Florian, I believe that Piranha is useful because it is a very powerful oxidant. Ti dioxide is already oxidized, so I would guess that absolutely nothing will happen to the TiO2. I never tried it. But that would be my guess. Gary ---- General MEMS discussionwrote: > > Hi > > I am looking for a process to remove Polyimide residues but not TiO2.
