* '''Spin Coater''': Do you wish to use a manual spin coater or a robot spin coater? A manual spin coater is recommended for batches < 5 wafers. See a list of spin coaters [[Specific_Process_Knowledge/Lithography/Coaters|here]]. | * '''Spin Coater''': Do you wish to use a manual spin coater or a robot spin coater?

** 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.

** Negative tone resist: Resist exposed to UV light will become polymerized and difficult to dissolve. The mask is an inverse copy of the pattern which is to remain on the wafer. | ** Negative tone resist: Resist exposed to UV light will become polymerized and difficult to dissolve.

* '''Thickness of resist''': In general, it is recommended to work at or below an aspect ratio of ~1, i.e. where the width of the pattern is not smaller 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 at or below an aspect ratio of ~1, i.e. where the width of the pattern is not smaller than the thickness of the resist.
