Process information

Standard recipes

• Barc etch

Hardware changes

A few hardware modifications have been made on the Pegasus 3/4 since it was installed in 2019. The changes are listed below.

• Change of showerhead in 2019

• Addition of Picoscope oscilloscope system for process monitoring in February 2019

Other etch processes

• Continuous nanostructure etches including nano1.42

• Etch processes with DUV masks

• BARC etches

• Isotropic etches

More processes, such as for DUV resist, are currently being developed, but they are not quite 'ready for publication' at LabAdviser so please contact Jonas (mailto:jmli@dtu.dk) for more information.

Advanced Processing - Henri Jansen style

• Etch silicon nanostructures
• Etch high aspect ratio silicon microstructures
• Etch 3 dimensional silicon microstructures
• Etch black silicon
• Using OES to monitor etch process

Characterisation of etched trenches

Comparing differences in etched trenches requires a set of common parameters for each trench. Click HERE to find more information about the parameters used on the DRIE-Pegasus process development.
