Problems with thermal evaporation -2

Hi all,
       As a follow up to the above question , does ashing the sample with the PR
in an Oxygen plasma help in the lift off
process ( by cleaning up the remnant undesireable PR that is left).
    Please let me know,
                Thanks
                      Dipankar

lift off of Cu / Cr top electrodes using LOR

evaporation without breaking vacuum.

lift off of 0.25 um Cu/ 200 A Cr. However

of it peels off ).
