摘要:
A simple method for diminishing the trench width in a photoresist structure to below the resolution limit is provided. A photoresist structure is produced and treated with an agent then contains a bulging constituent that reacts with functional groups of the photoresist structure. The bulging constituent causes a volume increase of the photoresist structure. The extent of the volume increase of the photoresist structures is controllable by varying various parameters.
摘要:
A method for the photolithographic production of structures in the submicron range including the following steps:- a photoresist layer comprising a polymer containing carboxylic acid anhydride and carboxylic acid tert. butyl ester groups, a photoinitiator which releases an acid when exposed, and a suitable solvent is applied to a substrate;- the photoresist layer is dried;- the photoresist layer is exposed in an imagewise manner;- the exposed photoresist layer is subjected to temperature treatment;- the photoresist layer treated in this way is subjected to liquid silylation;- the silylated photoresist layer is dry-developed in an anisotropic oxygen plasma;where the temperature treatment is handled in such a way that the photoresist becomes hydrophilic in the exposed areas.
摘要:
A photoresist system that is easily structurable and, in particular, is suitable for the deep ultraviolet range is provided. An increased etching resistance to a halogen-containing plasma is produced in a lithographically generated photoresist structure by treatment with a reactant. The reactant comprises predominantly aromatic structures and includes reactive groups that are suitable for chemical reaction with further reactable groups of the photoresist. In an embodiment, the photoresist includes anhydride or epoxy groups that are suitable for structuring with deep ultraviolet light.

摘要:
High resolution resist structures with steep edges are obtained using standard equipment, with high sensitivity, particularly in the deep UV range. A photoresist layer consisting of a polymer having anhydride groups and blocked imide- or phenolic hydroxyl groups and of a photoactive component which forms a strong acid during irradiation is first deposited on a substrate, followed by irradiation with a patterned image. The irradiated photoresist layer is then treated with a water-based or a water-alcohol-based solution of a polyfunctional amino- or hydroxy-siloxane, and is etched in an oxygen-containing plasma.

A dry-developable, positively acting TSI resist contains the following components: a suitable solvent, a strong acid former as the photoactive component, and a base polymer in the form of a copolymer or terpolymer with maleic acid anhydride as a basic unit and glycidyl methacrylate and/or a styrene derivative as a further basic unit, and possibly an additive.

A process for producing structures in the submicron range is characterized by the following steps:a photoresist layer comprising a polymer constituent with functional groups, which are capable of reacting with primary or secondary amines, and N-blocked imide groups, a photoinitiator which releases an acid when irradiated and a suitable solvent is deposited on to a substrate;the photoresist layer is dried;the photoresist layer is exposed in an imagewise manner;the exposed photoresist layer is subjected to a temperature treatment;the photoresist layer treated in this manner is developed with an aqueous-alkaline or organic developing agent into a photoresist structure; andthe photoresist structure is treated with a chemical agent containing a primary or secondary amine; a defined dark field loss, is adjusted thereby during development in the range of between 20 and 100 nm.

To produce N-tertiary butoxycarbonyl-maleinimide, maleinimide is reacted in the presence of a heterocyclic nitrogen compound having at least one tertiary nitrogen atom (as a base) with a more or less equimolar quantity of di-tertiary butyl-dicarbonate in a suitable solvent at temperatures of up to about 80.degree. C.
