Isotropic etching

Index Isotropic etching

Isotropic etching (e.g. wet etching or chemical etching) is a method commonly used in semiconductors to remove material from a substrate via a chemical process using an etchant substance. [1]

Dry etching

Dry etching refers to the removal of material, typically a masked pattern of semiconductor material, by exposing the material to a bombardment of ions (usually a plasma of reactive gases such as fluorocarbons, oxygen, chlorine, boron trichloride; sometimes with addition of nitrogen, argon, helium and other gases) that dislodge portions of the material from the exposed surface.

Etching (microfabrication)

Etching is used in microfabrication to chemically remove layers from the surface of a wafer during manufacturing.

Plasma (physics)

Plasma (Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, A Greek English Lexicon, on Perseus) is one of the four fundamental states of matter, and was first described by chemist Irving Langmuir in the 1920s.

Semiconductor

A semiconductor material has an electrical conductivity value falling between that of a conductor – such as copper, gold etc.
