Abstract
Very fine circuit structures in microelectronics are produced by first applying a thin metal oxide layer uniformly over an entire surface of a layer to be etched, then applying a resist layer uniformly over the entire metal oxide layer and structuring such oxide layer by ion-beam etching and, utilizing the structured oxide layer as a mask, performing a dry-etching with an ion beam of the metal layer lying thereunder so as to attain structures having very unfavorable resist height to etching depth ratios.
