Hi all,
I have a rather specific question regarding the content of a possible job for me in science (postdoc in academia). The job would imply do deal times to times with hydrofluoric acid (HF) in cleanroom, for wet etching of Si in particular.
My background is more in physics - I have no previous background in such techniques. Of course, I browsed the web and I know that this compound is very nasty and I am aware of the safety procedures.
Those who have experience could tell me more in the sense, is it reasonable for me to adapt to such technique as my first experience in chemical etching? Did you feel a specific stress linked to this particular step in the processes? Is is really different from other chemicals regarding the feeling/danger of the operator?
Thanks a lot, it would clarify the way I see this job.
