Popis: This paper reports on sacrificial oxide etching with very high selectivity to aluminum metallization using mixtures of 73% HF and IPA. Etch rate ratios up to 680 have been achieved even for (slow etching) thermal oxide. Thermal oxide etch rates up to 1.8 /spl mu/m/min. are reported. Thick polysilicon accelerometers with aluminum metallization and thermal sacrificial oxide have been made as well as full aluminum microstructures using plasma oxide as sacrificial layer.
