Description
본 발명은 나도 임프린트용 쿼츠(quartz) 스템프 제작 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention also relates to a method for manufacturing a quartz stamp for imprint.
나노 임프린트 기술은 1990년 대 중반 미국 Princeton 대학교의 Stephen Y. Chou 교수에 의해 도입된 나노 소자 제작 방법으로, 낮은 생산성을 갖는 전자빔 리쏘그라피나 고가의 광학 리쏘그라피를 대신할 기술로 주목받고 있다. 나노 임프린트 기술은 컴팩트 디스크(CD)와 같은 마이크로 스케일의 패턴을 갖는 고분자 소재 제품의 대량 생산에 사용되는 엠보싱(Embossing) 기술을 리쏘그라피에 적용한 것이다.Nanoimprint technology, a method of fabricating nanodevices introduced by Stephen Y. Chou of Princeton University in the mid-1990s, is drawing attention as an alternative to low-productivity electron beam lithography and expensive optical lithography. Nanoimprint technology is an embossing technique for lithography that is used for mass production of polymer material products with microscale patterns such as compact discs (CD).
나노 임프린트의 핵심은 전자빔 리쏘그라피나 다른 방법을 이용하여, 나노스케일의 구조를 갖는 스탬프를 제작하고, 스탬프를 고분자 박막에 각인하여, 나노스케일의 구조를 전사하고, 이를 반복 사용함으로써, 전자빔 리쏘그라피의 생산성 문제를 극복하자는 것이다.The core of nanoimprint is electron beam lithography using electron beam lithography or other methods to fabricate a nanoscale stamp, stamp the stamp on a polymer thin film, transfer the nanoscale structure, and use it repeatedly. Is to overcome the productivity problem.
상기와 같은 스탬프의 재료로는 실리콘 (Si), 산화실리콘(SiO2)과 같은 반도체 재료, 니켈(Ni)과 같은 금속 재료, 쿼츠(Quartz)와 같은 투명한 재료 및 고분자 물질 등이 사용될 수 있다.As the material of the stamp, a semiconductor material such as silicon (Si), silicon oxide (SiO 2), a metal material such as nickel (Ni), a transparent material such as quartz (Quartz), and a polymer material may be used.
임프린트 방법으로는 열을 가해 고분자를 성형하는 열 경화 방식의 임프린트 기법과 스탬프로 누르면서 자외선을 이용하여 고분자를 경화하여 성형하는 자외선 경화 방식의 임프린트 기법이 있는데, 앞서 나열한 물질은 모두 열경화 방식에 사용될 수 있으며, 특히 쿼츠 글래스, 투명 고분자 재료는 자외선 경화 방식에도 사용될 수 있다.Imprint methods include a thermosetting imprint technique that applies heat to form a polymer and an ultraviolet curing imprint technique that forms by curing a polymer using ultraviolet rays while pressing with a stamp. All the materials listed above can be used for thermosetting. In particular, quartz glass, transparent polymer material may be used in the ultraviolet curing method.
도 1은 종래의 열 경화 방식의 나노 임프린트 공정을 보인 개략 공정도로서, 대표적인 나노 임프린트 공정의 흐름을 보여준다.1 is a schematic process chart showing a conventional thermal curing nanoimprint process, showing a typical nanoimprint process flow.
상기 도면을 참조하여 우선 열경화 방식에 대해 설명하면, 실리콘과 같은 기판(1)에 고분자 박막(2)을 스핀 코팅한다. Referring to the above-described thermal curing method, first, the polymer thin film 2 is spin-coated on a substrate 1 such as silicon.
그런 다음, 제작된 스탬프(3)와 기판(1)을 평행하게 놓고, 고분자 박막(2)을 유리 전이 온도까지 가열한다.Then, the produced stamp 3 and the substrate 1 are placed in parallel, and the polymer thin film 2 is heated to the glass transition temperature.
그리고 나서, 스탬프(3)를 고분자 박막(2)과 물리적 접촉을 시키고, 압력을 가한 후, 온도를 낮춘다.Then, the stamp 3 is brought into physical contact with the polymer thin film 2, pressurized, and then the temperature is lowered.
그런 다음, 온도가 유리 전이 온도 이하가 되면 스탬프(3)와 고분자 박막(2)을 분리한다.Then, when the temperature is below the glass transition temperature, the stamp 3 and the polymer thin film 2 are separated.
한편, 자외선 경화방식은 열경화 방식과 유사한 방법이지만, 투명한 스탬프(3)와 자외선 경화형 고분자(2)를 이용해서 자외선 조사를 통해 경화하는 방식에서 그 차이점이 있다.On the other hand, the ultraviolet curing method is similar to the thermosetting method, but there is a difference in the method of curing through ultraviolet irradiation using a transparent stamp (3) and ultraviolet curing polymer (2).
상기 자외선 경화방식은 높은 온도와 압력을 필요로 하지 않기 때문에 최근에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있는 방식이다.Since the UV curing method does not require a high temperature and pressure, a lot of research has recently been conducted.
상기와 같은 나노 임프린트 공정에 의해 스탬프(3) 상의 나노 패턴이 고분자 박막(2)으로 옮겨지게 된다.The nano pattern on the stamp 3 is transferred to the polymer thin film 2 by the nanoimprint process as described above.
최근에는 관련 장비 기술의 발달에 힘입어, 작은 면적의 스탬프를 제작하고, 웨이퍼의 일부분에 임프린트 공정을 수행하고, 스탬프의 위치를 이동시켜 반복 작업을 수행하는 스텝 반복(Step-and-repeat) 방식의 기술에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다.Recently, thanks to the development of related equipment technology, a step-and-repeat method of producing a small area stamp, performing an imprint process on a portion of the wafer, and repeating work by moving the stamp position Research on the technology of the is actively being conducted.
특히, 자외선 경화 방식과 스텝 반복 방식이 결합된 스탭 앤 플래쉬 임프린트 리쏘그라피(Step and Flash Imprint Lithography) 방식은 기술적으로 가장 앞서 있다고 평가되고 있다. In particular, step and flash imprint lithography, which combines UV curing and step repetition, is considered to be at the forefront of technology.
이러한, 나노 Imprint 공정을 위해서는 스템프의 제작이 필수 적이다.For such a nano imprint process, the production of stamp is essential.
그러나, 이러한 고 밀도의 나노 패턴을 갖는 대 면적 스탬프를 전자빔 리쏘그라피로 제작하는 것은 고비용이 발생되는 문제가 있다.However, manufacturing large area stamps having such high density nanopatterns with electron beam lithography has a problem of high cost.
따라서, 나노임프린트를 위한 200nm주기 이하의 초미세 패턴을 갖는 쿼츠(Quartz) 스템프를 저 비용으로 쉽게 제작할 수 있도록 하는 스탬프 제작 방법이 시급히 요구되고 있다.Therefore, there is an urgent need for a stamp manufacturing method for easily manufacturing a quartz stamp having an ultrafine pattern of 200 nm or less for nanoimprint at low cost.
본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하고자 제안된 것으로서, 본 발명의 목적은 200nm이하의 주기 그레이팅 패턴을 가진 쿼츠 스템프를 저비용으로 쉽게 제작하는데 있다.The present invention is proposed to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to easily manufacture a quartz stamp having a periodic grating pattern of less than 200nm at low cost.
또한, 레이저 간섭 리쏘그래피와 사이드 월 패터닝(Side wall patterning)을 사용하는데 그 목적이 있다.It also aims to use laser interference lithography and side wall patterning.
상기의 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명에 따른 나노 임프린트용 쿼츠 스템프 제작 방법은, 쿼츠 기판 위에 질화실리콘(Si3N4)을 증착하는 단계; 상기 질화실리콘(Si3N4)위에 감광성 물질을 코팅하는 단계; 상기 감광성 물질을 레이저 간섭 리쏘그라피 방식을 이용해 패터닝하는 단계; 상기 감광성 물질을 마스크로 하여 질화실리콘(Si3N4)을 식각하는 단계; 상기 감광성 물질을 제거한 후, 질화실리콘(Si3N4) 위에 폴리실리콘(Poly-Si)을 증착하는 단계; 상기 질화실리콘(Si3N4)부분까지 폴리실리콘(Poly-Si)을 식각하는 단계; 상기 질화실리콘(Si3N4)을 에칭용액인 인산(H3PO4)로 식각하여 제거하는 단계; 상기 폴리실리콘(Poly-Si)을 마스크로 하여 쿼츠를 식각하는 단계; 상기 폴리실리콘(Poly-Si) 마스크를 제거하는 단계를 포함하여 이루어지는 것을 특징으로 한다.Nano imprint quartz stamp manufacturing method according to the present invention for achieving the above object comprises the steps of: depositing silicon nitride (Si3N4) on a quartz substrate; Coating a photosensitive material on the silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4); Patterning the photosensitive material using laser interference lithography; Etching silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4) using the photosensitive material as a mask; Removing the photosensitive material and then depositing poly-Si on silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4); Etching polysilicon up to the silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4) portion; Etching and removing the silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4) with phosphoric acid (H 3 PO 4) as an etching solution; Etching quartz using the poly-silicon as a mask; It characterized in that it comprises a step of removing the poly-silicon (Poly-Si) mask.
