Dear Bryan,
Here is a recipe which we used to etch few nano meters of 200 nm SOI in our
OXFORD Plasmalab System 100 tool.

BCl3 -15
Cl2 - 10
Chamber Pressure: 9 mT
He-10 T
Process Temp-10 C
ICP- 600-700 W
RF-70-80 W
ETCH RATE - ~60-75 nm/min

You may need to play with pressure and power to lower down the etch rate
further.

Thanks & best regards,
vamsi
