Abstract: | Electrodeless photo-assisted electrochemical etching was successfully demonstrated using a H-3 PO4-based solution containing S2O82- ions. The pH value of the solution changed under UVC illumination, clearly showing that SO4- radicals were produced from S2O82- ions by absorbing UVC light. The production rate of SO4- radicals maintained a constant value over the wide pH range of the solution, leading to etching rates and surface roughness comparable to those obtained in KOH-based solutions. The positive-type photoresist was applicable as the etching mask for the H3PO4-based solution. This finding will contribute to the development of a simple wet etching process suitable for the manufacturing of GaN-based devices. |
