The nanoETCH implements Moorfield’s unique soft-etching technology and provides the fine etching control crucial for graphene and 2D materials research in a convenient, benchtop package. As a result, and in contrast to conventional etching solutions, the tool enables high-performance for key applications in graphene and 2D materials. As standard, the system is suitable for accepting substrates up to 3″ diameter. A turbomolecular pumping system enables contamination-free operation. Substrates rest on a purpose-designed stage, and power is supplied from an RF unit engineered to allow for fine control at low powers. Together with carefully modelled in-chamber RF acoustics, this provides the tool with its unique capabilities.
