Description

레지스트 하층막용 조성물 및 패턴 형성 방법Resist Underlayer Film Composition and Pattern Forming Method
레지스트 하층막용 조성물 및 패턴 형성 방법에 관한 것이다.A composition for resist underlayer films and a pattern formation method.
마이크로일렉트로닉스 뿐만 아니라 마이크로스코픽 구조물(예를 들어, 마이크로머신, 마그네토레지스트 헤드 등)의 제작을 비롯한 산업 분야에서 패턴의 크기를 감소시켜 주어진 칩 크기에 보다 많은 양의 회로를 제공하고자 하는 요구가 존재한다.There is a need to reduce the size of patterns to provide larger amounts of circuitry for a given chip size, as well as in microelectronics as well as in the fabrication of microscopic structures (eg, micromachines, magnetoresist heads, etc.). .
효과적인 리쏘그래픽 기법은 패턴 크기를 감소시키기 위하여 필수적이다.  리쏘그래픽은 소정의 기판 상에 패턴을 직접적으로 이미지화시킨다는 측면에서뿐만 아니라 그러한 이미지화에 전형적으로 사용된 마스크를 제조한다는 측면에서 마이크로스코픽 구조물의 제조에 영향을 미친다.Effective lithographic techniques are necessary to reduce the pattern size. Lithographic influences the fabrication of microscopic structures in terms of directly imaging a pattern on a given substrate, as well as in manufacturing a mask typically used for such imaging.
전형적인 리쏘그래픽 공정은 이미지화 방사선에 방사선-민감성 레지스트를 패턴 방식으로 노출시킴으로써 패턴화된 레지스트 층을 형성하는 단계를 포함한다.  이어서, 노출된 레지스트 층을 현상액으로 현상한다.  이어서, 패턴은 패턴화된 레지스트 층의 개구부 내에 있는 물질을 에칭함으로써 이면 재료에 전사시킨다.  전사가 완료된 후, 잔류하는 레지스트 층은 제거한다.Typical lithographic processes include forming a patterned resist layer by patterning exposing the radiation-sensitive resist to imaging radiation. The exposed resist layer is then developed with a developer. The pattern is then transferred to the backing material by etching the material in the openings of the patterned resist layer. After the transfer is completed, the remaining resist layer is removed.
그러나, 일부 리쏘그래픽 이미지화 공정의 경우, 사용된 레지스트는 레지스트 이면에 있는 층으로 소정의 패턴을 효과적으로 전사시킬 수 있을 정도로 후속적인 에칭 단계에 대한 충분한 내성을 제공하지 못한다.  따라서, 예컨대 초박막 레지스트 층이 필요한 경우, 에칭 처리하고자 하는 이면 재료가 두꺼운 경우, 상당할 정도의 에칭 깊이가 필요한 경우 및/또는 소정의 이면 재료에 특정한 에칭액(etchant)을 사용하는 것이 필요한 경우, 일명 레지스트 하층막(resist underlayer)이라고 불리는 하층막을 레지스트 층과 패턴화된 레지스트로부터 전사에 의해 패턴화될 수 있는 이면층 사이에 중간층으로 사용한다.  However, for some lithographic imaging processes, the resist used does not provide sufficient resistance to subsequent etching steps to effectively transfer the desired pattern to the layer behind the resist. Thus, for example, when an ultra thin resist layer is required, when the backing material to be etched is thick, when a considerable etching depth is required and / or when it is necessary to use a specific etchant for a given backing material, An underlayer film called a resist underlayer is used as an intermediate layer between the resist layer and the back layer which can be patterned by transfer from the patterned resist.
상기 레지스트 하층막은 에칭 선택성이 높고 다중 에칭에 대한 내성이 충분하며 레지스트 층과 이면층 사이의 반사를 최소화할 수 있는 레지스트 하층막용 조성물을 사용하여 형성될 수 있다. The resist underlayer film may be formed using a resist underlayer film composition that has high etching selectivity, sufficient resistance to multiple etching, and minimizes reflection between the resist layer and the back layer.
레지스트 하층막용 조성물은 레지스트 층의 해상도, 리쏘그래피 속도 및 잔사와 같은 노광 특성을 결정하는데 중요하다.  특히 극자외선(extreme ultraviolet radiation, EUV) 레이저를 사용하여 초미세화 리쏘그래피 공정을 수행하는 경우 이러한 노광 특성은 더욱 중요하다. The resist underlayer film composition is important for determining exposure characteristics such as resolution, lithography speed and residue of the resist layer. This exposure characteristic is particularly important when performing ultrafine lithography processes using extreme ultraviolet radiation (EUV) lasers.

실리콘 기판 위에 실시예 1 내지 4와 비교예 1에 따른 레지스트 하층막용 조성물을 스핀-온 코팅 방법으로 도포한 후, 핫플레이트 위에서 205℃에서 1분간 열처리하여 약 100nm 두께의 레지스트 하층막을 형성하였다.The resist underlayer film composition according to Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Example 1 was applied onto a silicon substrate by a spin-on coating method, and then heat-treated at 205 ° C. for 1 minute on a hot plate to form a resist underlayer film having a thickness of about 100 nm.
이어서 상기 레지스트 하층막의 밀도를 측정하였다.  상기 레지스트 하층막의 밀도는 X-Ray Diffractometer (Model: X'Pert PRO MPD, Panalytical사 (Netherlands) 제조)를 사용하여 측정하였다.Next, the density of the resist underlayer film was measured. The density of the resist underlayer film was measured using an X-Ray Diffractometer (Model: X'Pert PRO MPD, manufactured by Panalytical (Netherlands)).

The resist layer was exposed to an acceleration voltage of 100 keV using an e-beam exposure machine (manufactured by Elionix), and then heat-treated at 110 ° C. for 60 seconds. The resist layer was then developed with a 2.38 wt% aqueous tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) solution and then rinsed with pure water for 15 seconds to form a resist pattern.
상기 레지스트 패턴의 최적 노광량, 해상도 및 현상 잔사를 평가하였다.The optimum exposure dose, resolution and developing residue of the resist pattern were evaluated.
여기서 0.25㎛의 라인 앤드 스페이스(line and space)를 1:1로 해상하는 노광량을 최적 노광량(Eop, μC/㎠)이라 하고, 상기 최적 노광량에 있어서 라인 앤드 스페이스의 최소 선폭을 해상도라고 한다.  해상도는 한계 해상도(nm)를 전자 주사 현미경(SEM) S-9260(Hitachi 제조)을 사용하여 측정하였다.Here, the exposure amount for resolving a line and space of 0.25 μm in a 1: 1 ratio is called an optimal exposure amount (Eop, μC / cm 2), and the minimum line width of the line and space in the optimum exposure amount is called a resolution. The resolution was measured using a limit resolution (nm) using an electron scanning microscope (SEM) S-9260 (manufactured by Hitachi).
현상 잔사는 테트라메틸암모늄 하이드록사이드(TMAH) 2.38wt% 수용액에 용해되는 속도(dissolution rate, DR)를 기준으로 하며, 그 속도가 빠를수록 패턴 형성 후의 현상 잔사가 감소하고 그 감소하는 정도를 전자 주사 현미경(SEM)으로 관찰하여 양호한 경우 ○, 미흡한 경우 △, 불량(스컴 발생)인 경우 X로 표시하였다.The development residue is based on the dissolution rate (DR) dissolved in a 2.38 wt% aqueous solution of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH). Observation was carried out with a scanning microscope (SEM) to indicate good case ○, insufficient case △, and poor case (scum).
