摘要:
A surface cleaning apparatus comprising a chamber, and a thermal transfer device. The chamber is capable of holding a semiconductor structure therein. The thermal transfer device is connected to the chamber. The thermal transfer device has a surface disposed inside the chamber for contacting the semiconducting structure and controlling a temperature of the semiconductor structure in contact with the surface. The thermal transfer device has a thermal control module connected to the surface for heating and cooling the surface to thermally cycle the surface. The thermal control module effects a substantially immediate thermal response of the surface when thermally recycling the surface.
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.

The invention provides improved resist compositions and lithographic methods using the resist compositions of the invention. The resist compositions of the invention are acid-catalyzed resists which are characterized by the presence of an SiO-containing polymer. The invention also encompasses methods of forming patterned material layers (especially conductive, semiconductive, or magnetic material structures) using the combination of the SiO-containing resist and a halogen compound-containing pattern transfer etchant where the halogen is Cl, Br or I.

摘要:
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.
