  • Abstract
    Focused Ion Beam (FIB), an advanced technology combining microanalysis with microprocessing, plays an important role in modern IC design and manufacturing. Enhanced Etching (EE) is one of the main functions of FIB. In this paper, the fundamental properties such as etching rate and crater topography on different materials or under different ion currents are studied. The results are also compared with the data and micrographs of physical sputtering etching in the same condition. The difference is fully discussed. It is meaningful to practical work and research.
