Abstract
Highly controllable ICP etching of GaAs based materials with SiCl4/Ar plasma is investigated. A slow etching rate of 13 nm/min was achieved with RF1 = 10 W, RF2 = 20 W and a high ratio of Ar to SiCl4 flow. First order gratings with 25 nm depth and 140 nm period were fabricated with the optimal parameters. AFM analysis indicated that the RMS roughness over a 10 × 10 μm2 area was 0.3 nm, which is smooth enough to regrow high quality materials for devices. -
