Wet etching of chromium at DTU Nanolab is done making your own set up in a beaker in a fume hood - preferably in D-3. You can see the APV [http://labmanager.dtu.dk/d4Show.php?id=4748&mach=368 here].
Wet etching of chromium at DTU Nanolab is done making your own set up in a beaker in a fume hood - preferably in D-3. Make sure no other setup is present in the fume hood before you start. You can see the APV [http://labmanager.dtu.dk/d4Show.php?id=4748&mach=368 here].


We use the following solution to etch chromium:

PECVD SiO2 and LPCVD SiN coated wafers have been immersed in Cr etch 18 for 10min. Thickness wise: absolutely no changes (roughness after etch not measured)

Normally the etch is reused (if you etch Molybdenum never reuse), but if you need to dispose it, collect it in a bottle marked O waste.
