    摘要: The present invention relates to resist compostions, in particular to photoresists that can be used in photolithography, especially in the fabrication of integrated circuits and derivative products. The resist compositions of the invention include an anti-scattering component which has a significant amount of empty space, and thus fewer scattering centers, such that radiation-scattering events are more limited during exposure. Such anti-scattering effects can lead to improved resolutions by reducing the usual proximity effects associated with lithographic techniques, allowing the production of smaller, higher resolution microchips. Furthermore, certain embodiments involve anti-scattering components which are directly linked to the resist components, which can improve the overall lithographic chemistry to provide benefits both in terms of resolution and resist sensitivity.

    摘要: In accordance with an embodiment, a filter membrane is sealed with a sealing material prior to using the filter membrane to filter process fluids. The sealing material is a fluorine-based polymer or a polymer with a cross-linking group. Once the sealing material has been placed in contact with the filter membrane, a cross-linking reaction may be initiated using either physical or chemical processes to cross-link the sealing material and to seal the filter membrane within the sealing material, thereby separating the filter membrane from the process fluids, reducing or eliminating leaching of the filter membrane into the process fluid.
