The present invention relates to a compound that is useful as an additive for improving post exposure delay stability in a photoresist composition, and a photoresist composition containing the same. In particular, it has been found that a compound of the formula: where A, R1 to R3 are defined herein, can efficiently prevent or reduce the phenomenon of a lack of pattern formation and T-topping resulting from post exposure delay (PED) by reducing influences of environmental amine compounds. PED is a disadvantage of alicyclic compounds used in the lithography process using light sources such as KrF, ArF, VUV, E-beam, ion beam and EUV.
摘要:
A photoresist polymer for a top-surface imaging process by silylation (TIPS), and a photoresist composition comprising the same. The protecting group of the present photoresist polymer is selectively protected in an exposed region, and thus a hydroxyl group is generated. The hydroxyl group reacts with the silylation agent to cause a silylation process. Accordingly, when the photoresist film is dry-developed, the exposed region only remains to form a negative pattern. In addition, the present photoresist composition has excellent adhesiveness to a substrate, thus preventing a pattern collapse in forming a minute pattern. As a result, the present photoresist composition is suitable for a lithography process using light sources such as ArF (193 nm), VUV (157 nm) and EUV (13 nm).
