Abstract
We present a novel approach to pattern aggressive aspect ratio Si/Si1-xGex superlattices on Silicon On Insulator (SOI) wafers. This approach is based on the anisotropic etching of Si/SiGe superlattices with final dimensions down to 30nm, and the isotropic etching of the SiGe selectively to silicon. This isotropic etching was developed in a remote plasma chamber, and in-situ in an Inductive Coupled Plasma (ICP) reactor.
