摘要:
The present invention provides a fine pattern-forming composition enabling to form a resist pattern having high dry etching resistance, and also provides a pattern formation method using that composition. This formation method hardly causes pipe blockages in the production process. The composition is used for miniaturizing a resist pattern by fattening in a process of forming a negative resist pattern from a chemically amplified resist composition, and comprises a polymer containing a repeating unit having a hydroxyaryl group and an organic solvent not dissolving the negative resist pattern. In the formation method, the fine pattern-forming composition and the resist composition are individually cast with the same coating apparatus, so as to prevent pipe blockages.

The present invention provides a composition for forming a top anti-reflection coating and also provides a pattern formation method employing that composition. The composition prevents pattern failures caused by light reflected in the resist layer in the exposure step, and it further avoids troubles caused by residues produced in the etching step. The composition contains a solvent and fine particles having a mean particle size of 1 to 100 nm. In the pattern formation method of the present invention, a top anti-reflection coating is formed from the composition. The composition and the method according to the present invention can be used to form a composite film composed of a resist layer and a top anti-reflection coating.

The present invention provides a resist substrate-treating solution for improving defects on a developed pattern surface, and also provides a resist substrate treatment method employing the treating solution. The resist substrate-treating solution comprises a solvent and a nitrogen-containing or oxygen-containing water-soluble polymer such as a polyamine, a polyol or a polyether. In the treatment method, a developed resist pattern is treated with the resist substrate-treating solution and then washed with pure water.

Disclosed is a composition for forming a top antireflective film, which comprises at least one fluorine-containing compound and a quaternary ammonium compound represented by the formula (1) [wherein at least one of R1, R2, R3, and R4 represents a hydroxyl group or an alkanol group, and the others independently represent a hydrogen or an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms; and X− represents a hydroxyl group, a halide ion or a sulfate ion], and optionally a water-soluble polymer, an acid, a surfactant and an aqueous solvent. The composition for forming a top antireflective film can exhibit the same levels of functions as those of conventional top antireflective film-forming compositions when applied in a smaller amount.

The present invention provides a composition for forming a top anti-reflection coating having a low refractive index, realizing a gradual swing curve and giving a small swing ratio. This composition comprises a solvent and an anthracene skeleton-containing polymer having a hydrophilic group. The composition forms an anti-reflection coating on a photoresist film, and can be used in a photolithographic process for forming a pattern by use of light having a wavelength of 160 to 260 nm.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method for miniaturizing a pattern without seriously increasing the production cost or impairing the production efficiency. This invention also provides a fine resist pattern and a resist substrate-treating solution used for forming the fine pattern. The pattern formation method comprises a treatment step. In the treatment step, a resist pattern after development is treated with a resist substrate-treating solution containing an amino group-containing, preferably, a tertiary polyamine-containing water-soluble polymer, so as to reduce the effective size of the resist pattern formed by the development. The present invention also relates to a resist pattern formed by that method, and further relates to a treating solution used in the method.

There is provided a method for forming a superfine pattern, which can simply produce a superfine pattern with high mass productivity.The method comprises the steps of forming a first convex pattern, on a film to be treated, forming a spacer formed of a silazane-containing resin composition on the side wall of the convexes constituting the first convex pattern, and forming a superfine pattern using as a mask the spacer or a resin layer disposed around the spacer. The spacer is formed by curing an evenly coated resin composition only in its part around the first convex pattern. According to this method for pattern formation, unlike the conventional method, a superfine pattern can be formed.
