Optimization and application of Epon SU-8, an ultra-thick negative photoresist

Another application that requires ultra-thick photoresist films is micromachining in MEMS. Extremely large structure heights are frequently required for micro-electrodeposition of mechanical components such as coils, cantilevers and valves. These applications may require photoresist in excess of a h...
