As a step in performing a process on a structure, a hole pattern is
provided in a thin layer of organic resin masking material formed over
the structure to provide a process mask. A processing step is then
performed through the openings in the mask, and after a processing step
is completed the mask is adjusted by a re-flow process in which the
structure is placed into an atmosphere of solvent vapor of a solvent of
the mask material. By way of the reflow process, the mask material
softens and re-flows to reduce the size of the openings in the mask
causing edges of the surface areas on which the processing step was
performed to be covered by the mask for subsequent processing steps.
