What it is

General reference — not yet source-verified

Resist coaters and developers are lithography track tools that apply photoresist to wafers and then develop the exposed pattern after exposure. Resist coaters and developers are used to prepare wafer surfaces for imaging and to convert the latent image in resist into a patterned layer for later process steps.

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Resist coater/developer systems generally move wafers through coating and developing modules under automated handling. Resist coater/developer systems typically dispense liquid resist during coating, control film formation, and then process the wafer with developer chemistry after exposure. Resist coater/developer systems also include rinse and drying functions as part of the resist process sequence.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Resist coater/developer tools sit within the lithography flow around the exposure step. Resist coater/developer tools are used before exposure to coat resist and after exposure to develop the imaged resist pattern. Resist coater/developer tools therefore connect surface preparation and imaging steps to downstream etch, implant, plating, or lift-off sequences that use the resist pattern as a mask.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

Resist coater/developer tools are used wherever a fab or laboratory needs patterned photoresist on wafer surfaces. Resist coater/developer tools support front-end and back-end lithographic patterning, pilot-line process development, and general microfabrication workflows that depend on spin-coated resist and wet development.
