Maskless Aligner (Heidelberg MLA150)

Photolithography Recipes for the Heidelberg MLA150. Description of litho params- different lasers available, greyscale etc.

Positive Resist (MLA150)

General notes: Hotplates used, filters, laser wavelengths, etc. “Soft Bake” is right after spin, “PEB” is post-exposure bake - right after exposure

Negative Resist (MLA150)

General notes: Hotplates used, filters, laser wavelengths, etc. “Soft Bake” is right after spin, “PEB” is post-exposure bake - right after exposure. “Flood exposure” is only for AZ5214 for image reversal, after PEB.
