Au etch 200

Gold Etchant

 

General Information

Au etch 200 is a non-hazardous, cyanide-free, slightly alkaline etchant for Au. The etchant is used for the wet-chemical patterning of Au layers with selectivity to metals like Pt, Ni, Cr, Ti, Al. Common areas of use for semiconductor fabrication or micro system technology.

Product Properties
  • Low undercut (in the range of the layer thickness), minimum feature size < 1 µm
  • Selectivity to many materials, e.g. common metals used in electroplating industry
  • Available in different purity grades
  • Compatible to resist masking
  • Not hazardous substance and easy to handle
Selectivity

Au etch 200 is compatible/etches selective to following materials:

  • Resists: common Novolak as masking resist (e.g. AZ® Photoresist)
  • Metals: no attack on Pt, Ni, Cr, Ti, Al, Ta
  • Metals: attacked Au, Cu
  • Semiconductor materials: Si, SiO2, Si3N4

Data on selectivity and compatibility are manufacturer information and do not claim to be complete. Please contact us for further details.

Etching Rate

Under normal condition, the etching rate is around 40 nm/min (at 50°C). The mixed etching solution is stable over time and can be used multiple times depending on the requirements of application. It is recommended to dispose the solution at the latest, when the etching rate has changed by 20%.

AX 100 - 5.00 l
nbtax1005
Bottle size: 5.00 l
AX 100 Activator   General Information AX 100 is an acidic solution for activating and pretreating seed layers and metallic surfaces for electroplating, on which a direct metallization may cause problems regarding the adhesive strength. This applies e.g. for the electroplating of Au on Ni surfaces or direct electroplating on Ti or TiW layers. AX 100 activates metallic surfaces before electroplating and allows a better adhesive strength of electroplated layers on metallic surfaces, which tend to oxidation. Common fields of application are semiconductor fabrication and microsystem technology. Product Properties Low or none etch attack on metallic surfaces Compatible to many materials, e.g. common metals used in electroplating industry Compatible to resist masking Not poisonous substance and easy to handle Moderate operation temperature of about 40°C Selectivity AX 100 is compatible/etches selective to following materials: Resists: common Novolak as masking resist (e.g. AZ® Photoresist) Metals: no attack on Ni, Ti, TiW, Ta, Cu Semiconductor materials: Si, SiO2, Si3N4 Data on selectivity and compatibility are manufacturer information and do not claim to be complete.
