Meifang, Have you tried treating the surface of the SU8 to make it slick. A heptadeca fluoro tri ethoxy trichloro silane can create surfaces slicker than Teflon. Contact me for further technical data.

At present, I can get beautiful structures on Si after the photolithography process (including hard bake at 150 ⁰C for 30 min). However, when I was trying to transfer the structure to PMMA (1 inch square) by hot embossing (pressure is 300 Kg, 125 ⁰C for 10min, and the demolding temperature is 90 ⁰C), all the Su-8 structures stayed in PMMA and separated from Si wafer. I have tried the HMDS, but it seems no difference. Does anyone have similar experience? Any suggestion will be appreciated.
