The ICP Metal Etcher
Name: PRO ICP
Vendor: STS (now SPTS)
The ICP Metal Etcher allows you to dry etch a small set of metals that includes aluminium, titanium, chromium, titanium tungsten and molybdenum (along with the related oxides and nitrides). It is, despite its name, strictly forbidden to etch (or expose to plasma) other metals. In order to do so use the IBE/IBSD Ionfab 300.
The user manual, user APV and contact information can be found in LabManager:
