Based on the so called DREM process, there are two recipes on DRIE-Pegasus 1 which are suitable for etching silicon nanostructures. The recipes are called DREM 1kW nano and DREM 0.5kW nano. In DREM 1kW nano a higher coil power and larger gas flow rates are applied, making it suitable for etching high aspect ratio nanostructures (AR around 25 can be achieved depending on the patterns and resist used). In DREM 0.5kW nano both the coil power and gas flow rates are reduced, thus the scallop size can be reduced remarkably down to 16nm, giving a smooth sidewall on the nanostructures, while the aspect ratio can be limited. The recipes can be chosen based on the purpose of users, and the parameters are listed as below (different parameters are highlighted):
Below are some etched silicon nanostructures with the recipe DREM 1kW nano
Below are some etched silicon nanostructures with the recipe DREM 0.5kW nano
Extra caution is required for modification of recipe parameters, it is recommended to monitor the picoscope signals during the process, the process should be aborted manually if a high reflective power is observed either from coil or platen generators, thus hardware damage can be avoied.
