  • Publication number: 20240085810
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing post-exposure bake operations is described herein. After exposure of photoresist on a substrate, the substrate is heated during a baking process to facilitate protection of the resist. The baking process is performed in a vacuum environment at sub-atmospheric pressures. After baking at reduced pressure, the substrate is cooled. The cooling process is performed at sub-atmospheric pressures. Further development of the resist is performed at ambient pressures.
