Abstract
Stress and crack-free development of resist layers or films, for example composed of PMMA, used in production of galvanically generated flat precision parts is achieved. Resist layers having a thickness of at least 100 .mu.m are exposed via electron lithography or x-ray lithography techniques whereby very fine structure patterns having dimensions in the micron and sub-micron range are attained and developed with a developer comprised of a mixture of a material selected from the glycol ether group, a material selected from the primary amine group, a material selected from the aqueous group and a material selected from the azine group. Aspect ratios of 30:1 are achieved without dark errosion. Residual PMMA components remaining after development, as well as the developer itself, are fully removed with a post-development rinsing with water so that no disruptive layer residues remain on the surface which has been uncovered through development.
