Paper Abstract
Roughness control is a key technical issue in extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography. It applies to both line and space
(L/S) and contact hole (C/H) structures. Recently, SEMATECH and Tokyo Electron Limited (TEL) developed
several track-based techniques, including developer optimization, FIRM™ (Finishing up by Improved Rinse
Material), and smoothing to reduce structural roughness. The combination of these techniques improved line width
roughness (LWR) about 25% from the 2011 baseline of 32 nm L/S. C/H structures were also tested with the
combination process. This paper describes our latest L/S and C/H roughness performance post-lithography and postetch.
A feasibility study of negative tone develop (NTD) resists for EUV is also included.
