Etching rates of borosilicate, borophosphosilicate, phosphosilicate, and arsenosilicate glass films in various buffered hydrogen fluoride solution (BHF) have been studied. Etching rates were found to depend on the glass composition and dopant concentration as wel l as the concentration f ammonium fluoride in the BHF. This phenomenon is clearly differ-ent from the etching rate of thermal SiO2 oxide which is hardly affected by the concentration f ammonium fluoride in ex-cess of equimolar to the HF concentration. The etching rates of the doped films ay sometimes be higher than that of a nondoped SiO2 film but the rate is reduced when certain other dopants are present. This phenomenon is attributable to valence differences between silicon and t...
