This is a standard positive resist from ZEON. The resist is out of stock from the manufacturer and also very expensive; DTU Danchip has thus stopped buying this resist. As of August 2016 we have around 0.5L left. Use CSAR instead.

1 The disposable pipettes are not cleanroom compatible and must therefore be handled with care inside the cleanroom. Each bag contain 10 pipettes; the bags must be opened inside a fumehood and each pipette must be cleaned with a N<sub>2</sub> gun before use.
 
2 The e-beam writer measures the height of the substrate and adjust the focus accordingly. This requires no actual chip marks on the wafer. See e-beam writer manual.
