    摘要: This invention relates to semiconductor devices, microelectronic devices, micro electro mechanical devices, microfluidic devices, and more particularly to an improved lithographic template including a repaired defect, a method of fabricating the improved lithographic template, a method for repairing defects present in the template, and a method for making semiconductor devices with the improved lithographic template. The lithographic template (10) is formed having a relief structure (26) and a repaired gap defect (36) within the relief structure (26). The template (10) is used in the fabrication of a semiconductor device (40) for affecting a pattern in device (40) by positioning the template (10) in close proximity to semiconductor device (40) having a radiation sensitive material formed thereon and applying a pressure to cause the radiation sensitive material to flow into the relief structure present on the template. Radiation is then applied through the template so as to further cure portions of the radiation sensitive material and further define the pattern in the radiation sensitive material. The template (10) is then removed to complete fabrication of semiconductor device (40).

    摘要: A method for making an x-ray mask having a low-stress absorber layer. A substrate is placed in an electroplating system and an electroplating solution is provided to the electroplating system. The electroplating solution has a gold sulfite based component and a thallium based component. The thallium based component is at a concentration of at least 20 milligrams per liter of electroplating solution. A gold containing absorber layer is electrodeposited onto the substrate. A high concentration of thallium produces an absorber layer insensitive to the brightener concentration in the electroplating solution and having a stress less than approximately 1.times.10.sup.8 dynes/cm.sup.2. In addition, the absorber has a small grain size, a low surface roughness, and a low defect density. Thus, the absorber layer is easier to inspect and, if required, to repair.

    摘要: A direct imprinting process for Step and Flash Imprint Lithography includes providing (40) a substrate (12); forming (44) an etch barrier layer (14) on the substrate; patterning (46) the etch barrier layer with a template (16) while curing with ultraviolet light through the template, resulting in a patterned etch barrier layer and a residual layer (20) on the substrate; and performing (48) an etch to substantially remove the residual layer. Optionally, a patterning layer (52) may be formed on the substrate (12) prior to forming the etch barrier layer (14). Additionally, an adhesive layer (13) may be applied (42) between the substrate (12) and the etch barrier layer (14).

    摘要: A process for the fabrication of an X-ray absorbing mask includes providing a silicon substrate (10) having a front surface (16) and a back surface (18). A membrane layer (12) is formed on the front surface (16). In one embodiment of the invention, an etch stop layer (14) and an X-ray absorbing layer (20) are sequentially formed over the membrane layer (12). In a preferred embodiment, the X-ray absorbing layer (20) is tantalum silicon nitride deposited by RF sputter deposition directly onto the layers overlying the silicon substrate (10). The structure is then annealed at a temperature sufficient to reduce the internal stress in the X-ray absorbing layer (20). Finally, the X-ray absorbing layer is patterned to form a masking pattern (30, 36) on the membrane layer (12).
