The chemical treatment with hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) before the spin coating can be used to promote the adhesion for photoresist. Vapor priming with HMDS leaves a mono-layer of TMS (trimethylsilyl) on the Si or SiO<sub>2</sub> surface. The process dehydrates the substrate surface, and lowers the surface tension. | The chemical treatment with hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) before the spin coating can be used to promote the adhesion for photoresist.
