Unstable Etching Of Si(110) With Potassium Hydroxide

Unstable Etching Of Si(110) With Potassium Hydroxide
Unstable Etching Of Si(110) With Potassium Hydroxide
We present the experimental data for the morphological evolution of Si(110) etched with Potassium Hydroxide. The observed results are interpreted using a continuum equation. The results reveal the presence of unstable etching, which leads to the formation of a columnar structure on the surface. The early stage of the formation of this columnar structure can be explained by a linear theory. This instability is caused by anisotropic surface tension.

Abstract

We present the experimental data for the morphological evolution of Si(110) etched with Potassium Hydroxide. The observed results are interpreted using a continuum equation. The results reveal the presence of unstable etching, which leads to the formation of a columnar structure on the surface. The early stage of the formation of this columnar structure can be explained by a linear theory. This instability is caused by anisotropic surface tension.
