Abstract:
An exemplary semiconductor wafer includes a lower sublayer of a first organic planarization layer (OPL) material; an upper sublayer of a second OPL material deposited onto the lower sublayer; and a detectable interface between the lower sublayer and the upper sublayer. The exemplary wafer is fabricated by depositing the lower sublayer; curing the lower sublayer; and after curing the lower sublayer, depositing the upper sublayer directly onto the lower sublayer.
