Description

Bridge-structure photoresist resin, krF photoresist composition and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of photoresist, and particularly relates to a bridge-structure photoresist resin, a KrF photoresist composition and a preparation method thereof.
Background
With the development of semiconductor technology, the density and complexity of integrated circuits have increased. In order to achieve smaller device sizes and higher integration, photolithography is one of the key processes for fabricating fine structures. Photoresist is an important component of the lithographic process and serves as a photomask during the lithographic process. However, as device sizes continue to shrink, the resolution and performance of ultraviolet lithography have reached a limit. To meet the higher demands, it is necessary to develop a photoresist of higher resolution. Compared to conventional ultraviolet rays, krF lasers have shorter wavelengths and higher energies, enabling higher resolution and smaller feature sizes, which makes it possible to fabricate higher performance microelectronic devices. However, conventional photoresist materials may have problems such as resolution limitations or photoresist exhaustion at high resolution. Therefore, based on the urgent need for higher resolution and higher performance microelectronic devices, it is important to find a photoresist resin and KrF photoresist composition having high resolution, high sensitivity and good chemical stability.

Test case
The KrF photoresist compositions of the above examples and comparative examples were coated on an 8 inch silicon wafer (spin-on rotation speed 1500rpm, spin-on thickness) Baking at 130deg.C for 60s to remove solvent, exposing with an exposure machine (exposure wavelength 248 nm), baking the exposed silicon wafer at the temperature shown in column "PEB" of Table 1 (90deg.C) for 60s, and developing in 2.38wt% tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) developer to obtain the lithography pattern. The sensitivity, film thickness change before and after development, and development resolution pattern were measured at the same resolution, and the results are shown in table 1, and the photolithography performance was observed by comparing the CD-SEM image with the V-SEM image after the sample was sliced.
TABLE 1
As can be seen from table 1, the bridge photoresist resin and KrF photoresist composition prepared in the examples of the present invention have higher sensitivity at the same resolution and small film thickness variation before and after development, compared with the comparative examples, indicating high resolution, high sensitivity and good chemical stability. As can be seen from the CD-SEM images and the V-SEM images of the patterns obtained in the comparative examples and comparative examples, the patterns obtained in the examples have better morphological effects. Specifically, as can be seen from fig. 1 and fig. 2, the patterns obtained in example 1 and example 2 have better edge flatness and straight morphology under the same resolution, which illustrates that the bridge-type structured photoresist grafted with the NBD type monomer has an improvement effect on the pattern morphology. As can be seen from fig. 3 and fig. 4, the patterns obtained in comparative examples 1 and 2 have poor edge flatness, are not developed and opened, and have poor pattern morphology under the same resolution, which indicates that the structural resin has poor photoetching performance and cannot meet the requirement of a process window. In summary, the bridge photoresist resin and the KrF photoresist composition provided by the invention have high resolution, high sensitivity and good chemical stability.
