Abstract
This invention generally relates to planarisation of a surface of a substrate. In an embodiment of planarising a surface region of a substrate, the substrate having a body on a portion of said surface region, the method comprises: modifying the wetability of a surface of said body with respect to a liquid planariser composition by providing a surface modifying layer such as a self-assembled monolayer thereon; and then depositing the liquid planariser composition on said substrate and said body such that the planariser composition wets said surface region, wherein said surface modifying layer determines a contact angle of said liquid planariser composition to said surface of said body such that the deposited liquid planariser composition is repelled from said surface of said body.
