Abstract

Laser lithography technique is useful for fabricating micro-patterns of silicon wafers. In this work, the laser lithography micromachining technique is optimized based on Taguchi method. Sensitivity analysis was performed using laser scanning speed, laser power level, developing time and mixture ratio between developer and Di-water as the parameters. The results show that for the photoresist used in this work, 70${\mu}m$/s scan speed, 50㎽ laser power, 60sec. developing time and 6: 1 mixture ratio gives the best result. This work shows the effectiveness of laser lithography technique in fabricating patterns with a flew micrometer in width.
