Reactive Ion Beam Etching is obtained from a new specific ion gun, the Electrostatic Reflex Ion Source (Maxi-ERIS), which is operated with pure CF4 gas. The reported results concern both silicon dioxide and single-crystal silicon. They show that the operation of the source discharge down to its minimum pressure which implies an extensive fragmentation of the injected neutrals, provides a very convenient process for selective etching of SiO2 over Si, a basic problem in semiconductor technology. From the characteristic performances which are achieved, this process appears as a fair alternative solution to the standard reactive ion etching process with CF4/H2 or CHF3 (in a plasma environment). It is known that these latter ones lead to deep ly...
