    摘要: A silica sol dispersed in a nonaqueous solvent, especially a hydrophobic solvent, to improve the compatibility with organic materials, and method for producing the same; the silica sol containing alkali, in which at least two types of alkoxy groups of Si—OR0 and Si—OR1 (provided that R0 is a C1-4 alkyl group, R1 is a C2-10 organic group which arbitrarily has an oxygen atom, and R0 and R1 are not the same chemical group) are present on or near a surface of silane-coated silica particles, the silica particles having a molar ratio (Si—OR1)/(Si—OR0) of 0.17 to 10 are used as dispersoids, and at least one hydrophobic organic solvent selected from the group consisting of ketones, ethers, esters, amides, and hydrocarbons is used as a dispersion medium.

    摘要: A semiconductor device manufacturing process, forming a multilayer structure of a metal oxide (e.g., copper oxide) and a resist underlayer film on a stepped metal substrate reduces exposure reflectance from the substrate, thereby reducing standing waves of the resist pattern (defects caused by reflection) and provides a favorable rectangular resist pattern on the substrate. A pattern-equipped substrate manufacturing method includes: a step for performing an oxidation treatment on a substrate containing metal on a surface thereof to form a metal oxide film on the substrate surface; a step for applying a resist on the metal oxide film and conducting baking to form a resist film; a step for exposing a semiconductor substrate covered by the metal oxide film and the resist; and a step for developing the exposed resist film and conducting patterning.

    摘要: An object is to provide a cage silicate that can be industrially safely and simply produced by using an alkali silicate solution that does not generate alcohol as a Si raw material and using non-toxic quaternary ammonium, and a method for producing the same. The problem is solved by the following cage silicate:
    A cage silicate consisting of anion component 1 represented by following formula (1), anion component 2 which is a mineral acid ion, cation component 1 represented by following formula (2), and cation component 2 which is an alkali ion, in which, to the mole number in terms of SiO2, a ratio of the mole number of water, (H2O/SiO2), is 0.7 to 30, a ratio of the mole number of alkali ions, (alkali ions/SiO2), is 1.0×10−7 to 1.0−10−2, and a ratio of the mole number of the mineral acid ions, (mineral acid ions/SiO2), is 1.0×10−7 to 1.0×10−3.




    In formula (2), R represents an alkyl group having 2 to 20 carbon atoms.

    摘要: A composition for forming a resist underlayer film that enables the formation of a resist pattern; and resist pattern production and semiconductor device manufacturing methods, which use the composition for forming a resist underlayer film. The composition for forming a resist underlayer film has a basic organic group substituted with a protecting group in the repeating unit structure of a polymer containing a heterocycle, or at a terminal thereof, and further includes a solvent. The polymer may include a heterocycle containing an alkenyl group having 2-10 carbon atoms. The polymer may have, in a main chain thereof, at least one structural unit represented by Formula (3). (In Formula (3), A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, and A6 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, a methyl group, or an ethyl group, and Q1 represents a divalent organic group including a heterocycle, and m1 and m2 each independently represent 0 or 1.)
