Xactix XeF2 Si Etcher

Description

Xactix XeF2 Si Etcher is an open load dry vapor phase etch system. The process gas is xenon diflouride (XeF2). The system is for the deep isotropic etching of silicon. Masks allowed in the system are photoresist and silicon dioxide (SiO2).

This tool requires pre-requisite training on other techniques: metrology.
