Abstract: The present disclosure provides forming nanostructures utilizing multiple patterning process with good profile control and feature transfer integrity. In one embodiment, a method for forming features on a substrate includes forming a mandrel layer on a substrate, conformally forming a spacer layer on the mandrel layer, wherein the spacer layer is a doped silicon material, and patterning the spacer layer. In another embodiment, a method for forming features on a substrate includes conformally forming a spacer layer on a mandrel layer on a substrate, wherein the spacer layer is a doped silicon material, selectively removing a portion of the spacer layer using a first gas mixture, and selectively removing the mandrel layer using a second gas mixture different from the first gas mixture.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides forming nanostructures utilizing multiple patterning process with good profile control and feature transfer integrity. In one embodiment, a method for forming features on a substrate includes forming a first mandrel layer on a material layer disposed on a substrate. A first spacer layer is conformally formed on sidewalls of the first mandrel layer, wherein the first spacer layer comprises a doped silicon material. The first mandrel layer is selectively removed while keeping the first spacer layer. A second spacer layer is conformally formed on sidewalls of the first spacer layer and selectively removing the first spacer layer while keeping the second spacer layer.
