What Does SPEED Stand For?

SPEED stands for Selective Potentiostatic Etching By Electrolytic Dissolution

SPEED, which stands for Selective Potentiostatic Etching By Electrolytic Dissolution, is a precise electrochemical technique used to selectively remove material from specific areas of a substrate. By applying a controlled potential in an electrolyte, this method facilitates the dissolution of targeted materials while preserving the integrity of adjacent surfaces. SPEED is widely employed in semiconductor fabrication, microfabrication, and materials science for creating intricate patterns and structures at the microscale, offering high resolution and reproducibility.
