These tests are currently in progress and this page thus under construction. If you have questions to the process or wish to use this e-beam resist, please contact Tine Greibe at tigre@danchip.dtu.dk.
Test of copolymer AR-P 617.05; a positive e-beam resist from AllResist. This copolymer is meant to be used as a sacrificial layer in a bi- or tri-layer e-beam resist stack (i.e. bottom layer). The copolymer adheres well on many substrates and can be dry-etched isotropically (to create under-cut) and anisotropically by reactive ion etch. Furthermore, it is softbaked at temperatures above 200 degrees and thus themally stable to many post-processing steps.


 
This is not a standard resist at Nanolab.

Test of copolymer AR-P 617.05; a positive e-beam resist from AllResist. This copolymer is meant to be used as a sacrificial layer in a bi- or tri-layer e-beam resist stack (i.e. bottom layer). The copolymer adheres well on many substrates and can be dry-etched isotropically (to create under-cut) and anisotropically by reactive ion etch. Furthermore, it is softbaked at temperatures above 200 degrees and thus themally stable to many post-processing steps.

This is not a standard resist at Nanolab.

Spin Curve

Please remember that a spin curve is only valid for that tool otherwise it acts as a guide for future tests.

The thickness is measured on VASE Ellipsometer using a simple Cauchy model for a transparent polymer on Si. The measurements are performed at one incidence angle (70 degrees) only.

9 points on each 4" wafer has been measured; the standard deviation thus representing the homogeinity of the film on the 4" wafers.
