Abstract: Some implementations described herein include an etch tool including a combination bottom shadow ring component including a moveable inner ring component and a fixed inner ring component. The moveable inner ring component provides for an adjustability of an effective thickness of the combination bottom shadow ring component during an etching operation. The adjustability (e.g., “tunability”) of the effective thickness of the combination bottom shadow ring component enables flexibility and is conducive to changes in one or more parameters related to different etch recipes for a semiconductor substrate. Additionally, the fixed inner ring component shadows beveled regions of the semiconductor substrate during the etching operation to reduce a likelihood of damage to the beveled regions.
