ABSTRACT:
A process is described for removing the rounded regions in a silicon dioxide layer particularly in a layer covering conductive members. The silicon dioxide layer is subjected to ion milling. The angle of incidence of the ions striking the rounded regions is greater than the angle of incidence in other regions of the layer. This causes more of the rounded regions to be removed, thereby providing a smoother, faceted surface. The process eliminates the need to taper the edges of the conductive members as done in the prior art.
