Abstract

The spin coating process is extensively used, particularly in microelectronics, for coating planar or pseudo-planar surfaces. Spin coating has long been accepted as the best coating method for obtaining a thin (0.5–2 μm), uniform, adherent, homogeneous film over the wafer. It is accomplished by floading the substrate with a polymer solution and rotating it at a constant speed (1000–8000 rpm) until the solvent is evaporated.
