Hotplates

90 C 4" hotplate

Hotplate 90 degrees: positioned in cleanroom 3

Hotplate is mostly used for baking of single wafer at 90 deg. as a soft baking step after a spinning of photo resist.

120 C 4" hotplate

Hotplate 120 degrees: positioned in cleanroom 3

120 deg. hotplate is used for 2 different things, hard bake of resist and image reversal baking between two exposure. It is recommended to hard bake for 2 min. for image reversal it is recommended at least 100 sec. some bake at 120 sec.


SU8 hotplates

We have four dedicated SU-8 hotplates in CR3. Users can control the ramp-time, time and temperature.

Ovens

90 C oven

Oven 90 degrees: positioned in cleanroom 3

The oven is mostly used for baking of several wafers at a time at 90 deg. as a soft baking step after a spinning of photo resist. For 1.5µm resist the baking time is 30 min. for most of the other resist thicknesses it is also 30 min.

120 C oven

Oven 120 degrees: positioned in cleanroom 3

120 deg. oven is used to hard bake of resist of several wafers at time. It is recommended to hard bake for 30 min.

250 C oven for pretreatment

Oven 250 degrees for pretreatment: positioned in cleanroom 3

The oven is typically used for pretreatment of silicon and glass substrates to promote the resist adhesion. We recommend to place the wafers in metal carrier in the oven at least for 4 hours, better during the night, and spin the resist on them asap.

250 C oven for burning resist

Oven 250 degrees for burning resist: positioned in cleanroom 3

This oven is used for "burning" the resist, therefore not considered clean.
