==Dry etch with Hard mask==
''By Martin Lind Ommen - ''fall 2016'' '' <br>
Testing selectivities for SiO<sub>2</sub> etching with hard masks on AOE and ICP metal with different recipes.All tests are done with 100% etching load<br>
[[File:Dry etching by Martin Lind Ommen Fall 2016.png|600px]]<br>
MLO_psi is the version of SiO2_psi on labadviser that is shown under low line with reduction.<br>
The recipe ICP is on ICP metal call: A SiO2 etch with C4F8 with resist mask<br>
I had problems with this recipe - it gave polymer on the surface, therefor I do not have more info on that.<br>
