Patterning Techniques for Magnesium Diboride Films for Superconducting Transition Edge Sensor Bolometer Arrays

Abstract

We present a comparison of several patterning techniques for magnesium diboride films with the goal of making membrane-supported superconducting transition edge sensor bolometer arrays suited for far infrared exploration of outer planets and icy moons. We compare etch properties such as etch rate, selectivity to resist, and edge roughness for wet etching, reactive ion etching, and ion-milling processes.
