An example of directional etching for nanohole arrays of less than 500nm in diameter. (Image: A*STAR Institute of Materials Research and Engineering) Wet etching can be classified into two main types ...
Quadrupole mass-spectroscopy has reported significant neutral and ionic species in the unique C 5 HF 7 /O 2 /Ar plasma, including C x F y (X>2), C x HF y, and C x F y (Y/X<2). Using C 5 HF 7 /O 2 /Ar ...
Trends in advanced device fabrication require combined lithography-etching multi-patterning sequences and self-aligned multi-patterning to form devices’ finest features at subwavelength dimensions. As ...
(Nanowerk News) Imec and KLA Tencor have established a metrology method for optimizing the etch rate uniformity (ERU) in a transformer coupled plasma (TCP) reactor. The proposed metrology method makes ...
