AZ 4562 is a positive UV photoresist for thick coatings (5µm and above).
Priming
Spin coating
The thickest coating using a normal spin cycle is probably 10-15µm. However, reducing the spin-off time to a few seconds at 2000rpm has successfully been used to increase the coating thickness beyond 20µm on a Gamma coater. The substrate is rested for 1min before softbake in order to reduce the edge bead height.
Exposure
Development
The recommended development speed for AZ 4562 is 2µm/min. A 6.2µm resist film thus requires 3min development, usually as three 60s puddles of TMAH (AZ 726 MIF). 10µm AZ 4562 has successfully been developed using 4x60s development
