Chromium or niobium are two options. --Kirt Williams ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeehwan Kim"To: Sent: Wednesday, September 06, 2006 11:39 AM Subject: [mems-talk] HF resistance materials that have conductivity > Dear all, > > I am fabricating micro-porous Si through anodization from the back side of > wafer using HF-ethanol solution.
