Au lift off

Hi Shifeng,

What resist thickness you used? You need to have a thick resist to
successfully lift off high aspect ratio structures. I normally use about a
couple of microns to lift off features with thickness of 250 nm. You need to
have thick resist to avoid flow over profiles which hampers lift-off.
