摘要:
The invention provides new photoresist compositions that contain a resin binder and a blend of photoacid generators. Photoacid generator blends of the invention produce photoacids that differ in acid strength and/or size. A specific composition comprises a terpolymer having units of hydroxystyrene, styrene and t-butyl acrylate with the photoacid generators di-(4-tbutylphenyl)iodonium camphorsulfonate and di-(4-t-butylphenyl)iodonium o-trifluoromethylbenzene sulfonate.

Several mid UV photo acid generators (PAGs), a chemically amplified photo resist (CAMP), and method for improving nested to isolated line bias are provided. Similarly, photo speed may also be improved. Unlike conventional mid UV PAGs, the present invention's PAG compounds, resist composition, and method do not require a mid UV sensitizer. Specifically, PAGs are provided that bear a chromophore capable of receiving mid UV radiation, particularly I-line, and that are suitable for use in a chemically amplified photo resist having a photo speed of 500 mJ/cm.sup.2 or less, but preferrably 200 mJ/cm.sup.2 or less. For example, the PAGs can be a sulfonium or iodonium salt, such as anthryl, butyl, methyl sulfonium triflate and bis(4-t-butylphenyl)iodonium 9,10-dimethoxyanthracene sulfonate. The chromophore forming a part of the PAGs can be selected from polyaromatic hydrocarbons, for example, chrysenes, pyrenes, fluoranthenes, anthrones, benzophenones, thioxanthones, anthracenes, and phenanthrenes, but preferably anthracenes.

摘要:
Resist compositions having good footing properties even on difficult substrates are obtained by using a combination of base additives including a room temperature solid base, and a liquid low vapor pressure base. The compositions are especially useful on metal substrates such as chromium-containing layers commonly used in mask-making.
摘要:
Antireflective compositions characterized by the presence of an SiO-containing polymer having pendant chromophore moieties are useful antireflective coating/hardmask compositions in lithographic processes. These compositions provide outstanding optical, mechanical and etch selectivity properties while being applicable using spin-on application techniques. The compositions are especially useful in lithographic processes used to configure underlying material layers on a substrate, especially metal or semiconductor layers.
摘要:
A negative resist composition, comprising: (a) silicon-containing polymer with pendant fused moieties selected from the group consisting of fused aliphatic moieties, homocyclic fused aromatic moieties, and heterocyclic fused aromatic and sites for reaction with a crosslinking agent, (b) an acid-sensitive crosslinking agent, and (c) a radiation-sensitive acid generator is provided. The resist composition is used to form a patterned material layer in a substrate.
摘要:
The present invention relates to chemically amplified resists and resist systems wherein some of the polar functional groups of the aqueous base soluble polymer or copolymers are protected with a cyclic aliphatic ketal protecting group such as methoxycyclohexanyl. The resists and the resist systems of the present invention containing the new protecting group have improved shelf-life and vacuum stability as compared to the prior art resists. Thus, the resists of the present invention are highly useful in e-beam lithographic applications.
