Abstract:
Disclosed are substrate drying methods, photoresist developing methods, and/or photolithography methods. The substrate drying method including providing a drying liquid on a substrate, increasing a pressure of the drying liquid to produce a supercritical fluid, and removing the supercritical fluid to dry the substrate may be provided.
Abstract:
A photolithographic rinse solution includes deionized water, and a surfactant, the surfactant including a cyclic amine group and at least one non-amine cyclic group joined to or fused with the cyclic amine group, wherein the cyclic amine group includes a ring having a carbon number of 4 to 6, and the non-amine cyclic group includes a ring having a carbon number of 5 to 8.
Abstract:
Provided herein are photoresist compositions and methods for fabricating semiconductor devices using the same. A photoresist composition may include an organometallic material, a fluorine-containing material, and an organic solvent.
Abstract:
In a method of manufacturing an integrated circuit device, a photoresist layer is formed by coating a photoresist composition on a substrate having a main surface and an edge portion surrounding the main surface. A portion of the photoresist layer is removed from the edge portion of the substrate. After the portion of the photoresist layer is removed, the substrate is processed using a main treatment composition including an organic solvent, acid, and water.
