Request to etch polymer

[Shroff, Yashesh A]

Hi Jim,

You're right, the matrix does have heated chuck. Hoewver, I'd prefer to
run it with the pins up. Attached is an O2 plasma ash data of WaferBOND.
Unfortunately, I don't have the temp dependence data but I hope this
suffices to answer your last question. 

Thanks,
/yashesh

Yashesh,

Do you have any info on the vapor pressure of Waferboond at a T of 180C.

In the Matrix the wafer is usually heated to about 180C if my memory is 
correct. You lower the temperature by running with the pins up but the 
etch is temperature dependent (Ea ~ 1 eV). If there are any metals in
the 
glue/wax, they will be oxidized and will be hard to get off. Do you have

any data on anyone who has use a asher to strip Waferbond?

	Thanks, Jim
