How to choose the correct parameters yourself

A good place to start is the Unofficial dose calculator

  • Choose the EBL tool (100 or 125 keV)
  • Write field size (µm) and Dots: The combination of these two will give you the pixel size for a default pitch of 1.
    • It is recommended to use high number of dots with a pitch multiplier for fine exposures
  • Aperture and Beam current: The combination of these two will give you the beam spot size

The pixel size should be equal to the beam spot size

  • Area dose: The recommended dose for the combination of substrate and resist stack that you have. If you don't know this value you can do a dose test for your substrate/resist combination or consult the Doses page
