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.


Process Flow

Test of ZEP resist; a positive e-beam resist from ZEON.

Spin Curves


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.
