Description

Polymer resin and preparation method thereof, method for improving cracking of electron beam photoresist, electron beam photoresist and preparation and use thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of electron beam photoresist, in particular to polymer resin and a preparation method thereof, a method for improving cracking of electron beam photoresist, the electron beam photoresist and preparation and use thereof.
Background
Electron-beam Lithography (EBL) is considered as one of the most promising Lithography technologies below 22 nm node in terms of its high resolution and stable performance as a next generation Lithography technology, and the progress of the Lithography technology is often indispensible from the development of Lithography materials. In recent years, electron beams have placed higher demands on lithographic materials as nano-scale lithography techniques. The electron beam photoresist is a type of photoresist material coated on the surface of a substrate to realize pattern transfer through electron beam exposure, and can be classified into positive photoresist and negative photoresist according to whether cross-linking or chemical bond breakage occurs before and after polymer irradiation.
After electron beam exposure, the polymer of the photoresist is broken by chemical bonds, and broken polymer fragments are easy to dissolve in a developing solution, so that the photoresist is positive photoresist. On the contrary, when the photoresist is exposed, the small molecules are crosslinked and polymerized into macromolecules, and the exposed photoresist is difficult to dissolve in a developing solution, so that the photoresist is negative photoresist. Alpha-methyl chloroacrylate and alpha-methylstyrene copolymers and polymethyl methacrylate are two polymer resins commonly used in electron beam photoresists. The former photoresist has the characteristics of high resolution, high sensitivity and etching resistance, but the cracking problem often occurs. US5087551a solves the cracking problem of electron beam photoresists by optimizing the photoresist solvent, CN1815369a optimizing the coating process. The method solves the cracking problem of the electron beam photoresist from the polymer synthesis treatment process.
