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.  
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.  


Please be aware that I have experienced a somewhat large thickness deviation (5-8 %) depending on the amount of resist applied to the wafer before spin coating.
Around 2 ml of resist per wafer has been used when fabricating these curves. If you use less than 2 ml, the thickness of the final resist might be smaller than reported here.

100 nm lines in ~145 nm thick CSAR has been developed with AR-600-546 (standard CSAR developer) with and without agitation at room temperature and at 5 degrees Celsius. Furthermore, same pattern ahs been developed with N50 (standard developer for ZEP520A).
100 nm lines in both ~70 nm and ~188 nm thick CSAR has been developed with AR-600-546 (standard CSAR developer) at room temperature to provide the following contrast curves.

So far (September 2014) three wafers with CSAR have been e-beam exposed with dosetests and inspected in SEM. Thickness of resist, e-beam dose and development time has been changed somewhat from wafer to wafer:

=== SEM inspection ===
==Dose to size==
Small features need a comparatively higher dose then big features and hence it can be useful to map out the dose and size dependency. Below is a set of cross sectional images of 100, 50 and 20 nm lines written 500, 250 and 180 nm resist at doses from 200 to 600 µC/cm<sup>2</sup>.

=== Dark Erosion ===
! 253 [muC/cm2]
 
| [[File:53nmCSAR15nmOverviewBasedose+10%.png|250px]]
Dark erosion has been measured on a un-exposed 4" wafer spin coated with CSAR 6200.18 to a thickness of approximately 549 nm. The resist thickness has been measured by VASE Ellipsometer before development, and after 3 minutes, 13 minutes, and 30 minutes of development in AR 600 546.
| [[File:53nmCSAR15nmLinesBasedose+10%.png|250px]]
 
|[[File:15nmShot10.png|250px]]
The graphs shows the measured thicknesses; the errorbars represents the standard deviations from the ellipsometric measurements. The average etch rate of CSAR is ~0.1 nm/min.

== Development ==
 
Many resists can be developed in different developers, CSAR can be developed in: AR 600-546, AR 600-548, ZED N-50 and mix of MIBK and IPA among others.


CSAR and ZEP520A are in principle the same chemical, however the pretreatment (filtration and temperature control) can differ.


{| class="wikitable collapsible collapsed" style="border: 5px solid black;"  style="width: 90%;" align="center"
Some users have reported residues and residual layers when using ZED N-50 on CSAR and vice verca, hence we recommend to use AR 600-546 or AR 600-548 (3 times stronger) to develop CSAR and not ZED N-50.

When this is said some users still observe residues when using AR 600-546, the producer "'''All resist GMBH'''" have recommended to use 3-5s, dip in pure MIBK to remove residues.

AR 600 546 will dissolve different plastic materials, hence never use it on PS compounds.
