The Method of Low-Temperature ICP Etching of InP/InGaAsP Heterostructures in Cl<sub>2</sub>-Based Plasma for Integrated Optics Applications

Chlorine processes are widely used for the formation of waveguide structures in InP-based optoelectronics. Traditionally, ICP etching of InP in a Cl<sub>2</sub>-based plasma requires substrate temperatures in the range of 150–200 °C. This condition is mandatory, since during the etching...
