Upgrading the silicon etch capability at Danchip with the DRIE-Pegasus has pushed our old ASE (Advanced Silicon Etcher) out of the line so that it now only serves as backup silicon dry etcher. We have therefore decided that the ASE must be converted to a polymer etcher instead. Hence, it will join the plasma asher and to some extend the RIE's where polymer etching is allowed. In RIE1 it is only for removing photo resist before or after a RIE etch if the plasma asher cannot be used for some reason. On RIE2 you can get allowance for some other polymer etching but you have to ask first.
