    摘要: A chemically amplified, positive resist composition comprising an organic solvent, a polymer having acid labile groups, a photoacid generator, a basic compound, and a compound containing at least two allyloxy groups is provided. The resist composition has a high sensitivity, resolution, dry etching resistance and process adaptability, and is improved in the slimming of a pattern film after development with an aqueous base solution. The resist composition is also applicable to the thermal flow process suited for forming a microsize contact hole pattern for the fabrication of VLSI.

    摘要: A pattern is formed by applying a first positive resist composition onto a substrate, heat treatment, exposure, heat treatment and development to form a first resist pattern; causing the first resist pattern to crosslink and cure by irradiation of high-energy radiation of up to 180 nm wavelength or EB; further applying a second positive resist composition onto the substrate, heat treatment, exposure, heat treatment and development to form a second resist pattern. The double patterning process reduces the pitch between patterns to one half.

    摘要: Double patterns are formed by coating a chemically amplified positive resist composition comprising an acid labile group-bearing resin and a photoacid generator and prebaking to form a resist film on a processable substrate, exposing the resist film to high-energy radiation, PEB, and developing with an alkaline developer to form a positive resist pattern, treating the positive resist pattern to be alkali soluble and solvent resistant, coating a negative resist composition and prebaking to form a reversal film, and exposing the reversal film to high-energy radiation, PEB, and developing with an alkaline developer to form a negative resist pattern. The last development step includes the reversal transfer step of dissolving away the positive resist pattern which has been converted to be soluble in developer.

    摘要: Provided is a contact hole forming method, wherein in a thermal flow step the contact hole size can be fixed after thermal flow even if the resist material lot changes, or, wherein at the same bake temperature the contracted size, namely the flow amount, can be fixed. More specifically, provided is a contact hole forming method comprising a step of coating a resist material onto a substrate, a step of heating the coated resist material, a step of exposing the heated resist material to light through a photo mask adapted for a contact hole pattern, a step of heating the exposed resist material, a step of forming the contact hole pattern subsequently by developing with a developing fluid and a step of thermal flow treatment for heating the obtained contact hole pattern, wherein the resist material comprises an organic compound which does not react with the other components within the resist material and does not change a resolution property, and wherein when the resist material lot is changed, an amount of the organic compound to be added is changed so as to keep the contact hole pattern identical before and after the lot change.
