摘要：

The influence of the mask material used for formation of GaN mesa-structures using plasma-chemical etching in a BCl3 : Ar : N-2 atmosphere is studied. It is shown that a bilayer SiO2/Cr mask in which the thickness of the chromium layer is six to seven times smaller than a desired etch depth provides effective protection of the surface and allows the formation of structures with a flat surface for an etch depth of up to 2.5 mu m. When the mask is produced by conventional lithography, the slope of the side walls is no more than 10A degrees and decreases when liftoff lithography is applied.
