Currently, I'm using Dichromated PVA based homemade photoresist. The problem is without polygon mirror scanner, it is very slow but result is impressive. The exposure time required for 1.5 mil spot is ~20 microseconds.

I assume that you are doing UV exposure as opposed to ablation as mentioned in the earlier post.
