Systems and methods for etching of metals

Abstract

A method of fabricating a multilayer superconducting printed circuit board comprises first, forming a bimetal foil to overlie a substrate, the bimetal foil comprising a first layer of a first metal, a layer of a second metal, and a second layer of the first metal, and then etching the second layer of the first metal. Forming a bimetal foil to overlie a substrate may include forming a bimetal foil comprising a first layer of a normal metal, a layer of a superconducting metal, and a second layer of the normal metal. Etching the second layer of the first metal may include preparing a patterned image in the second layer of the first metal for etching, processing the patterned image through a cleaner, rinsing the patterned image, and then, immersing the patterned image in a microetch.
