Paper Abstract
Some initial EUVL patterning results for polycarbonate based non-chemically amplified resists are presented. Without
full optimization the developer a resolution of 60 nm line spaces could be obtained. With slight overexposure (1.4 × E0)
43.5 nm lines at a half pitch of 50 nm could be printed. At 2x E0 a 28.6 nm lines at a half pitch of 50 nm could be
obtained with a LER that was just above expected for mask roughness. Upon being irradiated with EUV photons, these
polymers undergo chain scission with the loss of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. The remaining photoproducts
appear to be non-volatile under standard EUV irradiation conditions, but do exhibit increased solubility in developer
compared to the unirradiated polymer. The sensitivity of the polymers to EUV light is related to their oxygen content
and ways to increase the sensitivity of the polymers to 10 mJ cm-2 is discussed.
