[mems-talk] Splash back problems with resist spin

I'm not familiar with the MTS 8800.

On the coat equipment I've used, there is a nozzle which shoots solvent 
onto the back of the wafer as one of the final steps.

Without this, I don't think it would be possible to prevent resist 
contamination on the back of the wafer and maintain process latitude of 
the machine.
