I recorded the end point signal and tried three different stopping times to figure out when to stop the etch. I want to find out how I can use the end point signal to get the best etch result; Etch through - also in the small patterns without too much over etch. | I recorded the end point signal and tried three different stopping times to figure out when to stop the etch.

I was looking at trenches with sizes ranging from 200 nm to 2 µm in width. The masking materials was negative DUV resist: NUV 2300-0.5 of approximately 500 nm. | I was looking at trenches with sizes ranging from 200 nm to 2 µm in width.
