The chemical treatment with hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) before the spin coating can be used to promote the adhesion for photoresist. HMDS treatment leaves a mono-layer of TMS (trimethylsilyl) on the Si or SiO<sub>2</sub> surface.
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 molecular formula for hexamethyldisilazane, or bis(trimethylsilyl)amine, is C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>19</sub>NSi<sub>2</sub>. Here is a schematic overview of HMDS treatment of silicon-oxide surface.
