Aluminum etch (Phosphoric - Acetic acid based) is great for patterning Ni. You can use Piranha to bulk strip the Ni. >>> "Elizabeth Chalmers"02/27/01 03:07PM >>> Hi, I am an engineering student at Boston University and I'm interested in finding an etchant (wet or reactive ion gas) that will attack a nickel film selectively, but leave the photoresist relatively unetched. Do you have any ideas? Thank you very much for your time, Elizabeth Chalmers __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo!
