What is photolithography?
• In photolithography, desired patterns, as designed on a mask, are transferred to a silicon
wafer.
• UV light is shone through the mask on a wafer with a film of photo-sensitive polymer aka
photoresist.
• Depending on type of the photoresist, the exposed regions either stay or removed
