摘要: A method and system for cleaning collector optics in a light source chamber. In producing, for example, extreme ultraviolet light for lithography, debris such as tungsten can accumulate on optical components near a light source in the light source chamber.An etchant, such as a fluorine-containing gas, can be introduced into the light source chamber. The etchant is ionized via electrodes to generate free fluorine. The electrodes can be, for example, existing light source chamber components including the optical components. The fluorine can then react with the debris, forming gaseous compounds, which are pumped out of the light source chamber.

摘要: Electric fields may be advantageously used in various steps of photolithographic processes. For example, prior to the pre-exposure bake, photoresists that have been spun-on the wafer may be exposed to an electric field to orient aggregates or other components within the unexposed photoresist. By aligning these aggregates or other components with the electric field, line edge roughness may be reduced, for example in connection with 193 nanometer photoresist. Likewise, during exposure, electric fields may be applied through uniquely situated electrodes or using a radio frequency coil. In addition, electric fields may be applied at virtually any point in the photolithography process by depositing a conductive electrode, which is subsequently removed during development. Finally, electric fields may be applied during the developing process to improve line edge roughness.

摘要: An embodiment of the present invention includes a technique to provide a highly absorptive resist. A resist is formed using a highly absorbing material. The resist is thinned to a pre-determined thickness used as an imaging layer. The efficiency of a photoactive acid generator (PAG) is improved to capture secondary electrons produced by an ionizing radiation in the resist.
