摘要:
A method is provided for forming a microlithographic relief image having a width of less than one half micron in a bilayer resist composition. The resist composition comprises a single component, silicon-containing photoimageable layer and a polymeric underlayer having a high optical density and a refractive index similar to the refractive index of the overlaying resist. The method provides for the formation of a relief image in the top layer using an i-line (365 nm) or deep ultra violet (170 to 300 nm) light source, followed by O.sub.2 RIE transfer of the relief image into the polymeric underlayer.

The invention provides improved resist compositions and lithographic methods using the resist compositions of the invention. The resist compositions of the invention are acid-catalyzed resists which are characterized by the presence of an SiO-containing polymer. The invention also encompasses methods of forming patterned material layers (especially conductive, semiconductive, or magnetic material structures) using the combination of the SiO-containing resist and a halogen compound-containing pattern transfer etchant where the halogen is Cl, Br or I.
摘要:
An attenuating embedded phase shift photomask blank that produces a phase shift of the transmitted light is formed with an optically translucent film made of metal, silicon, nitrogen and oxygen. An etch stop layer is added to improve the etch selectivity of the phase shifting layer. A wide range of optical transmission (0.001% up to 15% at 157 nm) is obtained by this process.
