CF4/Ar and SF6/Ar plasmas has been used to investigate etch rate of Al thin films and silica wafer. Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis has been used to investigate the chemical residues on the surface of silica wafer after RIE process. The transparency of the silica waveguide has also been inspected based on fringe visibility with the aid of the Twyman-Green Interferometer (TGI) for interferometry measurements. The results demonstrate that CF4/Ar plasma etches silica faster than SF6/Ar plasma while keeping the etching rate of Al minimal. Residues are also less visible on the surface of the microchannel when applying CF4/Ar plasma. 2013-07-13T04:03:16Z 2013-07-13T04:03:16Z 2012-09 Article Australian Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, vol. 6(9), 2012, pages 732-737 1991-8178 http://www.ajbasweb.com/ajbas/2012/Sep%202012/732-737.pdf http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/26628 en INSInet Publications
