Development work: SiO2 etch with resist mask, sample on carrier (Si carrier)

By Berit Herstrøm @danchip, January-Marts 2018

The challenge was to develop a SiO2 etching recipe that can be used for samples on a carrier. Samples that cannot be clamped and cooled. The goal was to keep a good selectivity to the resist mask and get a vertical sidewall, without getting a lot of redeposition on the sidewalls. The testing regime was using both the coil power and the platen power with C4F8/H2 chemistry.
