A tentative poster going over the basics of my process. More in-depth posters will be made viewable in the next couple of weeks.

A quick post today:
After working out some snags with new chemicals, this past week has finally afforded me some actual progress on my wafer lithography. I’ll explain later as I document the multi-month process, but for now here’s a trio of screencaps from the microscope. As usual, click on the images for full size.

Small Vernier scale used to gauge how the development of a particular layer is going.

Continuing yesterday’s posting, here is another part from the senior project folder. This time a CMOS inverter (NOT gate). Positive and negative power is applied to the device, which will inverse a given input at the output. This inverter was designed at 300µm for the sake of practicality. A later post will show another CMOS inverter re-designed at 50µm. This inverter is comprised of eight process layers and masks.
