Hi.

I am doing research on 2D material (Graphene, MoS2 etc) based FETs.

After metal deposition and lift-off, many many black dots are randomly scattered on the surface of metal electrodes (see attached file).

I don't know what they are, where they are from, and how to remove them.

My experimental process as follows:

1. Prepare channel materials on SiO2/Si

2. PMMA A6 spin-coating for E beam lithography

3. Post bake 120C/2 min on hot plate

4. perform E beam lithography for contact patterning

5. development with MIBK

6. contact electrode deposition with e-beam evaporator (low 10^-6 torr)

7. lift-off with warm acetone (~60C)

Thank you.
