Description

水溶性负性电子束光刻胶及其成像方法 技术领域
本发明涉及光刻胶领域,具体涉及一种水溶性负性电子束光刻胶及其成像方法。
背景技术
大规模集成电路自上世纪60年代至今已经历了半个多世纪的发展,单片晶圆的存储量也成摩尔定律增长。目前由于光刻精度的日益提高,电子束光刻技术也在工业生产中得到了广泛的应用。作为大规模集成电路工业中的关键性功能材料,光刻胶一直是研究的重点,譬如,它的灵敏度、空间分辨率以及物理化学稳定性。光刻胶在曝光前后通常会发生交联或者降解,在显影液中溶解度发生变化,再经历刻蚀、去膜,就可以将特定的高精度图形转移到目标基片表面了。根据曝光后在显影液中溶解速度的提升或者降低可分为正性和负性光刻胶,负性光刻胶在显影过程中曝光位置的感光树脂不再溶于显影液从而被保留下来,未曝光位置的感光树脂则被洗去,目前光刻胶产业存在几方面的问题:1、光酸产生剂使用过程中的有机酸腐蚀金属,污染环境;2、使用的光刻胶溶液多为氯苯,乳酸乙酯;显影液则多为甲基异丁基甲酮和异丙醇,都存在一定的生物毒性和环境危害性,而且价格不菲;3、必须引入强效光引发催化剂,使得光刻胶成本昂贵。随着生产技术的日益更新,人们对自身和环境的保护意识日益加强,在提升光刻胶性能的同时,优化光刻工艺过程中的操作环境也是迫在眉睫的命题。

综上所述,本发明公开了水溶性负性电子束光刻胶,首次提出了含有羟基侧链的水溶性聚合物在电子束光刻系统中的应用,试制出了具有高分辨率的环保型电子束光刻胶。可以降低传统光刻胶的生物毒性,提高光刻工艺过程中人体的舒适度。所述感光树脂为具有水溶性特征的高分子聚合物,利用其在电子束曝光下的自交联作用,改变曝光前后的水溶性差异,实现图像显影。该水溶性感光树脂是侧链含1个或多个OH基的水溶性聚合物,溶剂和显影液都为水,因此在半导体制造中使用这种光刻胶将是环保的。且此类侧链带有OH基的水溶性聚合物中有一些已经具有很成熟的工业化生产能力,这将大大降低电子束光刻胶的成本,未来可应用于工业化生产中本发明还提供了一种水溶性负性电子束光刻胶成像方法,完全以水作为光刻胶的溶剂和显影液,对环境和人体完全无污染,其具有良好的应用前景。
应说明的是,以上实施例仅用以说明本发明的技术方案而非限制,尽管参照较佳实施例对本发明进行了详细说明,本领域的普通技术人员应当理解,可以对本发明的技术方案进行修改或者等同替换,而不脱离本发明技术方案的精神和范围,其均应涵盖在本发明的权利要求范围当中。
