Diode Circuit-based Glass Plasma-Chemical Etching Capabilities
The paper discusses technological capabilities to improve a plasma-chemical etching (PCE) rate of the silicate glasses through a chromium mask in the equipment with a planar inductor located outside, which forms a high-frequency diode system. Suggests a case when the inductor in the form of a planar spiral antenna is above the work-piece.The PCE ...
