High-resolution patterning capability with sub-micron resolution (≤0.8 µm) under standard i-line (365 nm) exposure.
Excellent thermal stability up to 130 °C, enabling robust post-exposure bake (PEB) and etch resistance.
Low outgassing profile suitable for vacuum-based lithography tools and cleanroom environments (Class 100 compatible).
Optimized adhesion to silicon, SiO₂, and metal substrates without requiring additional HMDS priming in most cases.
Consistent batch-to-batch performance validated via in-house QC testing per ISO 9001 protocols.
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) fabrication requiring high-aspect-ratio resist profiles.
Semiconductor packaging processes including wafer-level fan-out (FO-WLP) and redistribution layer (RDL) patterning.
Flat panel display (FPD) manufacturing for TFT array and color filter alignment layers.
Advanced sensor fabrication (e.g., image sensors, pressure sensors) demanding low defect density and high sensitivity.
Research & development in academic and industrial nanofabrication labs using contact/proximity aligners.

Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for RZJ-5312H Photoresist?
A: RZJ-5312H is a proprietary multi-component formulation; individual CAS numbers are assigned to key constituents (e.g., novolac resin: 9003-35-4; DNQ: 87-33-2). A full composition disclosure requires signed CDA.
Q2: What is the recommended spin-coating thickness and corresponding spin speed range for 1.2 µm film?
A: For 1.2 µm nominal thickness on silicon wafers, spin at 2500–3000 rpm for 30 seconds; final thickness tolerance is ±5% when humidity is controlled at 40–50% RH.
Q3: How does RZJ-5312H compare to AZ® nLOF 2020 in terms of resolution and etch resistance?
A: RZJ-5312H achieves comparable resolution (≤0.8 µm) but offers ~15% higher etch resistance in CF₄/O₂ plasma versus AZ® nLOF 2020, while maintaining similar sensitivity and process window.
Q4: Are there any known extractables or leachables identified during ICH Q5E stability studies?
A: No extractables above reporting thresholds (≥0.1 ppm) were detected after 6-month accelerated aging (40 °C/75% RH) per ICH Q5E guidelines; certified extractables report available under NDA.
