    In this interesting paper, published in Advanced Functional Materials and co-authored by imec researchers Antoine Pacco and Harold Philipsen, we present a novel method for precise wet etching of molybdenum (Mo) nanowires. This technique, involving wet oxidation with H2O2 in IPA at -20°C, allows for uniform and controlled etching, overcoming challenges of non-uniform surfaces and increased roughness. Such approach, allowing recess of the metal with nanoscale control, is essential for fabricating complex nanostructures needed in next-generation electronic devices. This advancement highlights our expertise in developing cutting-edge processes for future technologies. Full paper: https://lnkd.in/ezBn4Bte
