Preparation of different photoresist formulations. All formulations are listed as weight percentages. After mixing all components, mix on a bottle roller until all resin is dissolved. Note that photoresist resins are inhalation hazards and a respirator should always be worn when handling, especially outside a fume hood. Suggested processing parameters for various feature heights are often provided by the photoresist manufacturer.
