Abstract :
Focused laser etching has been investigated for use in limited area processing (LAP) of silicon wafers. The electrical properties of the etched material have been characterized for the first time by fabricating several different test structures, including isolation trenches, Schottky barrier diodes, and MOS trench capacitors. The etched material is suitable for many applications.<>
