Abstract:
The invention includes a method of promoting atomic layer etching (ALE) of a surface. In certain embodiments, the method comprises contacting a solid substrate comprising a first metal compound with an oxidant, optionally contacting the solid substrate with a second metal compound, and then contacting the modified solid substrate with a fluorinating agent, whereby ALE of the solid substrate is promoted.
