    摘要: Methods to etch features in a substrate with a multi-layered double patterning mask. The multi-layered double patterning mask includes a carbonaceous mask layer, a first cap layer on the carbonaceous mask layer and a second cap layer on the first cap layer. After forming the multi-layered mask, a first lithographically defined pattern is etched into the second cap layer. A double pattern that is a composition of the first lithographically defined pattern etched in the second cap layer and a second lithographically defined pattern is then etched into the first cap layer and the carbonaceous mask layer. The double pattern formed in the carbonaceous mask layer is then transferred to a substrate layer and any portion of the multi-layered mask remaining is then removed.

    摘要: Methods for patterning films and their resulting structures. In an embodiment, an amorphous carbon mask is formed over a substrate, such as a damascene layer. A spacer layer is deposited over the amorphous carbon mask and the spacer layer is etched to form a spacer and to expose the amorphous carbon mask. The amorphous carbon mask is removed selectively to the spacer to expose the substrate layer. A gap fill layer is deposited around the spacer to cover the substrate layer but expose the spacer. The spacer is removed selectively to form a gap fill mask over the substrate. The pattern of the gap fill mask is transferred, in one implementation, into a damascene layer to remove at least a portion of an IMD and form an air gap.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for forming magnetic media substrates is provided. A patterned resist layer is formed on a substrate having a magnetically susceptible layer. A conformal protective layer is formed over the patterned resist layer to prevent degradation of the pattern during subsequent processing. The substrate is subjected to an energy treatment wherein energetic species penetrate portions of the patterned resist and conformal protective layer according to the pattern formed in the patterned resist, impacting the magnetically susceptible layer and modifying a magnetic property thereof. The patterned resist and conformal protective layers are then removed, leaving a magnetic substrate having a pattern of magnetic properties with a topography that is substantially unchanged.

    摘要: A method for fabricating a semiconductor mask is described. A semiconductor stack having a sacrificial mask and a spacer mask is first provided. The sacrificial mask is comprised of a series of lines and the spacer mask has spacer lines adjacent to the sidewalls of the series of lines. Next, the spacer mask is cropped. Finally, the sacrificial mask is removed to provide a cropped spacer mask. The cropped spacer mask doubles the frequency of the series of lines of the sacrificial mask.
