摘要:
A positive resist composition comprises (A) a resin component which becomes soluble in an alkaline developer under the action of an acid and (B) an acid generator. The resin (A) is a polymer comprising recurring units containing a non-leaving hydroxyl group represented by at least one of formulae (1-1) to (1-3) wherein R1 is H, methyl or trifluoromethyl, X is a single bond or methylene, Y is hydroxyl or hydroxymethyl, and m is 0, 1 or 2. The composition is improved in resolution when processed by lithography.

A positive resist composition comprises (A) a resin component which becomes soluble in an alkaline developer under the action of an acid and (B) an acid generator. The resin (A) is a polymer comprising recurring units containing a non-leaving hydroxyl group represented by formula (1) wherein R1 is H, methyl or trifluoromethyl, Y is H or OH, at least one Y being OH, and the wavy line indicates an indefinite direction of the bond. The composition is improved in resolution when processed by lithography.
摘要:
A pattern is formed by applying a positive resist composition comprising a polymer comprising hydroxyalkylnaphthalene-bearing recurring units and acid labile group-bearing recurring units onto a substrate to form a resist film, heat treating and exposing the resist film to radiation, heat treating and developing the resist film with a developer to form a first pattern, and causing the resist film to crosslink and cure with the aid of heat or of acid and heat. A second pattern is then formed in the space area of the first pattern. The double patterning process reduces the pitch between patterns to one half.

Photoacid generators generate sulfonic acids of formula (1a) or (1b) upon exposure to high-energy radiation. R1—COOCH2CF2SO3−H+ (1a) R1—O—COOCH2CF2SO3−H+ (1b) R1 is a monovalent C20-C50 hydrocarbon group of steroid structure which may contain a heteroatom. The bulky steroid structure ensures adequate control of acid diffusion. The photoacid generators are compatible with resins and suited for use in chemically amplified resist compositions.

In the formula, X and Y each represents a group having a polymerizable functional group; Z represents a divalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 33 carbon atoms optionally containing a hetero atom; R1 represents a divalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 36 carbon atoms optionally containing a hetero atom; and R2 and R3 each represents a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms optionally containing a hetero atom or R2 and R3 may be bonded with each other to form a ring together with a sulfur atom in the formula. There can be provided a sulfonium salt usable as a resist composition providing high resolution and excellent in LER in photolithography using a high energy beam such as an ArF excimer laser, an EUV light and an electron beam as a light source, a polymer obtained from the sulfonium salt, a resist composition containing the polymer and a patterning process using the resist composition.
摘要:
A sulfonium salt has formula (1) wherein R1 is a monovalent hydrocarbon group except vinyl and isopropenyl, R2, R3, and R4 are alkyl, alkenyl, oxoalkyl, aryl, aralkyl or aryloxoalkyl or may bond together to form a ring with the sulfur atom, and n is 1 to 3. A chemically amplified resist composition comprising the sulfonium salt is capable of forming a fine feature pattern of good profile after development due to high resolution, improved focal latitude, and minimized line width variation and profile degradation upon prolonged PED.

摘要:
Photoacid generators generate sulfonic acids of formula (1a) or (1c) upon exposure to high-energy radiation. R1—COOCH(CF3)CF2SO3+H+ (1a) R1—O—COOCH(CF3)CF2SO3−H+ (1c) R1 is a C20-C50 hydrocarbon group having a steroid structure. The photoacid generators are compatible with resins and can control acid diffusion and are thus suited for use in chemically amplified resist compositions.
