Silicon nitride, silicon dioxide, phosphosilicate glass, polysilicon, single-crystal silicon, molybdenum, and aluminum are etched by parallel-plate RF diode reactors. Resist patterns are used as ...

and silicon dioxide (SiO 2), which were purchased from Sigma Aldrich. SiO 2 (particles size of 44 µm and purity 99%) was mixed properly with MWCNTs (diameter range from 10 to 70 nm) in the ratio of ...

SOI wafers incorporate an ultra-thin layer of silicon separated from the bulk substrate by an insulator (typically silicon dioxide), dramatically reducing parasitic capacitance and improving thermal ...

Silicon is employed in a variety of electronic and optical devices such as integrated circuits, photovoltaics, sensors, and detectors. In this paper, Au-assisted etching of silicon has been used to ...

Microsoft is slashing its Silicon Valley workforce. The tech giant, which is based in Washington but also has Bay Area offices, is cutting 122 positions in Silicon Valley, according to a layoff ...

The etch technology developments presented herein are applicable to fused silica, as well as to other silicon-dioxide-based materials including crystalline quartz.
