Funded Activity Summary

Inductively-coupled plasma etching facility. Inductively-coupled plasma etching facility: The aim of this project is to bring together an inductively-coupled plasma etcher with a high resolution tool for optical lithography to create a facility capable of producing nano-structures in silicon surfaces. Such structures are the basis of high performance photonic, nano-electronic, and MicroElectroMechanical (MEM) devices. The lithography tool is a step-and-repeat system capable of exceptionally high rates of throughput so this etcher will be a crucial enabling tool for efficient fabrication of nano-devices for research into quantum computing, high bandwidth, quantum-secure optical communications, renewable energy, and for applications in medicine. The etcher will be available for national access.
