== Comparing Lithography methodes at Danchip ==
__TOC__


There are a broad varity of lithography methodes at Danchip. The methodes are compared here to make it easier for you to compare and choose the one that suits your needs.
There are four different types of lithography available at DTU Nanolab:

Lithography Tool Package Training

DTU Nanolab offers a Tool Package Training in Lithography; the course includes theory on lithographic processes and equipment. After the TPT has been successfully completed, you can begin training on the lithography equipment at DTU Nanolab.

You are required to pass this course, in order to get access to using the lithography equipment inside the DTU Nanolab fabrication facility (The Cleanroom).

For details, dates, and course material, please check the course description under Courses.


Signing up for the course

The course is in DTU Learn. You sign up for the course by enrolling yourself in the course DTU Nanolab TPT: Lithography - requires login

  • Watch the lecture videos
  • Successfully complete all the quizzes


Learning objectives

Learn about the fundamentals of lithography processing in a cleanroom fabrication lab:

  • Coating
  • Exposure
  • Development
  • Resist, substrates and pre-treatment
  • Post-lithography steps


After completing the TPT

When all TPT quizzes have been completed successfully, you have finished the lithography TPT, and can begin the online training on the lithography equipment you need to use. The online training is available in the course DTU Nanolab: lithography equipment training - requires login

After completing the online equipment training, you become eligible for the hands-on authorization training, which will take place inside the cleanroom.
