The National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure (NNCI) is an NSF-sponsored network of 16 sites involving nearly 30 university shared research facilities across the USA (https://www.nnci.net). The NNCI organizes network-wide events to bring together technical experts in a particular fabrication discipline. A principal objective of this symposium is to bring together etch personnel in an interactive forum where collective knowledge on etch processes and equipment can be shared.This 2-day symposium will include an internal meeting of NNCI technical staff and invited non-NNCI staff on the first day, April 21. Member NNCI sites are invited to give updates on new etch equipment and newly developed etch processes. A portion of the first day will be dedicated to an open discussion of any etch related equipment or process issues you may have. In addition, we have invited etch equipment vendors including Oxford Instruments, Plasmatherm, SPTS, and others to give technical presentations to highlight their latest developments in etch processes such as atomic layer etching (ALE) and those processes critical for electronic, photonic, and quantum-based devices. The vendors will also have exhibit booths available so that attendees can meet and discuss the manufacturers’ most recent etch product and ancillary equipment offerings.Day 2, April 22, will be an open public event with invited and contributed talks by experts from academic and government labs. The topics will discuss etching aspects in a broad range of nanotechnology, including quantum and nanophotonic device fabrication to the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in the fab.
