Device and Method for Stopping an Etching Process
A method for etching a layer assembly, the layer assembly including an intermediate layer sandwiched between an etch layer and a stop layer, the method including a step of etching the etch layer using a first etchant and a step of etching the intermediate layer using a second etchant. The first etch...

Summary: | A method for etching a layer assembly, the layer assembly including an intermediate layer sandwiched between an etch layer and a stop layer, the method including a step of etching the etch layer using a first etchant and a step of etching the intermediate layer using a second etchant. The first etchant includes a first etch selectivity of at least 5:1 with respect to the etch layer and the intermediate layer. The second etchant includes a second etch selectivity of at least 5:1 with respect to the intermediate layer and the stop layer. The first etchant being is different from the second etchant. |
