Hello,

Just wondering if anyone has experience using TRION's Mini-lock II ICP
etcher for III-V's (GaAs)?

Specifically, I am finding it pretty hard to control the plasma reflected
power to below 10%.

I am using a chlorine based etch recipe (Ar / Cl2 / BCl3).  However, I'm all
ears if someone's got a working recipe for a TRION machine.

Also, could anyone who has had hardware issues with these etchers also chime
in as maybe that is the cause of my troubles.

Thank you,
