If the "lift-off" process is used for the metal electrode patterning, choose a photoresist
and photomask polarity from the list below. Justify your choice. (4 points)
Photoresist inventory: (1) Shipley 1827, (2) SU-8 2005, (3) Futurrex NR9-8000, (4) Dry film PR
Photomask polarity: (1) Clear field (Bright field), (2) Dark field

i) photo resist is a photosensitive material being used in industries related to micro electronics. The photo resist are absorbed on the surface of the substrate. The photo resist polarity preferred here would be dry film PR due to to their application in micro electro mechanical system also known as MEMS. It was designed around 30years ago and would be the best photo resist if the lift off process is being used for the electrode plattering. Adhesion is not an issue for dry film and here adhesive property would work as photo resists sticks on the substrate surface using their adhesive property.

ii) The photomasks are chrome coated and lithographic glass templates. These are designed to optically transfer patterns. So photomask polarity used here should be dark field as the electron plattering would be opaque in nature so we need a clear background and it is being obtained by the dark field photomask. The procedure of using of photomask is that it should be used by the opposite nature of background pattern required by us.

A new process has been developed for applying photoresist to 125-mm silicon wafers used in manufacturing integrated circuits. Ten wafers were tested, and the following photoresist thickness measurements (in angstroms x1000) were observed: 13.3987, 13.3957, 13.3902, 13.4015, 13.4001, 13.3918, 13.3965, 13.3925, 13.3946, and 13.4002.

Their standard half-cell potentials are E0S=+0.223V and E0R=+0.268V, respectively. They are combined to form a full cell for concentration sensing, i.e., as a concentration cell. 1) What type of electrode will it be (potenometry or amperometry)? 2) What is the anticipated output value from the sensor if the sampled solution has 1M concentration? (T=250C). 3) If the output value...

Information for Problems 1 - 5: Photoresist is a light sensitive material used in industrial processes like photolithography and photoengraving to form a patterned coating on a surface. There are two types of photoresists: positive and negative. A positive photoresist is one in which the portion of the photoresist that is exposed to light becomes soluble to the photoresist developer. A negative photoresist is one in which the portion of the photoresist that is exposed to light becomes insoluble to...
