Etching ASML targets with amtetcher

[Benjamin Chui]

I did a 5.4 minute (recipe 4) etch on the AMT yesterday (July 6) and got an etch depth of 0.16um per Zygo.

Hi amtetcher community,

Have any of you recently used amtetcher to successfully etch ASML targets? The recommended process is 5 min of Program 4. In November 2010 when I last ran this process, it yielded trench depths of 1150 A (measured with zygo) which is close to the desired 1200 A. However, when I ran it again yesterday, the trench depths were only 700 A. Have others also noticed this large change in etch rate?


Thanks,

nh
