Exceptionally we present a new PMMA developer in the “Resist of the month” section today, because its potential possibilities will probably also inspire our users. This developer is a mixture of isopropanol and water – which may sound surprising at first, since both components individually do not attack PMMA layers.
We strongly condemn Putin’s brutal war of aggression. He brings untold suffering to the people of Ukraine.
On January 28, 2022, Brigitte and Matthias Schirmer were awarded the Order of Merit of the State of Brandenburg by Prime Minister Dietmar Woidke. This extraordinarily high award for special achievement recognizes their work and in particular their commitment to sustainability. From the very beginning, it was of particular importance for the Schirmer couple to implement not only economic success, but with equal importance social and ecological aspects in their newly founded company Allresist.
Phoenix 81 was developed as part of a Eurostar project in cooperation with Swisslitho AG (now Heidelberg Instruments Nano). Using a NanoFrazor and thermal scanning probe lithography (t-SPL), structures as small as 10 nm can be written by dipping a hot needle into the resist layer and evaporating the resist at the tip (see also AR NEWS, 42nd issue).

Many companies meanwhile use the conductivity of Electra layers for their processes and technologies. Since its introduction on the market in 2018, synthesis and processing of Electra have continuously been improved. The conductivity of this resist could for example be increased by a factor of five between 2018 and 2020.
The successful evaluation of our development at one of our largest customers was the reason for us to select AR-N 4400-50 as resist of the month of July.

4. CSAR 62 – great demand around the world
Resist CSAR 62 is meanwhile established worldwide, with continuously increasing demands. Since we manufacture the polymer by ourselves, we had to scale up polymer synthesis. First of all, CSAR 62 made the jump from laboratory scale to a 20-liter trailer.
