We etch sputtered photo resist with diluted hydrofluoric acid (concentrated HF:DI Water=1:13) at room temperature. It etches about @ 1700 A/min. Note that etch rate may varied on pre and post bake time and temperature of photo resist. So while etching you need to look your sample under the microscope every 15 seconds interval. We use Shipley 1813 positive photo resist for this purpose. Mukti M Rana PhD.
