However, after hardbake (85 degree C for 20minutes), the photoresist reflows and does not maintain the near vertical profile. I wonder if anybody knows anyway to prevent the reflow of photoresist during the hardbake process? Thanks a lot. Leo Electrical and Computer Engineering Purdue University liu79@purdue.edu
