Hotplates

Fumehood hotplate

Right: Hotplate 90 °C situated in C-1

Variable temperature hotplate mostly used for baking of single wafers as a soft baking step after a spin coating of photoresist.

Hotplate: 90-110C

Location of Hotplate: 90-110C in C-1

Hotplate: 90-110C is used for baking of 2" - 6" wafers.

The user manual, and contact information can be found in LabManager: Hotplate: 90-110C


SU8 hotplates

Hotplate 1 (SU8) and Hotplate 2 (SU8) situated in C-1

We have two dedicated SU-8 hotplates in C-1.

Users can control the ramp-time, the baking temperature, and the baking time.

The user manual, and contact information can be found in LabManager: Hotplate 1 (SU8) Hotplate 2 (SU8)

Ovens

Oven 90C

Oven 90 °C: positioned in C-1

The oven is mostly used for baking of several wafers at a time at 90 °C as a soft baking step after a spin coating of photoresist. For 1.5µm resist the baking time is 30 min. For most of the other resist thicknesses it is also 30 min.
