摘要:
A thermal acid generator of generating an acid on heating above 100° C. has formula: CF3CH(OCOR)CF2SO3−(R1)4N+ wherein R is alkyl or aryl, R1 is hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, oxoalkyl, aryl, aralkyl or aryloxoalkyl, or R1 may bond together to form a ring with N. The sulfonic acid generated possesses an ester site within molecule so that less bulky acyl groups to bulky groups may be incorporated therein. The thermal acid generator provides a sufficient acid strength, is less volatile due to a high molecular weight, and ensures film formation. Upon disposal of used resist liquid, it may be converted into low accumulative compounds.

摘要:
Although use of a nitrogen-containing compound as a basic compound component of a resist composition makes it possible to ease the T-top problem at an acid dissociation constant pKa falling within a range of 2 to 6, it is accompanied with the problem that the reaction, that is, acid diffusion upon use of a highly-reactive acid-labile group cannot be controlled. In order to overcome this problem, one or more basic compounds selected from those represented by the following formulas (I) to (III) and (1) to (4) are employed.

摘要:
A material comprising a novolac resin having a C6-C30 aromatic hydrocarbon group substituted with a sulfo group or an amine salt thereof is useful in forming a photoresist undercoat. The undercoat-forming material has an extinction coefficient sufficient to provide an antireflective effect at a thickness of at least 200 nm, and a high etching resistance as demonstrated by slow etching rates with CF4/CHF3 gas for substrate processing.
摘要:
A pattern is formed by coating a first positive resist composition comprising a base resin, a photoacid generator, and a base generator onto a substrate to form a first resist film, patternwise exposure, PEB, and development to form a first resist pattern, heating the first resist pattern for causing the base generator to generate a base for inactivating the pattern to acid, coating a second positive resist composition comprising a C3-C8 alcohol and an optional C6-C12 ether onto the first resist pattern-bearing substrate to form a second resist film, patternwise exposure, PEB, and development to form a second resist pattern.
摘要:
A polymer comprising recurring units of a sulfonium salt represented by formula (1) is provided as well as a chemically amplified resist composition comprising the same. R1 is H, F, methyl or trifluoromethyl, R2 to R4 are C1-C10 alkyl or alkoxy, R5 is C1-C30 alkyl or C6-C14 aryl, k, m and n are 0 to 3. The recurring units generate a sulfonic acid upon exposure to high-energy radiation so as to facilitate effective scission of acid labile groups in the resist composition. The resist composition exhibits excellent resolution and a pattern finish with minimal LER.
摘要:
A polymer comprising a high proportion of aromatic ring structure-containing units and containing an aromatic sulfonic acid sulfonium salt on a side chain is used to form a chemically amplified positive photoresist composition which is effective in forming a resist pattern having high etch resistance. The polymer overcomes the problems of dissolution in solvents for polymerization and purification and in resist solvents.

摘要:
The process forms a pattern by applying a resist composition onto a substrate to form a resist film, baking, exposure, post-exposure baking, and development. The resist composition comprises a polymer comprising recurring units having an acid labile group and substantially insoluble in alkaline developer, a PAG, a PBG capable of generating an amino group, a quencher for neutralizing the acid from PAG for inactivation, and an organic solvent. A total amount of amino groups from the quencher and PBG is greater than an amount of acid from PAG. An unexposed region and an over-exposed region are not dissolved in developer whereas only an intermediate exposure dose region is dissolved in developer. Resolution is doubled by splitting a single line into two through single exposure and development.
