We are very happy to announce the start of our new white paper series, with which we want to share a deep tech know-how and application expertise of materials, polymers and photopolymers. In future, we will present technical details of our comprehensive material portfolio being applied in different lithographic technologies for the manufacturing of various micro- and nanopatterns as well as their defined application scenarios in new and groundbreaking devices.
In this first white paper we will inform the reader on Cyclic Olefin Copolymers (COCs) which are well-known polymers suitable for a broad variety of different applications in diverse industrial sectors. Such scopes of applications reach from food packaging to high-tech applications like optical thin films for sensor systems or the manufacturing of micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) and micro total analysis systems (μTAS). The deposition of well-defined COC thin films with several microns or sub-micron thickness via spin-coating is often required for the manufacturing purposes of such technological devices. In this white paper we will give an overview on different applications for thin film COC usage and we will comment on some general beneficial material characteristics of this outstanding polymer class.
