[Frankie] and [Bryan] have figured out a way to use the laser to chemically activate an etching process. See experiment part 2 as well. First, to be clear, they are using a quality 40W Epilog Zing ...
What exactly is going on in there to remove the copper? And how does the etching method affect the final product? Let’s take a look at a few of the more popular etching methods to understand the ...
Anisotropic wet etching is a common method for fabricating nanowires from various materials, such as silicon, germanium, or III-V semiconductors. By using etchants with high selectivity for specific ...
Etching is one of the major steps in the chemical processing of the subtractive PCB process. By this process, the final copper pattern is achieved by selective removal of all the unwanted copper to ...
What is Atomic Layer Etching? Atomic layer etching (ALE) is a highly controlled and selective etching technique that removes material layer by layer at the atomic scale. It is a cyclic process that ...
repeatedly integrates isotropic silicon etching and passivation steps. With the help of a high-density plasma source and quick gas-switching capability, this method allows users to achieve smooth ...
Certain specialized etchers and etching machines perform photochemical or electrochemical etching or electropolishing of components. In electrochemical or electropolishing techniques, a current is ...
