Hi, For the bubbles, using a microscope we can see something like bubbles in the resist used for the lift-off process. Yes you are right, by "etching the resist", I was thinking of lift-off the silane layer. The silane is injected at 80 °C during about 3h (I am mot sure), but befor injection, a dehydratation is done at 100 °C under vacuum. Thank you for this first answer.
