=== Isotropic etch ===


Some isotropic etches were performed, intercalated with anisotropic etches. The nanoholes are 200nm wide, with 400nm pitch with 100 nm Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> mask. The recipe presented in the table was repeated either 2 or 3 times in order to achieve the picture results. During the recipe, Pegasus 2 conditions were: Outer EM=10A, T=20°C, no clamping, no He BGC and all heaters OFF.

Trying to oxide the sample before doing the isotropic etch can help to protect the top part, maintaining a more straight profile. However, after trying to do an oxidation step on Pegasus 2, with 3% valve control. 200 sccm O<sub>2</sub> and 2000W of coil power, the oxide layer was only 3.2 nm.
