Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for RFJ-210B Photoresist?
A: RFJ-210B is a proprietary formulation; individual components are disclosed under NDA. The bulk product is assigned CAS No. 2277472-89-1 for regulatory tracking and SDS alignment.
Q2: What is the recommended coating thickness and corresponding spin speed range?
A: Target thickness: 1.2–1.8 µm (after soft bake). Achieved via spin coating at 2500–3500 rpm for 30 seconds on 200 mm wafers; exact speed depends on substrate geometry and ambient humidity.
Q3: How does RFJ-210B compare to RFJ-210A in terms of resolution and process latitude?
A: RFJ-210B offers ~15% higher resolution (0.8 µm vs. 0.95 µm) and extended depth-of-focus (+12%) due to refined polymer molecular weight distribution and DNQ loading optimization—ideal for tighter CD control in RDL applications.
Q4: Is RFJ-210B compliant with food-contact or medical device regulations (e.g., USP Class VI, ISO 10993)?
A: No. RFJ-210B is not intended for direct food contact or implantable medical devices. It is designed for industrial microfabrication only. Residual monomer extraction data and biocompatibility testing are not performed.
Q5: Does RFJ-210B exhibit measurable extractables or leachables under standard wafer cleaning conditions (e.g., SC1, DHF)?
A: Residual resist removal is complete after standard piranha (H₂SO₄:H₂O₂) or oxygen plasma ashing. Trace organic extractables (<5 ng/cm²) may be detected by GC-MS after aggressive HF-based cleans; no metallic leachables observed per ICP-MS analysis.
