Hello Edward,
Does your spin coater have backside rinsing capability? Also, the
exhaust during spin can actually create more problems as this
dramatically increases turbulence in the spinner environment. One more
thing to increase uniformity of the coating is a solvent rich
environment which can be achieved by a cup rinse during spin or if you
can not do this pour solvent bath in the spinner bowl. This can be the
primary solvent of your resist.
