Wet-chemical etching of Au without etching Al
Lisa Gades

Hello,

We have a process in which 20nm Au were deposited as a sacrificial layer
on Al.  We need to remove the Au in a later step.  We have found that
iodine-based Au etchant undercuts the Al.  We are looking for a process
that will selectively etch the Au without etching the Al.

Thank you,
