[mems-talk] Vertical SU-8 walls

Exposure with <340nm leads to negative sidewall slopes rather than 
postive which is the observed problem unless I misread it.
Abhishek, are the structures 30um at the top and 60um wide at the 
bottom? If it's the other way round (60 at the top, 30 at the bottom) 
then a filter could indeed be the answer.
