On what basis do you make these suggestions?

Do you have first hand experience?

Thanks,

James

O2 during etching cycles and C4F8 during deposition cycles.. At present I am
getting slightly negative sidewall, but I want a positive sidewall. Can you
please provide any hint, probably changing gas ratio (incerase or decrease any
of the gas content) or power to get a positive sidewall in etching. Any
suggestions will be greatly helpful for me. Thanking you in advance.
