摘要:
Inventive silsesquioxane polymers are provided, and resist compositions that contain such silsesquioxane polymers are provided in which at least a portion of the silsesquioxane polymer contains fluorinated moieties, and at least a portion of the silisesquioxane polymer contains pendant solubility inhibiting acid-labile moieties that have low activation energy for acid-catalyzed cleaving, and the presence of high optical density moieties are minimized or avoided. The inventive polymer also contains pendant polar moieties that promote alkaline solubility of the resist in aqueous alkaline solutions. The inventive polymers are particularly useful in positive resist compositions. The invention encompasses methods of using such resist compositions in forming a patterned structure on a substrate, and particularly multilayer (e.g. bilayer) photolithographic methods, which methods are capable of producing high resolution images at wavelengths such as 193 nm and 157 nm.
摘要:
Compositions suitable for forming planarizing underlayers for multilayer lithographic processes are characterized by the presence of (A) a polymer containing: (i) cyclic ether moieties, (ii) saturated polycyclic moieties, and (iii) aromatic moieties for compositions not requiring a separate crosslinker, or (B) a polymer containing: (i) saturated polycyclic moieties, and (ii) aromatic moieties for compositions requiring a separate crosslinker. The compositions provide outstanding optical, mechanical and etch selectivity properties. The compositions are especially useful in lithographic processes using radiation less than 200 nm in wavelength to configure underlying material layers.
摘要:
Improved resolution of lithographic patterns can be obtained using a double exposure process where a resist layer is subjected to a patternwise first exposure followed by a blanket second exposure. The resist composition preferably contains a chemically amplified resist which undergoes significant shrinkage on exposure to radiation, a chemically amplified resist which contains a photo-bleachable component, or a chemically amplified resist which contains a chemical-bleachable component.
