摘要:
The present invention provides a process for using an amine contamination-protecting top-coating composition. Preferably, the amine contamination-protecting top-coating composition of the present invention comprises an amine contamination-protecting compound. Useful amine contamination-protecting compounds include amine derivatives; amino acid derivatives; amide derivatives; urethane derivatives; urea derivatives; salts thereof; and mixtures thereof. The amine contamination-protecting top-coating composition of the present invention reduces or eliminates problems such as T-topping due to a post exposure delay effect and/or difficulties in forming a fine pattern below 100 nm due to acid diffusion associated with conventional lithography processes involving a photoresist polymer containing an alicyclic main chain using a light source, such as KrF (248 nm), ArF (193 nm), F2 (157 nm), E-beam, ion beam and extremely ultraviolet (EUV).

摘要:
Photoresist compositions which are useful in a resist flow process are disclosed. A process for forming a contact hole pattern using the disclosed photoresist compositions is also disclosed. The disclosed photoresist resin includes a mixture of two or more polymers. Preferably, a mixture of a first copolymer and a second copolymer are cross-linked, and thus it prevents a contact hole from being collapsed due to over flow which is typically observed during a conventional resist flow process. In addition, the disclosed photoresist compositions allow formation of uniform sized patterns.

摘要:
The present invention provides a cross-linker monomer of formula 1, a photoresist polymer derived from a monomer comprising the same, and a photoresist composition comprising the photoresist polymer. The cross-linking unit of the photoresist polymer can be hydrolyzed (or degraded or broken) by an acid generated from a photoacid generator on the exposed region. It is believed that this acid degradation of the cross-linking unit increases the contrast ratio between the exposed region and the unexposed region. The photoresist composition of the present invention has improved pattern profile, enhanced adhesiveness, excellent resolution, sensitivity, durability and reproducibility. where A, B, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 and k are as defined herein.
