In exposure data generation processing, firstly, being generated based on the design data for indicating layer stereo structure 100 Multiple segmentation patterns (step S1: segmentation pattern generation process), multiple segmentation pattern is indicated will be more by each layer in depth direction Each pattern when layer stereochemical structure 100 is divided.Herein, since layer stereo structure 100 is the stereochemical structure constituted by 4 layers, because This generates 4 segmentation patterns in step sl.
In exposure data generation processing, next, carrying out the first processing to third processing to 4 segmentation patterns, 4 are generated A exposure data (step S2: data generation process).
In data generation process, firstly, carrying out the first processing.Specifically, in segmentation pattern generation process 4 obtained segmentation patterns, are set as exposure area 90 for the domain of the existence of layer stereo structure 100, by layer stereo structure 100 non-domain of the existence is set as non-exposed areas 91.Fig. 4~Fig. 7 is to indicate first according to the sequence of first layer~four layer Treated 4 segmentation pattern 11~14 figure.
As shown in Fig. 2, in first layer 111~third of not formed first recess portion recess portion 113 of layer stereo structure 100.It changes Yan Zhi, the whole region of first layer are the domain of the existence of layer stereo structure 100.Therefore, in segmentation pattern 11, by first layer Whole region be set as exposure area 90.
In addition, not formed second is recessed as shown in Fig. 2, the second layer in layer stereo structure 100 forms the first recess portion 111 Portion 112 and third recess portion 113.In other words, the region that the first recess portion 111 is formed in the whole region of the second layer is layer stereo knot The non-domain of the existence of structure 100, remaining area is the domain of the existence of layer stereo structure 100 in the whole region of the second layer.Therefore, In segmentation pattern 12, the above-mentioned non-domain of the existence in the whole region of the second layer is set as non-exposed areas 91, by second Above-mentioned domain of the existence in the whole region of layer is set as exposure area 90.
In addition, as shown in Fig. 2, the third layer in layer stereo structure 100 forms the first recess portion 111 and the second recess portion 112, Not formed third recess portion 113.In other words, the first recess portion 111 and the second recess portion 112 are formed in the whole region of third layer Region is the non-domain of the existence of layer stereo structure 100, and remaining area is layer stereo structure 100 in the whole region of third layer Domain of the existence.Therefore, in segmentation pattern 13, the above-mentioned non-domain of the existence in the whole region of third layer is set as non-exposure Above-mentioned domain of the existence in the whole region of third layer is set as exposure area 90 by light region 91.
In addition, as shown in Fig. 2, layer stereo structure 100 the 4th layer of first 111~third of recess portion recess portion 113 of formation. In other words, the region for first 111~third of recess portion recess portion 113 being formed in the 4th layer of whole region is layer stereo structure 100 non-domain of the existence, remaining area is the domain of the existence of layer stereo structure 100 in the 4th layer of whole region.Therefore, exist Divide in pattern 14, the above-mentioned non-domain of the existence in the 4th layer of whole region is set as non-exposed areas 91, by the 4th layer Whole region in above-mentioned domain of the existence be set as exposure area 90.Fig. 8 be from coming from the Section A-A of Fig. 2 this at first The figure of the segmentation pattern 11~14 at the time point after reason.
In data generation process, next, carrying out second processing.Specifically, first treated each exposure area The region that layer (layer of the side+Z) is set to exposure area 90 on it in 90 is changed to non-exposed areas 91.Fig. 9~Figure 12 It is the figure that 4 segmentation patterns 21~24 after second processing are indicated according to the sequence of first layer~four layer.In the following, in each segmentation In pattern, the region for including convex surface 110a in the side+Z is known as convex region 90a, the region for including concave surface 110b in the side+Z is claimed For concave region 90b.
By the second processing carried out to first layer, divides in the exposure area 90 of pattern 11 and dividing pattern 12~14 Also the region for setting exposure area 90 is changed to non-exposed areas 91, and segmentation pattern 11 is changed to segmentation pattern 21.According to For Fig. 2 and Fig. 9 it is found that the exposure area 90 in segmentation pattern 21 is concave region 90b, concave region 90b includes the in the side+Z The concave surface 110b of one recess portion 111.
In addition, dividing in the exposure area 90 of pattern 12 by the second processing carried out to the second layer and dividing pattern 13,14 regions for also setting exposure area 90 are changed to non-exposed areas 91, and segmentation pattern 12 is changed to segmentation pattern 22. According to fig. 2 with Figure 10 it is found that the exposure area 90 in segmentation pattern 22 is concave region 90b, concave region 90b is wrapped in the side+Z Include the concave surface 110b of the second recess portion 112.
In addition, dividing in the exposure area 90 of pattern 13 by the second processing carried out to third layer and dividing pattern 14 regions for also setting exposure area 90 are changed to non-exposed areas 91, and segmentation pattern 13 is changed to segmentation pattern 23.Root According to Fig. 2 and Figure 11 it is found that the exposure area 90 in segmentation pattern 23 is concave region 90b, concave region 90b includes in the side+Z The concave surface 110b's of third recess portion 113.
In addition, due in layer stereo structure 100 the 4th layer be top layer, even if to the 4th layer carry out second Processing, will not change exposure area 90 and non-exposed areas 91.Therefore, segmentation pattern 24 is same as segmentation pattern 14 Pattern.According to fig. 2 with Figure 12 it is found that the exposure area 90 in segmentation pattern 24 is convex region 90a, convex region 90a exists The side+Z includes convex surface 110a.
As described above, in the segmentation pattern 21~24 after second processing, by convex region 90a and concave surface Region 90b is set as exposure area 90.Figure 13 is the segmentation at the time point from the Section A-A of Fig. 2 after above-mentioned second processing The figure of pattern 21~24.
In data generation process, next, carrying out third processing.Specifically, each non-exposed area after second processing The region being located at around concave region 90b in domain 91 is changed to exposure area 90.Figure 14~Figure 17 be according to first layer~ 4th layer of sequence indicates third treated the figure of 4 segmentation patterns 31~34.In the following, concave surface will be located in each segmentation pattern Region around 110b is known as concave surface peripheral region 90c.
By the third processing carried out to first layer, divides and be located at concave region 90b in the non-exposed areas 91 of pattern 21 Around concave surface peripheral region 90c be changed to exposure area 90, segmentation pattern 21 is changed to segmentation pattern 31.According to Figure 14 is it is found that peripheral region 90c in concave surface is the rectangular ring region using Y-direction as long side.
In addition, being handled by the third carried out to the second layer, divides and be located at concave regions in the non-exposed areas 91 of pattern 22 Concave surface peripheral region 90c around the 90b of domain is changed to exposure area 90, and segmentation pattern 22 is changed to segmentation pattern 32. As can be seen from FIG. 15, peripheral region 90c in concave surface is the L word annular section using Y-direction as long side.
In addition, being handled by the third carried out to third layer, divides and be located at concave regions in the non-exposed areas 91 of pattern 23 Concave surface peripheral region 90c around the 90b of domain is changed to exposure area 90, and segmentation pattern 23 is changed to segmentation pattern 33. As can be seen from FIG. 16, peripheral region 90c in concave surface is circular region.
In addition, the segmentation pattern 24 due to the 4th layer does not have concave region 90b, even if carrying out the to the 4th layer Three processing, will not change exposure area 90 and non-exposed areas 91.Therefore, segmentation pattern 34 is and segmentation pattern 14,24 Same pattern.
As described above, third treated segmentation pattern 31~34 in, by convex region 90a, concave regions Domain 90b and concave surface peripheral region 90c are set as exposure area 90.Figure 18 is the above-mentioned third of Section A-A view from Fig. 2 The figure of the segmentation pattern 31~34 at treated time point.
So, the data of the 4 segmentation patterns 31~34 generated in the first processing~third processing become to multilayer Stereochemical structure 100 carries out 4 exposure datas that exposure device is supplied to when manufacture processing.
In the present embodiment, the registration accuracy of exposure device is known in advance before carrying out third processing, around concave surface The width W40 of region 90c is set as 2 times of the length of registration accuracy.Herein, registration accuracy, which refers to, is exposed resist layer When exposure position from benchmark exposure position deviate when offset upper limit value, be and Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 2009-224523 bulletin In overlapping accuracy, the identical concept of registration accuracy in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 2014-103343 bulletin.So, in aftermentioned < The effect of the width W40 of setting concave surface peripheral region 90c is described in detail in positional shift > in 1.4 exposure process.
The manufacture of 1.3 layer stereo structure 100 of < handles >
The manufacture system for manufacturing layer stereo structure 100 is following system: to the shape for repeating resist layer in each layer At and to the resist layer exposure and the resist layer stack that generates is developed, there is male and fomale(M&F) in the side+Z to manufacture 110 layer stereo structure 100.
The manufacture system includes exposure data generating means 7;Apparatus for coating is coated with resist and forms resist layer; Heating device heats resist layer;Exposure device exposes resist layer;Developing apparatus is removed by developer solution The resist at the position for going exposure device not expose;And surface processing device, carry out surface processing.Manufacture system both may be used It, can also be by configuring above-mentioned each device with straight column mode come structure to be constituted by configuring above-mentioned each device in a manner of group At.
Figure 19~Figure 24 is the figure from the manufacturing process of the Section A-A view layer stereo structure 100 of Fig. 2.In the following, The manufacture processing of layer stereo structure 100 when illustrating from the Section A-A view of Fig. 2.
In manufacture processing, firstly, negative resist is coated on the master of the side (side+Z) of substrate 50 by apparatus for coating Face forms the resist layer 51 (step S3: painting process) of first layer on substrate 50.It should be noted that the resist pair The exposure light used in exposure device has permeability.
Next, heating device heats resist layer 51, make the solvent in resist layer 51 evaporate (step S4: Prebake process).
Next, exposure device is based on first layer in 4 exposure datas for generating processing generation by above-mentioned exposure data Exposure data, (step S5: exposure process) is exposed to resist layer 51.Segmentation pattern 31 is equivalent in resist layer 51 The position of exposure area 90 be exposed, become the insoluble region 92 of development.In addition, being equivalent to segmentation pattern 31 in resist layer 51 The position of non-exposed areas 91 be not exposed, the state in the solvable region 93 that keeps developing.Exposure device is for example by directly retouching Device composition is drawn, which uses up by irradiationing exposure while scan exposure is used up to resist layer come continuous Ground carries out partial exposure.In this case, it executes in step s 5 and directly describes process, do not need to prepare and each exposure data Corresponding mask, therefore preferably.
Next, heating device heats resist layer 51, make the solvent of resist layer 51 evaporate (step S6: after Bake process).Figure 19 is the figure for indicating the manufacturing process of layer stereo structure 100 at the time point.
When executing step S3~S6 to resist layer 51, determine with the presence or absence of not formed resist layer (step S7).Herein, since as not formed resist layer, there are resist layers 52~54, therefore in step S7 branch For "Yes".
Next, the resist layer 52 to the second layer on substrate 50 executes step S3~S6.As a result, resist layer The position that the exposure area 90 of segmentation pattern 32 is equivalent in 52 is exposed, and becomes the insoluble region 92 of development.As described above, this reality Applying resist used in mode has permeability to exposure light.Therefore, for the against corrosion of the lower layer as resist layer 52 For oxidant layer 51, the position for being equivalent to the exposure area 90 of segmentation pattern 32 is exposed, and becomes the insoluble region 92 of development.In addition, The position that the non-exposed areas 91 of segmentation pattern 32 is equivalent in resist layer 52 is not exposed, and keeps solvable region 93 of developing State.Then, resist layer 52 is heated, evaporates the solvent in resist layer 52.Figure 20 is to indicate the time point Layer stereo structure 100 manufacturing process figure.
When executing step S3~S6 to resist layer 52, determine with the presence or absence of not formed resist layer (step S7).Herein, since as not formed resist layer, there are resist layers 53,54, therefore in step S7 branch For "Yes".
Resist layer 53 and the 4th layer of resist layer 54 to the third layer on substrate 50 similarly execute step S3 ~S6.Figure 21 is the manufacturing process for indicating to execute resist layer 53 the layer stereo structure 100 at the time point of step S3~S6 Figure.Figure 22 is the manufacturing process for indicating to execute resist layer 54 the layer stereo structure 100 at the time point of step S3~S6 Figure.
So, according to the sequence from the side-Z to the side+Z, step S3~S6 is executed to each layer, to generate resist layer Stack 57.Then, (step S7) is determined to the presence or absence of not formed resist layer.Herein, due to whole against corrosion Oxidant layer 51~54 has been formed, therefore branches into "No" in step S7.
Developing apparatus is the resist that solvable region 93 of developing in resist layer stack 57 is removed by developer solution, is obtained more Layer stereochemical structure 100 (step S8: developing procedure).Layer stereo structure 100 is obtained at the time point, by manufacture is handled Continue step S9, S10, to improve the intensity of layer stereo structure 100.
Next, heating device heats layer stereo structure 100, make solvent in layer stereo structure 100, It is attached to the developer solution evaporation (step S9: baking process firmly) of layer stereo structure 100.Figure 23 is the multilayer for indicating the time point The figure of the manufacturing process of stereochemical structure 100.It should be noted that in Fig. 2, diagram becomes complicated in order to prevent, depict into The layer stereo structure 100 at the time point before the surface manufacturing procedure of row next step is (that is, layer stereo corresponding with Figure 23 Structure 100).
Next, surface processing device processes the surface of the side+Z of layer stereo structure 100, covered with protective film 55 Cover the surface (step S10: surface manufacturing procedure).As protective film 55, the film such as plated film or diamond-film-like is formed.Figure 24 be the figure by the layer stereo structure 100 of step S1~S10 manufacture.
As described above, in the manufacturing method of present embodiment, repeat resist layer in each layer The resist layer stack 57 for being formed and carrying out the exposure of selectivity to the resist layer and generating is developed, to manufacture multilayer Stereochemical structure 100.Therefore, each recess portion in male and fomale(M&F) 110 can be adjusted separately according to each exposing patterns to each resist layer Depth.
Layer stereo structure 100 is used as the intaglio plate in such as printing treatment.It is recessed layer stereo structure 100 to be used as In the case where version, the relatively wide recess portion of width forms relatively shallow in preferably multiple recess portions, and width is opposite in the multiple recess portion Narrow recess portion forms relatively deep.Whens being filled into the ink of each recess portion as a result, and being transferred in transfer roll etc., it is able to suppress each recess portion In ink transfer ratio deviation.Herein, the width of recess portion refers to short from the top view from upper surface when above-mentioned recess portion The width in direction.As shown in Fig. 2, the third of relatively wide width W30 is recessed in the layer stereo structure 100 of present embodiment Portion 113 forms relatively shallow, and the second recess portion 112 of intermediate width W20 is intermediate depth, and the first of relatively narrow width W10 is recessed Portion 111 forms relatively deep.Therefore, from the above point of view, it is suppressed that deviation when transfer, thus it is preferred that.
In addition, as the layer stereo structure 100 of present embodiment, if the resist layer 51 of first layer is entire Face is insoluble region 92 of developing, then the adaptation between substrate 50 and resist layer 51~54 improves, thus it is preferred that.
In addition, as in the present embodiment, the identical mode of the ingredient for the resist that apparatus for coating is coated in layers In, the different mode of the ingredient of resist in layers from the technology recorded such as Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 2012-208350 bulletin It compares, the manufacture processing of layer stereo structure 100 becomes easy, and can also inhibit manufacturing cost.
In addition, as in the present embodiment, side of the exposure device to the exposure light of resist layer irradiation Same Wavelength In formula, with the technology recorded such as Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 2012-208350 bulletin each resist layer is irradiated according to resist Ingredient is different and the mode for the exposure light that wavelength is different is compared, and the manufacture processing of layer stereo structure 100 becomes easy, and also can Inhibit manufacturing cost.
Positional shift > in 1.4 exposure process of <
In the manufacture processing > of above-mentioned 1.3 layer stereo structure 100 of <, illustrate in resist layer without positional shift Ideal exposure position (benchmark exposure position) the case where being exposed process.However, in the case where executing exposure process, In the face XY, exposure position is usually deviated in the range of registration accuracy.
It is assumed below that the case where generating positional shift in exposure process, at the manufacture that illustrates present embodiment and comparative example The difference of reason.Here, it is assumed that following situations: in the resist layer 51 of benchmark exposure position exposure first layer, being exposed from benchmark Position offset by registration accuracy to -X direction in the case where expose the second layer resist layer 52, from benchmark exposure position to+ X-direction exposes the resist layer 53 of third layer in the case where offseting by registration accuracy, inclined from benchmark exposure position to -X direction The 4th layer of resist layer 54 is exposed in the case where having moved registration accuracy.
Based on above-mentioned it is assumed that explanation is handled by comparing the manufacture of example come the case where manufacturing layer stereo structure 100A.? In the comparative example, using the data of segmentation pattern 11~14 shown in Fig. 8 as exposure data, exposure process is executed.Figure 25~figure 29 be the figure from the manufacturing process of the Section A-A view layer stereo structure 100A of Fig. 2.
Firstly, the resist layer 51A to the first layer on substrate 50 executes step S3~S6.As a result, resist layer The position that the exposure area 90 of segmentation pattern 11 is equivalent in 51A is exposed, and becomes the insoluble region 92 of development.Then, to against corrosion Oxidant layer 51A is heated, and the solvent in resist layer 51A is evaporated.Figure 25 is the layer stereo structure for indicating the time point The figure of the manufacturing process of 100A.
When executing step S3~S6 to resist layer 51A, determine with the presence or absence of not formed resist layer (step S7).Herein, since as not formed resist layer, there are resist layer 52A~54A, therefore at step S7 points Branch is "Yes".
Step S3~S6 is similarly executed to resist layer 52A~54A of the second layer on substrate 50~four layer.It needs It is noted that in each step S5, as described above, in the feelings for offseting by registration accuracy from benchmark exposure position to ± X-direction Exposure process is executed under condition.Figure 26 is the layer stereo structure for indicating to execute resist layer 52A the time point of step S3~S6 The figure of 100 manufacturing process.Figure 27 is the layer stereo knot for indicating to execute resist layer 53A the time point of step S3~S6 The figure of the manufacturing process of structure 100.Figure 28 is the layer stereo knot for indicating to execute resist layer 54A the time point of step S3~S6 The figure of the manufacturing process of structure 100.
So, step S3~S6 is executed to each layer according to the sequence from the side-Z to the side+Z, to generate resist stacking Body 57A (Figure 28).Then, (step S7) is determined to the presence or absence of not formed resist layer.Herein, due to whole Resist layer 51A~54A has been formed, therefore branches into "No" in step S7.
Developing apparatus removes the resist in solvable region 93 of developing in resist layer stack 57A by developer solution, obtains more Layer stereochemical structure 100A (step S8: developing procedure).Next, heating device heats layer stereo structure 100A, make Solvent in layer stereo structure 100, developer solution evaporation (the step S9: baking work firmly for being attached to layer stereo structure 100A Sequence).Figure 29 is the figure for indicating the manufacturing process of layer stereo structure 100A at the time point.
The layer stereo structure 100A so manufactured is in male and fomale(M&F) 110A by the first recess portion 111A~third recess portion 113A structure At.However, in the shape of male and fomale(M&F) 110A and layer stereo structure 100 when executing ideal exposure process without positional shift Male and fomale(M&F) 110 shape it is different.This is because the positional shift of exposure position leads to the development in resist layer stack 57A The shape and the shape of male and fomale(M&F) 110 in solvable region 93 be not corresponding.So, in the manufacturing method of comparative example, in exposure position In the case where setting generation offset, the layer stereo structure with desired male and fomale(M&F) 110 cannot be manufactured.
Next, based on above-mentioned it is assumed that explanation manufactures layer stereo structure by the manufacture processing of present embodiment The case where 100B.In the following, executing exposure process using the data for dividing pattern 31~34 shown in Figure 18 as exposure data.Figure 30~Figure 35 is the figure from the manufacturing process of the Section A-A view layer stereo structure 100B of Fig. 2.
Firstly, the resist layer 51B to the first layer on substrate 50 executes step S3~S6.As a result, resist layer The position that the exposure area 90 of segmentation pattern 31 is equivalent in 51B is exposed, and becomes the insoluble region 92 of development.In addition, resist The position that the non-exposed areas 91 of segmentation pattern 31 is equivalent in layer 51B is not exposed, and keeps the shape in the solvable region 93 of development State.Then, resist layer 51B is heated, evaporates the solvent in resist layer 51B.Figure 30 indicates the time point The figure of the manufacturing process of layer stereo structure 100B.
After executing step S3~S6 to resist layer 51B, (step is determined to whether there is not formed resist layer Rapid S7).Herein, since as not formed resist layer, there are resist layer 52B~54B, therefore in step S7 branch For "Yes".
Step S3~S6 is similarly executed to resist layer 52B~54B of the second layer on substrate 50~four layer. It should be noted that in each step S5, as described above, offseting by registration accuracy from benchmark exposure position to ± X-direction In the case of, execute exposure process.Figure 31 is the layer stereo knot for indicating to execute resist layer 52B the time point of step S3~S6 The figure of the manufacturing process of structure 100B.Figure 32 indicates the layer stereo knot that the time point of step S3~S6 is executed to resist layer 53B The figure of the manufacturing process of structure 100B.Figure 33 is the layer stereo for indicating to execute resist layer 54B the time point of step S3~S6 The figure of the manufacturing process of structure 100B.
So, step S3~S6 is executed to each layer according to the sequence from the side-Z to the side+Z, to generate resist stacking Body 57B (Figure 33).Then, (step S7) is determined to the presence or absence of not formed resist layer.Herein, due to whole Resist layer 51B~54B has been formed, therefore branches into "No" in step S7.
Developing apparatus removes the resist in solvable region 93 of developing in resist layer stack 57B by developer solution, obtains more Layer stereochemical structure 100B (step S8: developing procedure).Next, heating device heats layer stereo structure 100B, make Solvent in layer stereo structure 100B, developer solution evaporation (the step S9: baking work firmly for being attached to layer stereo structure 100B Sequence).Figure 34 is the figure for indicating the manufacturing process of layer stereo structure 100B at the time point.
However the position of the male and fomale(M&F) 110B of the layer stereo structure 100B manufactured, with the 4th as top layer Positional shift occurs for the exposure position of layer, and deviates from ideal position (position of male and fomale(M&F) 110).But according to fig. 23 and figure 34 it is found that the shape of the male and fomale(M&F) 110B of layer stereo structure 100B is consistent with the shape of ideal male and fomale(M&F) 110.
In the present embodiment, since the exposure area of exposure data 90 does not include except convex region 90a, concave region Other regions other than 90b and concave surface peripheral region 90c, therefore even if to two layers of resist in the case where certain two layers offset When layer is exposed, it can also inhibit to generate unexpected step difference.For example, in a comparative example, since exposure area 90 includes Above-mentioned other regions, therefore deviated relative to the resist layer 53A of third layer to -X direction in the 4th layer of resist layer 54A In the case where when being exposed, the second recess portion 112A produces unexpected step difference (Figure 27~Figure 29).However, in this embodiment party In formula, since exposure area 90 is only made of convex region 90a, concave region 90b and concave surface peripheral region 90c, inhibit The quantity of exposure area.It thereby inhibits in the insoluble region 92 of the development area insoluble with the development formed on upper layer that lower layer is formed Unexpected step difference is generated between domain 92.In particular, as in the present embodiment, if the width of concave surface peripheral region 90c Degree W40 is 2 times of length of registration accuracy, though then in the case where deviating maximum limit in the opposite direction certain two layers to this two (that is, even if being exposed in the case where deviating registration accuracy in the opposite direction to two layers when layer resist layer is exposed When), it can also prevent the shape of each recess portion from changing.Therefore, in the manufacturing method of present embodiment, it is suppressed that because of exposure position The change in shape of male and fomale(M&F) 110 caused by positional shift.
Finally, surface processing device processes the surface of the side+Z of layer stereo structure 100B, covered with protective film 55B Cover the surface (step S10: surface manufacturing procedure).As protective film 55B, the film such as plated film or diamond-film-like is formed. Figure 35 is the figure indicated through step S1~S10 layer stereo structure 100B manufactured.
