  • Exposure And Positioning Against Photoresist Photosensitive Materials (AREA)
  • Exposure Of Semiconductors, Excluding Electron Or Ion Beam Exposure (AREA)

Abstract

PURPOSE:To conduct accurate patterning by altering the exposing conditions by dividing one chip region into a plurality of regions to be exposed, and using a photomask having patterns of different correction values according to regions to be exposed. CONSTITUTION:Chip regions 2 are divided into A-C, and exposed under separate exposing conditions by reticles 1a-1c. The reticle 1a having a pattern of large correction value of 4mum is used, slightly excess exposing conditions are given to form an accurate resist pattern 41 on the region A. Similarly, the region B is exposed with the reticle 1b having a pattern 32 of approximately intermediate size of correction value of 3mum, and the region C is exposed with the reticle 1c having the most ultrafine pattern 33 of correction value of 2mum. According to this configuration, accurate various resist patterns can be formed on respective one unit regions having various sizes.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Summary] A conventional unit exposure area is divided into a plurality of exposure areas, and each exposure area is exposed using a photomask having a pattern with a different correction value.

In the manufacturing method of semiconductor devices, one of the essential manufacturing steps is a so-called photo process in which fine patterns are formed by photolithography, and a photomask is very important in this photo process. In the past, emulsion masks were used as photomasks2, but recently, as ICs become more highly integrated and finer, hard masks, which are excellent in forming fine patterns, have become widely used.

[Problems to be solved by conventional technology and invention]
Bar 1 - There are two types of masks: a mask for close exposure and a reticle for reduced exposure.
An exposure method is used in which a 10x pattern is set up, and this is reduced to 115 to 1/10 using a lens system and exposed onto the semiconductor substrate.

This is a method that has become widely used as an alternative to contact exposure due to advances in optical equipment. Unlike contact exposure, it is not possible to expose the semiconductor substrate all at once, but for example, it is possible to repeatedly expose each chip area of the semiconductor substrate. This is a method that allows highly accurate patterning of layers. The present invention
A reticle will be described below as an example.

Figure 3 shows a schematic cross-section of a conventional exposure method using a reticle.
-1- reticle pattern, 2b chip area of semiconductor substrate, 21.22 reticle pattern 11.12 17
This is a positive type resist 1 pattern of the chip area 2-[ which is exposed in a reduced size to 10. Among them, reticle pattern 1
1 is a pattern for forming a resist 1-pattern with a size of approximately 1 (Ium) and 1 μm on the conductor plate, and the reticle pattern 12 is approximately 1 μm in size.
With a size of 0011m, the semiconductor substrate -1-δ IOit
This is a pattern for forming a resist pattern with a size of m.

However, in the exposure process, if the exposure is insufficient, a problem may easily occur in which the resist 1- remains even in unnecessary areas (removed areas of the resist 1) during development.
It is customary to completely remove unnecessary parts. For this reason, in L/Chikulbacoon 11.12, a slightly larger pattern is provided in anticipation of overexposure, for example, a pattern in which 4ttm is added as a correction value to the predetermined size is provided. If this is done, the reticle pattern 1 will have a size of 104 μm, and the reticle pattern 12 will have a size of 14 μm.

However, when these reticle patterns 11 and 12 are exposed, the resist pattern 21 formed by the reticle pattern 11 under certain exposure conditions becomes exactly 101! When the resist pattern 22 is formed with high precision as 1.m, the resist pattern 22 formed by one small reticle pattern I2 is 1.m.

On the other hand, it is conceivable that a method of adding such a correction value not uniformly but at a constant ratio proportional to the size of the pattern,
Even in that case, since the exposure conditions are the same, a difference in precision between the large pattern and the small pattern is unavoidable, and it is difficult to form both patterns with high precision. Therefore, in order to pattern with high precision, it is most desirable to set exposure conditions suitable for the size of the pattern.
