Zusammenfassung: | A method for locally removing/modifying a polymer material on a surface of a wafer. The method includes: a) aligning a mask with respect to the surface; b) locally exposing the surface through the mask using a VUV light source while simultaneously supplying a gas mixture containing at least oxygen; c) purging the surface with a gas mixture containing at least nitrogen and oxygen, the VUV light source being switched off; and d) repeating at least steps b) and c) until the removal/modification is complete. A device is described for locally removing/modifying a polymer material on a surface of a wafer, including a mask. The device includes an adjustable wafer table for holding the wafer, and is configured to set an exposure gap between the wafer and the mask in a first operating state, and to set a purge gap between the wafer and the mask in a second operating state. |
