==SiO2 Etch using aSi as masking material==
{{CC-bghe2}} <br>
I was starting up development of SiO2 etch using aSi as masking material. This is on pause because the results did not look promishing on high aspect ratio structures wit DUV pattern due to large faceting on the aSi mask. I turned to Cr mask instead  <br>
The samples I use are:
*6" Si afters with oxide (2µm),
*aSi (~300nm),
*Neg. DUV reist (~60nm barc, ~350 nm resist)
*Reticle: Danchip/Triple-D
*Dose 230 J/m2
First I need to make sure that the resist work for pattering the aSi layer is good. If the resist is not good the final etch will also not be good.


===DUV optimization===
Dose test with the doses (J/m2): 200, 210, 220, 230, 240, 250, 270, 280
The aim was to get good line for 400nm pitch/200nm lines
