ma-P 1275 HV process recipe

ma-P 1275 HV is the high-viscosity version of ma-P 1275, coating 11 µm at 3000 rpm and up to 50 µm at 380 rpm — thicker plating moulds reached at higher spin speeds than the standard grade needs.

transcribed from the Film thicknesses table, p.2 of the ma-P 1200 series product sheet (ls.24.02.01) — the four ma-P 1275 HV entries tabulated at a 60 s spin time. The 11 µm entry is at 30 s and is kept out of this series.

Redrawn from the manufacturer's published data — hover to read between points, click to pin.
  • Four entries at a 60 s spin time form a real series: 50 µm at 380 rpm, 40 µm at 450, 30 µm at 600 and 20 µm at 1000.
  • The fifth, 11 µm at 3000 rpm, uses a 30 s spin and is left out of it.
  • The practical difference from standard ma-P 1275 is where the thicknesses land: HV reaches 20 µm at 1000 rpm where 1275 needs 500 rpm, and 40 µm at 450 rpm where 1275 needs 250.
  • The sheet's smooth-line chart adds no numeric data.

03 / Exposure

Exposure dose

No exposure dose is published for ma-P 1275 HV at any thickness. The sheet's example structures were all made on a mask aligner with broadband exposure, so a broadband dose matrix is the place to start. Run a dose array on your own tool to land the working dose.

Not published for this resist: Dose at 365 nm, Dose at 405 nm — characterize on-tool.

Where it's used

Practical notes from the datasheet

ma-P 1275 HV is the high-viscosity sibling of ma-P 1275, sold for the same job — moulds for electroplated microstructures — but with a higher viscosity that reaches a given thickness at a higher spin speed. It covers 11 µm at 3000 rpm and 20-50 µm between 1000 and 380 rpm, where the standard grade needs 250-500 rpm for its thicker films and stops at 40 µm. The sheet shows it at 50 and 56 µm, and electroplated nickel structures up to 48 µm tall from it. It shares the series characteristics: high stability in plating baths, high dry and wet etch resistance, sidewalls up to 87° with broadband exposure, and suitability for reflow. What it lacks is any published exposure dose, so dose has to be found on-tool; the sheet also gives no softbake, developer product or develop time.
