However, the existing studies all focused on optimizing the process pa-rameters or mask design, and could not be popularized. The purpose of this paper is to reduce the internal stress in cured SU-8 photoresist layer by ultrasonic stress relief technology. The ultrasonic stress relief mechanism in SU-8 photoresist layer was presented. Based on improved Stoney’s formula, the profile mothod calculation model for SU-8 internal stress was proposed. The effect of ultrasonic stress relief on SU-8 layers was studied by experiments. Some important factors, such as amplitude of vibration, power input and relief time, were discussed. The values of internal stress before and after the ultrasonic stress relief process were compared. The research results show that the internal stress in cured SU-8 layer can be reduced effectively if the proper experimental parameters are chosen, and ultrasonic stress relief technology in nonmetal field has some practical value.展开更多

Due to the 2PP effect of the photoresist caused by the femtosecond laser, the polymeric line with size less than the focal spot size is obtained. Based on the Raman spectroscopy characterization of SU-8 polymer before and after 2PP, we research the dynamic process of femtosecond laser induced 2PP. In Raman spectra, some scattering peaks with large intensity variation, such as 1 108 cm^(-1) and 1 183 cm^(-1), indicate that the asymmetric stretching vibration of C-O-C bond in SU-8 polymer is increased. By comparison, we can find that 2PP only affects the light absorption of initiator, but does not affect the monomer polymerization. It is helpful to understand the interaction of photoresist and femtosecond laser, and plays an important role in quantitatively controlling the polymerization degree of SU-8 polymer and improving the processing resolution of 2PP.展开更多
