A photo resist composition contains a polymer resin, a first photo acid generator (PAG) requiring a first dose of actinic energy to generate a first photo acid, and a photo base generator (PBG) requiring a second dose of actinic energy, different from the first dose, to generate a photo base. The amounts and types of components in the photo resist are selected to produce a hybrid resist image. Either the first photo acid or photo base acts as a catalyst for a chemical transformation in the resist to induce a solubility change. The other compound is formulated in material type and loading in the resist such that it acts as a quenching agent. The catalyst is formed at low doses to induce the solubility change and the quenching agent is formed at higher doses to counterbalance the presence of the catalyst. Accordingly, the same frequency doubling effect of conventional hybrid resist compositions may be obtained, however, either a line or a space may be formed at the edge of an aerial image. Feature size may also be influenced by incorporating a quenching agent into the resist composition that does not require photo generation.

A spray nozzle is used in a process of quenching a hot glass sheet during a laser scoring process or other high energy glass heating process. The scoring is conducted by a high energy means such as a laser. The nozzle is located in proximity to the glass sheet, creating gas in liquid used to quench the glass located in the nozzle (e.g., water). The gas (e.g., air bubbles) is removed from the quenching liquid. Then, the spray nozzle is used to spray the quenching liquid onto the sheet at a location trailing laser scoring of the sheet, such as using a traveling anvil machine at the bottom of the draw.

This cools the quenching liquid passing through the nozzle, and increases the solubility of bubbles in the quenching liquid in the nozzle. A gas filter can receive gas-rich quenching liquid from the pressurized quenching liquid source, remove gas from the liquid, and send gas-depleted quenching liquid to the spray nozzle.
