Spin-coat positive resist on SU-8 layer?
Joseph Grogan
2005-06-27
When trying to get things to stick to cured SU8, I found that a brief
plasma treatment of the surface helps a lot with adhesion. About one
minute of oxygen plasma around 100 watts should do the job, but you can
experiment with the exact time and power to get the best results.

good luck,
Joe Grogan
