A method for etching quartz is provided herein. In one embodiment, a method of etching quartz includes providing a filmstack in an etching chamber, the filmstack having a quartz layer partially exposed through a patterned layer, providing at least one fluorocarbon process gas to a processing chamber, biasing a quartz layer disposed on a substrate support in the processing chamber with a plurality of power pulses less than 600 Watts and etching the quartz layer through a patterned mask. The method for etching quartz described herein is particularly suitable for fabricating photomasks having etched quartz portions.
