【産業上の利用分野】本発明は半導体装置の製造工程等
で用いられるレジストパターンの形成方法に関する。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of forming a resist pattern used in a semiconductor device manufacturing process or the like.
【0002】近年,半導体装置の高集積化,微細化に伴
い,サブミクロン級あるいはそれ以下の微細なレジスト
パターンの形成が要求されている。In recent years, with the high integration and miniaturization of semiconductor devices, it is required to form a fine resist pattern of sub-micron grade or smaller.

た。When the resist film is directly coated on the substrate as in the conventional example, if the surface of the substrate is covered with a film having high reflectance, irregular reflection of light at the step portion is caused. Alternatively, there is a problem that a fine pattern cannot be formed due to the influence of the interference between the incident light and the reflected light on the substrate surface.

いう問題があった。To solve this problem, it is conceivable to lay a polymer having a high light absorption rate under the resist film. However, it is common to etch the polymer with the formed resist pattern as a mask. In addition, there is a problem that normal etching cannot be performed because the polymer etching rate is slow.

解像度の向上を目的とする。In particular, this problem is a serious problem in the exposure of short wavelength light (KrF, ArF excimer laser light) used for fine processing. An object of the present invention is to improve the pattern resolution by selecting, as a base polymer film for a resist film, a polymer having a large absorption rate for short wavelength light having a wavelength of 250 nm or less and being easily etched.

It absorbs light at (193 nm) well, so it is not affected by substrate reflection. Moreover, since the polymer represented by general formula (1) contains a large amount of silicon (Si), it does not interfere with the etching because it is etched together with the substrate by etching with halogen gas.

されたタングステン(W) 膜上に,下記の式(3)[Example] The following formula (3) was formed on a tungsten (W) film deposited on a Si substrate having a surface step difference of about 0.3 μm.

A resist pattern of 0.3 μm could be formed. Using this resist pattern as a mask, the tungsten film is covered with CCl 4 + O 2
When etched by reactive ion etching (RIE) using gas, the polymer of formula (3) could be etched without problems together with tungsten.

The resolution was normal only up to 4 μm. In addition, the side surface of the pattern was notched due to the standing wave caused by the interference between the reflected light from the substrate surface and the incident light.
