Abstract

A method is provided for more efficient application of a polymeric coating (e.g., die coat) to a substrate (e.g., wafer) surface. One aspect of the method comprises applying an organic liquid (e.g., organic solvent) to the wafer and spinning it to coat the entire wafer surface prior to the application of die coat. This reduces surface tension on the wafer and reduces the amount of die coat required to achieve a high quality film.
