    • Datasheets are provided for reference on use of the materials.
  3. Contrast Enhancement Materials (CEM)
    • The Photoresist Recipes section contains recipes using these materials.
    • Used for resolution enhancement. Not for use in contact aligners, typically used on I-Line Steppers.
    • Datasheets provided with usage info.
  4. Adhesion Promoters
    • These are used to improve wetting of photoresists to your substrate.

  5. Low-K Spin-on Dielectrics
  6. Developers and Removers
    • Datasheets provided for reference.
    • Remover and Photoresist Strippers are used to dissolve PR during lift-off or after etching.

General Photolithography Techniques

HMDS Process for Improving Adhesion

  • Use these procedures if you are finding poor adhesion PR lifting-off), or for chemicals (like BHF) that attack the PR adhesion interface strongly.

Edge-Bead Removal Techniques

  • These techniques are required for loading full-wafers into etchers that use top-side clamps, to prevent photoresist from sticking to the clamp (and potentially destroying your wafer).
  • For contact lithography, this improves the proximity of the mask plate and sample, improving resolution. For some projection systems, such as the Maskless Aligner, EBR can help with autofocus issues.

Photoresist reflow (MicroChem)

  • To create slanted sidewalls or curved surfaces.
