You need high bias power.  BCl3 helps if you've got it.  Dry etching is
mostly physical with a minor chemical component.  Etch rates will be a few
hundred angstroms/min, best case.  You don't mention if you require
selectivity to a mask or if you have a mask present.  For stopping on the
alumina, some CF4 or other source of fluorine will help.
