Stripping of polymers are often done by wet chemistry in a solvent that dissolves the given polymer. If wet chemistry cannot be used or a more controled etch of the polymer is needed a plasma system is used instead. Plasma ashers are design for removing polymers in primarily oxygen plasmas. It you need a more directional etch with a masking material RIE2 or ASE can be used. | Stripping of polymers are often done by wet chemistry in a solvent that dissolves the given polymer.
