Information advantage in sensing revealed by Fano-resonant Fourier scatterometry

Researchers at AMOLF and ARCNL fabricated dielectric metarings for optical sensing using a Cee® Apogee® 200 Spin Coater to apply HSQ resist to amorphous-silicon-coated glass. The work compares Fourier scatterometry with spectral sensing of nanoscale structural changes.

How Cee® equipment is used

HSQ was spin coated to a reported thickness of 60 nm at 8000 rpm for 60 s, with an acceleration of 1000 rpm/s. Electron-beam lithography and plasma etching then defined the silicon metarings. The substrate was a glass coverslip carrying 120 nm of amorphous silicon; its lateral dimensions were not specified. The paper identifies the Cee® coater for resist deposition and does not identify the bake equipment manufacturer. Source: Methods, Sample design and nanofabrication.
