# Iodine etch: KI:I<sub>2</sub>:H<sub>2</sub>O - 100g:25g:500ml - standard at Danchip. Can be used with AZ resist as mask.
# Iodine etch: KI:I<sub>2</sub>:H<sub>2</sub>O - 100g:25g:500ml - standard at DTU Nanolab. Can be used with AZ resist as mask.
# Aqua Regia (Kongevand): HNO<sub>3</sub>:HCl - 1:3 - A very strong acid which will etch most metals and is therefore used when you wish to remove all the gold from your wafer. '''You must be very careful when working with Aqua Regia (Kongevand). It can generate nitrogen oxide gases which are very toxic!!'''
