The etch rate is faster near the edge. Therefor the trenches are in general wider at the edges. Here all structures has almost been etched down to the SiO2 layer and the dimensions are close to being unaffected. Especially the smallest trenches seems to be not all etched down to the SiO2. Also they are not equally wide. The sidewalls are close to 90 degrees; Sometimes a little positive and sometimes a little negative. To improve more the etch time should be longer - probably especially on the barc etch. | |||
