110 Si etching with 20%KOH

I am trying to fabricate a flow channel with vertical side walls using a
<110> Si wafer.  When I etch all the way through the wafer (which is
desired) the side walls are slanted.  The wafers are coated with SiO2 and
Si3N4 as protective barriers during etching.  I expected to lose several
microns vertically during etching but the slanted walls were unexpected.

Thank you,
