Hi Sonia,

   I have the similar problem of your first one before. I think that is
because your softbake didn't get rid of solvent in SU-8 completely. Try to
softbake at 95 degree C for a longer time. That should be able to solve the
problem. At least, it worked for me.

   I am not quite sure about your second problem. But I guess it might be
due to the reflection from your gold layer. That might expose some areas you
don't want to.

   Good Luck

Richard
