  • Abstract
    A study has been undertaken of the ion milling properties of ZnS:Mn, Y2O3, Si3N4, SiO2, SiOxNy, and Al versus the etching time, the acceleration voltage, and the angle of incidence of the ion beam. Different ZnS:Mn etched profiles have been fabricated by modifying the angle of incidence; these are in agreement with the reported simulations
