primer is recommended
to promote adhesion with substrates that require such
treatment. Vacuum vapor priming at 120C for 30 sec-
onds with concentrated HMDS is recommended.

Figure 2 shows the relation between spin speed and
resist thickness for silicon substrates. Nominal film
thickness may vary slightly due to process, equipment
and ambient conditions.

SOFTBAKE
The recommended softbake processes for reflective and
non-reflective substrates are listed in Table 2.
FILM THICKNESS MEASUREMENT
Cauchy coefficients are listed in Table 3. Figure 3 shows
the refractive index of UV210 as a function of wave-
length. Resist thicknesses of 3,900-6,200 were used to
characterize UV210. Figure 4 displays the E

interference
curve for UV210 on silicon.

POST-EXPOSURE BAKE
The recommended PEB conditions for UV210 on
reflective and non-reflective substrates are listed in Table
5. Figure 7 shows the PEB sensitivity of UV210.

DEVELOP
UV210 is optimized for 0.26N developers. A 45 second
single puddle with no pre-wet is recommended for most
applications including lines/spaces, isolated lines and
contact holes.

PHOTORESIST REMOVAL
UV210 can be removed with MICROPOSIT REMOVER
1165. A two-bath process is recommended with each
bath at a temperature of 80C. The first removes the
bulk of the photoresist and the second removes residual
traces of photoresist. Consult specific remover
datasheets for additional process information.
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
UV210 is a combustable liquid and vapor, keep away
from heat, sparks, and open flame. Irritation to eyes,
nose and respiratory track can occur. Use with adequate
ventilation and avoid breathing vapors and mists. Wash
thoroughly after handling and always wear chemical
goggles, gloves and suitable protective clothing.
In case of eye or skin contact, flush affected areas with
plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Contact a physi-
cian at once.
WASTE TREATMENT
UV210 contains ethyl lactate and may be included with
other wastes containing similar organic solvents to be
discarded for destruction or reclaim in accordance with
local, state and federal regulations.
STORAGE
Store UV210 only in upright, sealed, original containers
in a dry area at 3050F (-110C) away from heat and
sunlight. Keep away from alkaline materials, acids, and
oxidizers. Keep container closed when not in use.
