I suggest you to look at the following papers:


Thierry Corman, Peter Enoksson and G=F6ran Stemme, "Deep wet
etching of borosilicate glass using an anodically bonded silicon
substrate as mask", Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering 8
(1998) 84-87.


Shuichi Shoji, Hiroto Kikuchi and Hirotaka Torigoe, "Low-temperature
anodic bonding using lithium aluminosilicate-B-quartz glass ceramics",
Sensors and Actuators A 64 (1998) 95-100.


As described in these papers and as you experienced, it is difficult to
etch deep in pyrex glass. A practical solution is to use SD-2 glass
instead of pyrex, which etches faster than pyrex with less
underetching: with a conventional Chromium+gold+resist mask, it is
possible to etch through the SD-2 glass.

Thierry

What is the difference between biocarrirs and biofilm?
