Dear MEMS community,
one of my customers is looking at patterning a resistor film
on top of an Aluminum based conductor (AlSi1Cu0.5)
Both of these are going to be UHV sputtered films.
Semi-final choices for the resistor material (TCR is not
really an issue) are TiN (preferred for process
flexibility), Ta2N, TiW(N) or TaAl.
Can anybody suggest a wet etch chemistry that would
selectively etch the resistor vs. the Al based
conductor ? Mainly for TiN and/or Ta2N on Al ?
I'm a bit out of my depth here, but if you have any
suggestions we'll be able to pick it up form there.
thx.
