Abstract

This paper describes features of a new anisotropic etching simulator and its applications on predicting etching shape of quartz crystal. The simulator is suitable to predict etching profiles of two-dimensional initial shape which has a profile formed by straight lines. In this simulator, a program flow with uneven time step was used to furthest reduced the probability of improper shape prediction. We present here two examples of its application on both Z-plate and AT-plate quartz crystal to show its good performance.
