Dear all, We have been trying to understand the chemistry during the HF wet-etch on borosilicate glass. It turns out the different combination of acid (HCL, H3PO4) with HF results different etch rate. We believe the impurity inside the glass caused this change of etch rate. But not sure the exact chemical reaction happened in this process. Any one have any suggestions or refer me to some reference papers? Appreciate the help. Michael
