'''SRN (LPCVD) etch uniformity on 6″ wafer with ''Slowetch'' recipe'''
'''SRN (LPCVD) etch uniformity on 6″ wafer with ''Slowetch'' recipe'''


[[File:SRN_slowetch_data_100%load.png|400px|left|thumb|Note: The ''slowetch'' recipe has faster etch recipe significantly improves etch rate (~30 nm/min) but leads to reduced uniformity (~2.5%) compared to the slower recipes (<1% uniformity). This highlights a trade-off between throughput and etch uniformity in SRN processing.]]
