Thanks a lot, Andy.
I contacted Primaxx before and also asked them to try to find an used
equipment for me. Their new system is quite expensive.

A further company to try would be Primaxx out of Allentown.

>There are several options for HF vapor etching:
1. Pour some 49% HF into a non-glass beaker.
Hold the wafer over the beaker for 15 s.
Remove for 15 s (this prevents condensation).
Repeat until done, which may be an hour.
Variations have done using heating of the wafer.
2. Buy a commercial system. The only one I know is
the Excalibur from FSI International of Chaska, Minnesota.
These are relatively new, so don't count on finding a used one
(unless one of the dead optical-switch start-ups has one).

Hi,
I am wondering if any body know where there is such an equipment
for sale. What we need to do is to do SiO2 sacrificial etch by HF vapor.
We've a limited budget so we prefer an used equipment with low price.
Thank you very much and appreciate your reply!
