Problems solved by technology

However, there is a problem that as the film thickness increases, the uniformity in the film thickness direction will be lost after exposure. As a result, the processing accuracy of the fine pattern not only in the depth direction but also in the direction of the film surface will also decrease.
However, only random sea-island structures can be formed, and it is difficult to control the pattern size of uniform concave-convex or linear-shaped fine patterns, etc.

Embodiment 1

[0159] Select Cr 1-x o x , Nb 1-x o x 、 Ta 1-x o x 、Ti 1-x o x As a transition metal heat-reactive resist material. In addition, the etch layer chooses SiO 2 .

[0160] First, a film of 350 nm was formed under the conditions in Table 3 below on a glass flat substrate of 50 mmφ by a sputtering method using a SiO2 target. Next, a Cr target of 40 nm was formed under the conditions in Table 3 using a Cr target 1-x o x membrane. For heat reactive resist material Nb 1-x o x 、 Ta 1-x o x 、Ti 1-x o x , and also the first SiO with a film thickness of 350nm 2 Film formation, after that, under the conditions in Table 3, Nb 1-x o x 、 Ta 1-x o x 、Ti 1-x o x film forming.

Abstract

A thermally reactive resist material is characterized in that the boiling point of a fluoride, i.e., an element of the material, is 200 DEG C or higher. Thus, the thermally reactive resist material having high resistance against dry etching to be performed so as to form a pattern having a large groove depth by using a chlorofluorocarbon gas is provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a heat-reactive resist material having high resistance to dry etching using a fluorocarbon gas, a laminate for thermal lithography using the same, and a method for manufacturing a mold using the same. Background technique [0002] In recent years, in the fields of semiconductors, optical and magnetic recording, and the like, demands for higher densification and higher integration have increased, and fine patterning techniques of hundreds to tens of nm or less have become necessary. Therefore, in order to realize these micropattern processing, the research on the element technology of each process such as mask, stepper, exposure, and resist material is in full swing. [0003] For example, in the process of masking and stepping machines, a special mask called a phase shift mask is used to improve the precision of fine pattern processing by giving light a phase difference and the effect of interference, or in the process o...
