    Abstract: A system and method for photoresists is provided. In an embodiment a cross-linking or coupling reagent is included within a photoresist composition. The cross-linking or coupling reagent will react with the polymer resin within the photoresist composition to cross-link or couple the polymers together, resulting in a polymer with a larger molecular weight. This larger molecular weight will cause the dissolution rate of the photoresist to decrease, leading to a better depth of focus for the line.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of forming a coating, comprising applying a first coating to a substrate having a plurality of topographical features, planarizing a top surface of the first coating, and drying the coating after planarizing the top surface of the first coating. The first coating may be applied over the plurality of topographical features, and substantially liquid during application. The first coating may optionally be a conformal coating over topographical features of the substrate. The conformal coating may be dried prior to planarizing the top surface of the first coating and a solvent applied to the conformal coating, with the top surface of the conformal coating being substantially planar after application of the solvent. The coating may have a planar surface prior to the drying the first coating and the first coating may be dried without substantial spin-drying by modifying an environment of the first coating.

    Abstract: Methods and materials for making a semiconductor device are described. The method includes forming a middle layer (ML) of a patterning stack (e.g., a tri-layer patterning stack such as a tri-layer resist) and forming a photoresist layer directly on the middle layer. The middle layer includes an additive component having a photo base generator (PBG). The substrate including the photoresist layer and the middle layer is then exposed to a radiation. A covalent bond between the ML and the photoresist layer may be formed.
