摘要:
Proton sponge, berberine, and cetyltrimethyl ammonium hydroxide base compounds are used as additives to chemically amplified photoresists based on modified polyhydroxystyrene (PHS). The base additives scavenge free acids from the photoresist in order to preserve the acid labile moieties on the modified PHS polymer. The base additives are well suited to industrial processing conditions, do not react with the photoacid compounds in the photoresist composition to form byproducts which would hinder photoresist performance, and extend the shelf-life of the photoresist composition. In addition, the proton sponge and berberine base additives have a different absorption spectra than the modified PHS polymer, therefore, the quantity of base additive within the photoresist can be easily assayed and controlled.

摘要:
This invention relates to a process for generating a organically soluble partially cross-linked acid labile polymer according to the present invention comprises the steps of providing a polymer with one or more monomer units, wherein at least one of the monomer units contain one or more pendant COOH or hydroxyl groups; and reacting said polymer with a polyvinyl ether in the presence of a acid catalyst to form links between at least two polymer chains. The resulting polymer can be used as a component in a photoresist formulation.
