摘要:
A Rat IgG antibody film, formed on a p-type Si substrate, is selectively irradiated with ultraviolet rays, thereby leaving part of the Rat IgG antibody film, except for a region deactivated with the ultraviolet rays. Next, when the p-type Si substrate is immersed in a solution containing Au fine particles that have been combined with a Rat IgG antigen, the Rat IgG antigen is selectively combined with the Rat IgG antibody film. As a result, Au fine particles, combined with the Rat IgG antigen, are fixed on the Rat IgG antibody film. Thereafter, the p-type Si substrate is placed within oxygen plasma for 20 minutes, thereby removing the Rat IgG antibody film, the deactivated Rat IgG antibody film and the Rat IgG antigen. Consequently, dot elements can be formed at desired positions on the p-type Si substrate. If these dot elements are used for the floating gate of a semiconductor memory device, then the device has a structure suitable for miniaturization.

A resist film is formed on a semiconductor substrate by using a chemical amplification resist which generates a base in response to the radiation of KrF excimer laser light and which reacts with the base. If the resist film is irradiated with the KrF excimer laser light through a mask, the base is generated in the surface of an exposed portion of the resist film, so that the surface of the exposed portion is made hydrophilic by the base. If water vapor is supplied to the surface of the resist film, water is diffused from the surface of the exposed portion into a deep portion. If vapor of e.g. methyltriethoxysilane is sprayed onto the surface of the resist film in air at a relative humidity of 95%, an oxide film with a sufficiently large thickness is selectively formed on the surface of the exposed portion.

A resist film which generates a sulfonic acid through irradiation with an energy beam is irradiated with a KrF excimer laser beam through a mask to generate a sulfonic acid in the exposed area. Then, a semiconductor substrate is immersed in a solution of polysiloxane having an amino group, and dried. This causes the electrostatic adsorption of the polysiloxane having an ammonium ion on the surface of the exposed area of the resist film where a sulfonic acid ion is present to form a polysiloxane film. Thereafter, the resist film is subjected to O 2 plasma etching by using the polysiloxane film as a mask to form a resist pattern.
摘要:
A first correlation is obtained which is a correlation between latent image height produced after exposure on a resist layer, and resist pattern linewidth for a given length of develop time. Additionally, a second correlation is obtained which is a correlation between develop time for each exposure energy dose and resist pattern linewidth. The height of a latent image produced on an actually exposed resist layer is determined. From the first correlation, an estimated resist pattern linewidth, which is a resist pattern linewidth corresponding to a latent image height and to a given length of develop time, is found. From the second correlation, an estimated exposure energy dose, which is an exposure energy dose corresponding to a given length of develop time and to an estimated resist patten linewidth, is found. Additionally, also from the second correlation, develop time corresponding to a target resist pattern linewidth and to an estimated exposure energy dose is found, and according to the develop time found, a resist pattern is formed.

A stable and accurate fine resist pattern which is not influenced by the time of standing from radiation exposure to heat treatment after radiation exposure, can be formed by coating a chemical amplification resist film containing an acid-generating agent with a water-soluble polymer resin incompatible with the resist film.
摘要:
In a pattern formation method employing immersion lithography, after a resist film is formed on a wafer, pattern exposure is performed by selectively irradiating the resist film with exposing light with a liquid including an unsaturated aliphatic acid, such as sunflower oil or olive oil including oleic acid, provided on the resist film. After the pattern exposure, the resist film is developed so as to form a resist pattern made of the resist film.

An exposure system includes an exposure section (50) provided within a chamber (30) for irradiating a resist film formed on a wafer (40) with exposing light through a mask (41) with an immersion liquid (42) provided on the resist film. It further includes a drying section (54) for drying the surface of the resist film after the irradiation.
摘要:
A semiconductor manufacturing apparatus includes a liquid supplying section for supplying a liquid onto a stage for holding a wafer on which a resist film is formed; an exposing section for irradiating the resist film with exposing light through a mask with the liquid provided on the resist film; and a removing part for removing, from the liquid, a gas included in the liquid. Thus, the liquid from which the gas has been removed is provided on the resist film, and therefore, foams included in the liquid or formed during the exposure can be removed. Accordingly, exposure abnormality such as diffraction abnormality can be prevented, resulting in forming a resist pattern in a good shape.
摘要:
A resist film made of a chemically amplified resist including a water-soluble polymer is formed on a substrate, whereas the water-soluble polymer has lower gas permeability than the chemically amplified resist. Subsequently, pattern exposure is carried out by selectively irradiating the resist film with exposing light through a mask, and thereafter, the resultant resist film is developed. Thus, a fine resist pattern made of the resist film is formed in a good shape.
