description | A method and apparatus for forming a tapered photoresist edge. The method includes: forming a photoresist layer on a substrate; exposing a first annular region of the photoresist layer adjacent to a perimeter of the substrate to actinic radiation, the first annular region having a first outer perimeter proximate to a perimeter of the substrate and a first inner perimeter away from the perimeter of the substrate, the actinic radiation gradually decreasing in intensity from the first outer perimeter to the first inner perimeter; and developing the exposed first annular region of the photoresist layer to form a tapered profile in a second annular region of the photoresist layer, the second annular region having a second perimeter proximate to the perimeter of the substrate and a second inner perimeter away from the substrate perimeter, the profile gradually increasing in thickness from the second outer perimeter to the second inner perimeter. |
