NanoFabSimulator Update Nick Reeder, May 31, 2012
Update to Scales • Changed vertical and horizontal scales on display, and added menu option to make scales equal or not. • Question: Vertical scale’s max value is 2 m, but most of our photoresists spin to coats thicker than 2 m. Should we eliminate all but the thinnest viscosities?
Updates to Dialog Boxes • User now specifies: • Power, pressure, and time for Sputter. • Voltage, current, and time for Evaporate. • Pressure, temperature, and time for CVD. • Need look-up tables to interpolate deposition rates based on user-supplied parameters. (Currently rate = 0.1 m/sec for all of these processes.) • Question: • For each of the above, what limits should we impose on the values that the user can enter?
Updates to Plasma Etch Code • User now specifies power and pressure (as well as time), and the code adjusts etch rate accordingly. • Questions: • What limits should we impose on the power and pressure values that the user can enter? • On next slide, do curves for etch-scale-factor versus pressure look right?
Related Questions • For spin coat, what are reasonable max/min values for rpm? • For implant, max/min values for dose and ion energy? • For bake, max/min values for temperature?
New Code: Bake • Began coding Bake model based on • Need values of S0 and for our photoresists.
To-Do List • Fix spin-coat code so that resist does not adhere to underside of horizontal surfaces. • Implement look-up tables to compute deposition rates for evaporate, CVD, and sputter based on user-supplied parameters. • Fix oxidize, develop, polish dialog boxes to ask user for correct parameters, and write code to compute depth from these values. • Continue writing bake code; need values for S0 and . • In expose code, implement diffraction of UV in air and absorption within resist, with dependence on solvent content from bake code. • Fix etch code so that (for photoresist) etch rates depend on solvent content from bake code. • Write new code for • Lift-off • Clean • Profilometer • Write time-cost-quality code for all operations. • Write online help text. • Produce videos, photos, text for Tutorial tab.
