Get the standard chrome etch from Transene. It will do tens of Angstroms per second, depending on temperature.

What is a good chrome echant that will not attack the photo resist, nor SiO2, and what kind of etch rate is expected. tried potassium permaginate/potassium hudroxide solution, and find it is very slow at chrome etch, and fast at dissolving the resist. thanks dave menche
