In general, our materials are compatible with standard semiconductor solvent systems used for pre-wet, edge bead removal (EBR), backside clean, or bowl rinse. In some cases, such as multi-layer systems or BARCs, there is a caution against using those materials in the same spin bowl as the photoresist.

Without consultation it is difficult to make a recommendation as your performance targets as well as tool sets need to be considered. However, rest assured that the depth and breadth of Shin-Etsu’s portfolio is likely to offer a solution. Shin-Etsu offers many photoresists and ancillary products for broadband, i-line, DUV, and ArF applications. Wavelength is only one consideration. Other questions include feature size, exposure tool conditions, substrate, and thickness requirements. Click on this link to schedule a free consultation today.
