Application Notes

Clearing dose

The only PEC-parameter that Beamfox Proximity cannot calculate automatically is the clearing dose, which depends on resist baking conditions, development temperature, etc. This application note describes how to measure it with a simple test exposure.

Write field import

Beamfox Proximity provides control of write field placement and the writing order, and allows implementing advanced writing strategies, by importing user-defined YAML text files. This document explains the format used to generate write fields and alignment markers using YAML files.
