Abstract

PURPOSE:To form fine patterns with thick resist film by a method wherein a thick positive type photoresist film is provided with small step differences and after flattening a masking film with sufficient thickness, the photoresist pattern is RIE-processed utilizing O2 gas. CONSTITUTION:An Si substrate 1 is coated with thick positive type photoresist 2 while small step differences are made by short time exposure and development and then the photoresist 2 is rotary-coated with SiO2 3 to flatten the surface. After a little bit heat-treatment, the SiO2 3 is etched to expose the surface of resist 2 leaving SiO2 in the cavities. Finally fine patterns with thick resist film may be completed by means of performing RIE-process utilizing SiO2 3 as a mask.

(Conventional technology) Conventionally, thick resists have been used when there is a large step on the surface of a semiconductor substrate, when the etching rate is not much different between the etching material and the resist, or when etching needs to be performed for a long time. Formation of a film is required. However, in the photolithography technique, as the resist becomes thicker, the size of the pattern that can be formed becomes larger, and there is a drawback that fine patterns cannot be formed. It was thought that the resolution was only up to the thickness of the resist film.

(Means for Solving the Problems) According to the present invention, a thick positive photoresist film is first formed on a semiconductor substrate, and then exposed to light for a short time and developed, the step difference is small compared to the film thickness. form. Thereafter, a layer of mask material for dry etching of the resist is formed on the resist. At this time, if the mask material is sufficiently thick, one surface will be formed flat. Next, the mask material is etched to a degree K that exposes the upper part of the resist, and finally, the mask material remaining in the resist recesses is used to remove the 0! Dry etching is performed using reactive ion etching (RIE) using gas. At this time, the actual patterning is performed on a thin layer of resist, so it is characterized by better resolution than conventional methods.

FIG. 1 shows a photoresist 2 coated thickly on a semiconductor substrate 1. In FIG. The gold resist 2 is exposed to such a small amount of light that the lower part thereof is not exposed.

When developed, only the upper part of the resist 2 is patterned as shown in FIG. This is because the incident light is absorbed by the upper part of the resist 2 and cuts the polymer.

This is because sufficient light does not reach the lower part and the cutting is insufficient. After forming the gold pattern with small steps on the upper part of the resist 2 in this way, the resist 2
A mask material such as an oxide film 3 is formed thereon by spin coating. At this time, if the thickness of the oxide film 3 is increased, the upper part will be formed flat due to its fluid properties. After the resist 2 is further heat-treated to the extent that it does not cause burn-in.

As shown in FIG. 4, the applied oxide film 3 is etched to the extent that the upper end of the resist 2 is exposed. The etching at this time may be dry or wet. As a result, the oxide film 3 remains only in the recessed portions of the resist 2. By performing RIE dry etching with O2 gas using the entire oxide film 3 as a mask, it is possible to form a pattern for a thick resist film, such as a resist entire etching pattern, as shown in FIG.
