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
| Resist | Spin Cond. | Soft Bake | Thickness | Laser (nm) | Exposure Dose (mJ/cm2) | DeFocus | Post-Exposure Bake | Developer | Developer Time | Comments |

low dose for clear-field, high does for dark-field |
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.
| Resist | Spin Cond. | Soft Bake | Thickness | Laser (nm) | Exposure Dose (mJ/cm2) | DeFocus | PEB | Flood | Developer | Developer Time | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
