Process for removing photoresist material

摘要

A process for removing photoresist material without any residues left and damage to the in-process substrate is described. The present process for removing photoresist on an in-process substrate comprises the steps of providing a cover layer which is to be etched on the in-process substrate and providing a layer of photoresist material thereon. The photoresist layer is patterned, exposed and developed. Then, the developed photoresist layer is further exposed without using a mask. The cover layer is etched with the use of the patterned photoresist layer. After etching, the photoresist material is removed by a solvent.
