This deposit is done the same<br />
way as step 4. All con<strong>for</strong>mal<br />
depositions are per<strong>for</strong>med this<br />
way until an etch is per<strong>for</strong>med.<br />
Once an etch is per<strong>for</strong>med,<br />
device_is_planar is set to FALSE<br />
<strong>for</strong> the rest of the steps (unless a<br />
MechanicalPolish or<br />
DepositType=FILL is<br />
per<strong>for</strong>med).<br />
This etch step causes the variable<br />
device_is_planar to be set to<br />
FALSE. Since this etch involves<br />
an undercut and results in angled<br />
sidewalls, vfabAngledEtch is<br />
used. Only the Poly0 layer is<br />
effected by the etch since it<br />
appears within the EtchRemoves.<br />
Since device_is_planar is<br />
FALSE, we have to use the more<br />
general vfabOffsetDeposit<br />
algorithm which in essence<br />
creates the deposited layer by<br />
offsetting the original geometry<br />
by thickness along the surface<br />
normals.<br />
This etch uses vfabAngledEtch.<br />
Note that EtchMask=INSIDE<br />
tells the geometry engine to<br />
remove the material “underneath”<br />
the mask layout. In actual<br />
fabrication this corresponds to a<br />
negative resist.
