RZJ-325 Photoresist

RZJ-325 Photoresist is a high-resolution positive-tone photoresist from RZJ’s advanced lithography series, engineered for semiconductor and MEMS fabrication. Featuring excellent sensitivity, thermal stability, and aqueous alkaline developability, it delivers precise pattern transfer with sub-micron resolution. Compatible with g-line/i-line exposure tools, RZJ-325 ensures consistent film uniformity and low defect density across silicon, glass, and compound substrates.

Features Of RZJ-325 Photoresist

  1. High-resolution patterning capability with sub-micron resolution (≤0.8 µm) under standard i-line (365 nm) exposure.

  2. Excellent adhesion to silicon, silicon dioxide, and metal substrates without additional primers.

  3. Optimized for high-throughput spin-coating processes with consistent film thickness uniformity (<±3% across 200 mm wafers).

  4. Low outgassing profile during post-exposure bake (PEB), minimizing contamination in vacuum-based lithography tools.

  5. Stable shelf life of 12 months when stored at 2–8 °C in original sealed container.

Typical Applications Of RZJ-325 Photoresist

  1. Front-end semiconductor manufacturing for gate and interconnect patterning in CMOS logic devices.

  2. MEMS fabrication requiring high aspect-ratio resist profiles and etch resistance.

  3. Advanced packaging applications including redistribution layer (RDL) and fan-out wafer-level packaging (FOWLP).

  4. Microfluidic device prototyping on glass and fused silica substrates.

  5. LED and power device fabrication involving thick-film (>2 µm) photoresist processing.

RZJ-325 Photoresist – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for RZJ-325 Photoresist?

A: RZJ-325 Photoresist is a proprietary multi-component formulation; individual CAS numbers are assigned to key constituents only. Full compositional disclosure is available under NDA upon request.


Q2: What is the typical coating thickness range and corresponding spin speed for RZJ-325?

A: At 25 wt% solids, target thicknesses of 1.0–2.2 µm are achieved at 2,500–4,500 rpm (200 mm Si wafers); exact speed depends on substrate topography and ambient humidity.


Q3: How does RZJ-325 compare to RZJ-210 in terms of resolution and etch resistance?

A: RZJ-325 offers superior resolution (≤0.8 µm vs. ≥1.2 µm for RZJ-210) and ~25% higher etch resistance in CF₄/O₂ plasma, but requires tighter process control for PEB temperature uniformity.


Q4: Is RZJ-325 suitable for use in medical device manufacturing under ISO 10993 or USP Class VI requirements?

A: RZJ-325 is not certified for direct biocompatibility testing. Residual resist must be fully removed prior to device release; it is intended for fabrication only—not as a final device material.


Q5: Are there known migration or solvent extraction concerns when RZJ-325 residues remain after development and etching?

A: Fully developed and stripped RZJ-325 leaves no detectable extractables under standard SEMI cleaning protocols (SC1 + Piranha). Residual traces may occur if strip time is insufficient; recommended final clean: 10 min O₂ plasma ash followed by DI water rinse.
