摘要:
A class of lithographic photoresist combinations is disclosed which is suitable for use with visible light and does not require a post-exposure bake step. The disclosed photoresists are preferably chemical amplification photoresists and contain a photosensitizer having the structure of formula (I): where Ar1 and Ar2 are independently selected from monocyclic aryl and monocyclic heteroaryl, R1 and R2 may be the same or different, and have the structure —X—R3 where X is O or S and R3 is C1-C6 hydrocarbyl or heteroatom-containing C1-C6 hydrocarbyl, and R4 and R5 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and —X—R3, or, if ortho to each other, may be taken together to form a five- or six-membered aromatic ring, with the proviso that any heteroatom contained within Ar1, Ar2, or R3 is O or S. The use of the disclosed photoresists, particularly for the manufacture of holographic diffraction gratings, is also disclosed.

摘要:
A topcoat material for applying on top of a photoresist material is disclosed. The topcoat material comprises at least one solvent and a polymer which has a dissolution rate of at least 3000 Å/second in aqueous alkaline developer. The polymer contains a hexafluoroalcohol monomer unit comprising one of the following two structures: wherein n is an integer. The topcoat material may be used in lithography processes, wherein the topcoat material is applied on a photoresist layer. The topcoat material is preferably insoluble in water, and is therefore particularly useful in immersion lithography techniques using water as the imaging medium.

An improved photoimagable cationically polymerizable epoxy based coating material is provided, that is suitable for use on a variety of substrates including epoxy-glass laminate boards cured with dicyandiamide. The material includes an epoxy resin system consisting essentially of between about 10% and about 80% by weight of a polyol resin which is a condensation product of epichlorohydrin and bisphenol A having a molecular weight of between about 40,000 and 130,000; and between about 35% and 72% by weight of an epoxidized glycidyl ether of a brominated bisphenol A having a softening point of between about 60° C. and about 110° C. and a molecular weight of between about 600 and 2,500. Optionally, a third resin may be added to the resin system. To this resin system is added about 0.1 to about 15 parts by weight per 100 parts of resin of a cationic photoinitiator capable of initiating polymerization of said epoxidized resin system upon exposure to actinic radiation; the system being further characterized by having an absorbance of light in the 330 to 700 nm region of less than 0.1 for a 2.0 mil thick film. Optionally a photosensitizer such as perylene and its derivatives or anthracene and its derivatives may be added.

摘要:
Lithographic patterning methods involve the formation of a (one or more) metal oxide capping layer, which is rinsed with an aqueous alkaline solution as part of the method. The rinse solution does not damage the capping layer, but rather allows for lithographic processing without thinning the capping layer or introducing defects into it. Ammoniated water is a preferred rinse solution, which advantageously leaves behind no nonvolatile residue.
摘要:
The present invention provides methods for forming images in positive- or negative-tone chemically amplified photoresists. The methods of the present invention rely on the vertical up-diffusion of photoacid generated by patternwise imaging of an underlayer disposed on a substrate and overcoated with a polymer containing acid labile functionality. In accordance with the present invention, the vertical up-diffusion can be the sole mechanism for imaging formation or the methods of the present invention can be used in conjunction with conventional imaging processes.
