Submicron Patterning in Electron Beam Lithography using Trilayer Resist

삼층감광막구조를 이용한 미세패턴의 전자빔 묘화

The PMMA/Ge/AZ trilayer resist decreased proximity effect of backscattering electrons and corrected pattern distoration in order to from deep submicron patterns. In the experiment, the prosiemity effect is decreased by 11% and 30% for the case of 0.9$\mu$m and 1.7$\mu$m AZ, respectively, in trilayer resist compared to monolyer resist. also, the EID of 240$\AA$ Ge film is smaller than that of 500$\AA$ film by 365. 0.1$\mu$m line/space was formed in the 2000$\AA$ PMMA layer with the condition of dose 330${\mu}C/cm^{2}$ and of 150sec of develop time in MIBK : IPA (1:3) developer.
