#* Positive tone resist: Resist exposed to UV light will be dissolved in the developer. The mask is an exact copy of the pattern which is to remain on the wafer. | #* Positive tone resist: Resist exposed to UV light will be dissolved in the developer.

# '''Thickness of resist''': In general, it is recommended to work with an aspect ratio of ~1, i.e. where the widths of the pattern is in the same order of magnitude than the thickness of the resist. Furthermore, when you decide for the resist thickness, consider which transfer you need: | # '''Thickness of resist''': In general, it is recommended to work with an aspect ratio of ~1, i.e. where the widths of the pattern is in the same order of magnitude than the thickness of the resist.
