Class Information
Number: 438/735
Name: Semiconductor device manufacturing: process > Chemical etching > Vapor phase etching (i.e., dry etching) > Differential etching of semiconductor substrate
Description: Processes directed to (a) contact only selected surface areas of the substrate with the etchant to remove a constituent part of the substrate at the selected surface areas only or (b) cause the substrate to be treated at different rates in different areas to produce a nonuniform surface.
