using PR as mask wet etch Ni is no good. I used hard baked AZ5214 as mask
for Ni etch ( using Ni etch TFB), the edge is always rough: side etch is
non-uniform. I sputtered Al on top of Ni, etch Al first as etching mask for
Ni, it is better, but still not perfect. Also, this way you have two times
side etch, so for fine line pattern not pratical. Ni is best using liftoff.
