Abstract

Square wave gratings with periodicities as small as 1.4 μm have been etched into fused quartz by reactive sputter etching in CF4 and CHF3. Grooves with a perfectly rectangular cross section have been etched with a depth of up to 3 μm. The etching is probably due to highly reactive species produced directly on the substrate surface by an ion-induced dissociation process.
