Mask process and outline
| Step | Process description | Machines | Cross-section after process |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 |  Cross section of a photolithography mask |
||
| 02 | Laser exposure |  Heidelberg DWL200, Laser lithography system |
 The laser beams on the surface of the photoresist. By doing so, it imprints the pattern of the design on the PR. |
| 03 | Developing of the mask |  DV10 Mask and Thick positive resist developer |
A chemical treatment is used to remove the PR that was exposed by the laser in the previous step, creating the ‘holes’ on the photoresist |
| 04 | Etching of the chrome |  Coillard Gravure |
The chrome is removed at the sites where the resist layer is missing, using an acid bath. |
| 05 | Removal of Resist | Coillard Photolithographie |
Once the chrome is removed at the precise sites (previous step), the rest of the resist is removed from the whole surface. |
| 06 | Use of mask | The mask can now be used to expose its pattern on the wafer using UV light |
Control Layer Process outline
| Step | Process description | Machines | Cross-section after process |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Substrate: Wafer Clean | Tepla 300 |
Clean the wafer using plasma treatment |
| 02 | Photolith: Resist deposition Photo Resist : Su8 GM1070 – 30μm | Sawatec |
A layer of negative photoresist is added on the wafer by spincoating |
| 03 | Relaxation time + Softbake | Sawatec |
Softbake wafer using Sawatec hotplate, to solidify the photo resist |
| 04 | Photolith:UV exposure | Mask Aligner |
The UV lights are exposed through the Mask on the surface of the wafer. By doing so, it imprints the pattern of the design on the PR. |
| 05 | Post exposure bake | Sawatec |
Bake wafer using Sawatec hotplate |
| 06 | Relaxation delay | Wait 1 hour – overnight | |
| 07 | Photolith: Develop | Wetbench plane solvent |
This removes the unexposed photoresist from the wafer using chemical treatment on a wet bench |
| 08 | Hard bake | DataPlate |
Bake 135°C 2 hours, using an oven |
Flow layer process outline
| Step | Process description | Machines | Cross-section after process |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Substrate: Si test Priming | YES III |
Dehydrate and prime with HMDS, using the oven to create hydrophobic surface on the wafer, to prepare the wafer for coating |
| 02 | Photolith: Resist deposition Photo Resist : AZ9260 – 14μm | EVG 150 |
A layer of positive photoresist is added on the wafer by spincoating |
| 03 | Rehydratation time | Wait minimum 1 hour, maximum 3 days | |
| 04 | Photolith:UV exposure | Mask Aligner |
The UV lights are exposed through the Mask on the surface of the wafer. By doing so, it imprints the pattern of the design on the PR. |
| 05 | Develop immediately | Wait maximum 1 hour before develop | |
| 06 | Photolith: Develop | EVG 150 |
This removes the exposed photoresist from the wafer using chemical treatment with the EVG 150 |
| 07 | Rinse with Deionized water | Coillard Wetbench |
Rinse wafers in Quick Dump Rinse then in Ultra Clean bath, using wetbench |
| 08 | Bake to round edges | DataPlate |
Bake in horizontal position, 160°C 2 hours |
