Abstract:
This short course will describe the development and applications of chemically amplified resists from the beginnings of deep ultraviolent lithography to today’s EUV resists. Emphasis will be on the properties and chemistry of these materials and how resist design determines lithographic performance. Included will be a discussion of alternative patterning technologies such as multiple patterning, DSA and nanoimprint. New inorganic resist materials and the special challenges facing the development of EUV resists for the sub 7 nm nodes will be addressed.
