Abstract:
According to various embodiments, a method for processing an electronic device may include: forming a patterned hard mask layer over a power metallization layer, the patterned hard mask layer exposing at least one surface region of the power metallization layer; and patterning the power metallization layer by wet etching of the exposed at least one surface region of the power metallization layer.

Claim (Index 9):
A method for patterning a power metallization layer, the method comprising:\n forming a hard mask layer over the power metallization layer; forming a patterned soft mask layer over the hard mask layer and patterning the hard mask layer by wet etching to expose a major outer surface of the power metallization layer; and patterning the power metallization layer by wet etching of the exposed major outer surface of the power metallization layer using an etch mask comprising the patterned hard mask layer and the patterned soft mask layer.
