 In these samples, the hard mask, Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, was coated in 150 mm Si wafers using the ALD 1 tool. These sets of samples also had the lithography process done in the DUV stepper to deposit 65 nm of BARC and 750 nm of DUV resist. Three different patterns were created after the development:
-# 1 µm width pillars with 1 µm pitch (50 nm Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> + 65 nm BARC + 750 nm DUV).
+# 1 µm width pillars with 1 µm pitch (50 nm Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> + 65 nm BARC + 750 nm DUV resist).
-# 1 µm width holes with 1 µm pitch (50 nm Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> + 65 nm BARC + 750 nm DUV).
+# 1 µm width holes with 1 µm pitch (50 nm Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> + 65 nm BARC + 750 nm DUV resist).
-# 200 nm width nanoholes with 400 nm pitch (100 nm Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> + 65 nm BARC + 750 nm DUV).
+# 200 nm width nanoholes with 400 nm pitch (100 nm Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> + 65 nm BARC + 750 nm DUV resist).
 The Si / Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> / BARC / DUV stack was first processed in Pegasus 2 to etch the BARC layer (recipe named ''"barc gentle etch"'', ER=5.42nm/min), and the alumina was etched in the III-V ICP, using a BCl<sub>3</sub> / Ar recipe, which has an ER = 0.45 nm/min. With the pillars and holes samples, the BARC was also etched for 12 min on Pegasus 2, followed by 90 minutes on the III-V ICP. <br>
