Mathew,

If you are saying that you would like to thermally reflow SU-8 so that
high aspect ratio pillar structures sag into each other to form an arch,
then, unfortunately, the answer is: no, you will not be able to do this.
Once it has been exposed/crosslinked/developed, SU-8 does not, for all
intents and purposes, have a glass transition temperature (it will begin
to thermally decompose before a glass transition temperature can be
achieved).

Best Regards,
Chad Brubaker

Hello..
  My problem is, can SU8 photoresist be subjected to thermal overflow to
produce an arch like structure on which metal can be deposited? I want
to obtain a metal inductor in an arch like fashion after the SU8 is
developed and removed.. Can somebody help please?
