3. C.  Materials
3. C. 001. Hetero‑epitaxial materials consisting of a "substrate" having stacked epitaxially grown multiple layers of any of the following:
a. Silicon (Si);
b. Germanium (Ge);
c. Silicon carbide (SiC); or
d. "III/V compounds" of gallium or indium.
Note: 3C001.d. does not apply to a "substrate" having one or more P‑type epitaxial layers of GaN, InGaN, AlGaN, InAlN, InAlGaN, GaP, GaAs, AlGaAs, InP, InGaP, AlInP or InGaAlP, independent of the sequence of the elements, except if the P‑type epitaxial layer is between N‑type layers.
e.  Gallium Oxide (Ga2O3); or
f. Diamond.
3. C. 002. Resist materials as follows and "substrates" coated with the following resists:
a. Resists designed for semiconductor lithography as follows:
1. Positive resists adjusted (optimised) for use at wavelengths less than 193 nm but equal to or greater than 15 nm;
2. Resists adjusted (optimised) for use at wavelengths less than 15 nm but greater than 1 nm;
b. All resists designed for use with electron beams or ion beams, with a sensitivity of 0.01 µcoulomb/mm2 or better;
c. Not used:
d. All resists optimised for surface imaging technologies;
e. All resists designed or optimised for use with imprint lithography equipment specified by 3B001.f.2. that use either a thermal or photo‑curable process.
