Abstract
We propose a new explanation for the difference between the etching properties of potassium-hydroxide (KOH) and tetramethyl-ammonium-hydroxide (TMAH) by focusing on the volume fraction occupied by the corresponding cations, K+for KOH and TMA+(with molecular structure N(CH3 )4 +) for TMAH. We have found experimentally that the differences in the surface morphology of Si
