Photo-Atomic Layer Etching of GaAs/AlGaAs Nanoheterostructures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide Photo-atomic layer etching (photo-ALE) of GaAs and AlGaAs semiconductors was investigated in deionized H 2 O and aqueous solution of NH 4 OH under weak excitation conditions ( P ≈ 20 mW/cm 2 ). The process is based on digital photocorrosion in a processed solution and a negligible corrosion during the light-off phase employed for dissolution of the photocorrosion products. An inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS) analysis revealed that photo-ALE of GaAs in an aqueous solution of NH 4 OH proceeds linearly with the number of reaction cycles, typically at ∼0.1 nm/cycle, and with the light-off phase as short as 22 s sufficient to entirely dissolve the photocorrosion products generated during a 3 s irradiation. In agreement with the ICP-MS data, the constant photo-ALE rates in NH 4 OH were also demonstrated in situ with the photoluminescence measurements. Our results suggest that the congruent decomposition of III–V materials and the etching of deep structures with atomic layer resolution could be facilitated by switching in situ between different etching environments.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
