1. List some of the advantages of plasma cleaning. 2. Photoresist thickness and quality depends on spin-speed, temperature, humidity and photore- sist viscosity. Discuss how these parameters affected you experiment. 3. Present a comparison of negative and positive photoresists. Describe what happens chemically to both positive and negative resists when ex- posed to UV radiation. 4. Why is it easier to obtain a lift-off profile with a negative resist than with a positive resist? 5. Compare UV, X-ray, ion-beam, and electron- beam lithography. Summarize in a comparison table. Which techniques are used mostly in the IC industry today? How are the photons or charged particles created in each case?
