Features Of BL301 Photoresist

  1. High-resolution patterning capability with sub-1.5 µm line/space resolution under standard i-line (365 nm) exposure.

  2. Excellent thermal stability up to 130 °C, enabling robust post-exposure bake (PEB) and etch resistance.

  3. Low outgassing profile during vacuum processing, minimizing contamination in lithography tools and mask aligners.

  4. Optimized adhesion to silicon, SiO₂, and metal substrates (e.g., Al, TiW) without mandatory HMDS priming.

  5. Consistent performance across wafer batches, supported by strict lot-to-lot viscosity and solids content control.

Typical Applications Of BL301 Photoresist

  1. MEMS device fabrication requiring high-aspect-ratio resist profiles and chemical resistance.

  2. Power semiconductor patterning for trench gate IGBTs and MOSFETs.

  3. Microfluidic chip development using glass or fused silica substrates.

  4. RF and microwave component manufacturing on GaAs and SiC wafers.

  5. Research-scale photolithography in university cleanrooms and pilot-line facilities.

BL301 Photoresist – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for BL301 Photoresist?

A: BL301 Photoresist is a proprietary multi-component formulation; individual CAS numbers are assigned to key constituents only (e.g., novolac resin: 9003-35-4; DNQ: 83-09-4). Full formulation CAS is not assigned per industry practice for blended photoresists.


Q2: What is the recommended coating thickness and spin speed range for 1.2 µm target film?

A: For 1.2 µm dry film thickness on silicon wafers, use 3500–4200 rpm for 30 seconds; final thickness is validated via ellipsometry and correlates within ±5% across 100 mm–200 mm wafers.


Q3: How does BL301 compare to BL200 in terms of resolution and process latitude?

A: BL301 offers superior resolution (<1.5 µm vs. >2.0 µm for BL200) and wider focus latitude (±0.8 µm vs. ±0.4 µm), achieved via refined resin molecular weight distribution and optimized DNQ loading—ideal for demanding MEMS and power device applications.


Q4: Is BL301 suitable for food-contact or medical device manufacturing processes?

A: BL301 is not certified for direct food-contact or implantable medical devices. It meets ISO 10993-5 (cytotoxicity) for short-term tool contact but lacks USP Class VI or FDA 21 CFR 175.300 compliance for end-product migration requirements.


Q5: Are there documented extraction studies for residual monomers or solvents after development and hard bake?

A: Yes—GC-MS analysis per ICH Q5C confirms residual solvent levels <10 ppm post-hard-bake (130 °C, 60 min), and no detectable free phenol or formaldehyde leachables (<0.1 ppm) under simulated acidic aqueous extraction (pH 3.0, 72 h, 25 °C).
