Chris,
This is a very interesting question. Maybe you can provide the average shape
and dimension of your recessed structures to help people understand your
situation better.
I would try letting photoresist cover the wafer completely (instead of 1/3 or 1
/4 of the wafer surface) before spining, and perhaps spining at a slower rate
initially. I am curious about whether you have tried these.
