    摘要: The present invention provides a method for manufacturing semiconductor devices, a method for manufacturing an integrated circuit, and a method for improving a drive current for semiconductor devices on a wafer-by-wafer basis. The method for manufacturing semiconductor devices, among other elements, includes patterning gate structures on a substrate (220), each of the gate structures having a profile associated therewith, and obtaining information representative of the profiles of the gate structures (240). In accordance with the present invention the information may then be fed forward to alter a manufacturing parameter associated with a drive current of the semiconductor devices (250).

    摘要: A process for forming a polysilicon line having linewidths below 0.23 &mgr;m. The layer of polysilicon (20) is deposited over a semiconductor body (10). A layer of bottom anti-reflective coating (BARC) (30) is deposited over the polysilicon layer (20). A resist pattern (40) is formed over the BARC layer (30) using conventional lithography (e.g., deep UV lithography). The BARC layer (30) is etched with an etch chemistry of HBr/O2 using the resist pattern (40) until the endpoint is detected. The BARC layer (30) and resist pattern (40) are then overetched using the same etch chemistry having a selectivity of approximately one-to-one between the BARC and resist. The overetch is a timed etch to control the linewidth reduction in the resist/BARC pattern. The minimum dimension of the pattern (50) is reduced to below the practical resolution limit of the lithography tool. Finally, the polysilicon layer (20) is etched using the reduced width pattern (50).

    摘要: A method for determining the anti-reflective coating (or bottom anti-reflective coating) over-etch time adjust with real-time process feedback is presented. The critical dimension CDresist of the patterned photoresist is measured and a first wafer with median values chosen (101) from a lot. A first time t* is found (102) and used to form the desired structure. Using the measured critical dimension of the formed structure on the first wafer a second time tlot is found (104). Finally, an over-etch time t(x) is found and used to etch the remaining wafers in the lot (106).
