Embodiment Construction

[0020] In order to make the object, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] The method for improving the exposure uniformity of the grating provided by the present invention arranges trapezoidal compensation patterns around the original nanoscale grating, which reduces the influence of the proximity effect on the pattern, so that each grating bar is not deformed and superimposed. The nanoscale gratings are densely arranged in submicron order period, and the edges of the pattern are smooth.

[0022] figure 1 A flow chart of an electron beam exposure method for improving grating exposure uniformity according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. Such as figure 1 As shown, this embodiment takes a GaAs-based epitaxial wafer as an example, and the method includes the following s...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving the uniformity of a grating, and particularly relates to an electron beam exposure method for improving the uniformity of a grating structure. The method comprises the steps that electron beam glue coats a wafer, and the wafer coated with the electron beam glue is placed in a baking oven to be prebaked; trapezoid compensatory figures are arranged around the grating structure by utilizing a layout design tool; electron beam exposure and development are carried out on the wafer to finish the grating structure containing the trapezoid compensatory figures. By utilizing the compensatory figures, the method weakens the influence of the proximity effect in the electron beam exposure, and the uniformity of nanometer-scale grating exposure is increased. Instead of weakening the proximity effect by changing the exposure dose and size of a figure, the proximity effect is weakened by increasing the compensatory figures around the figure in order to improve the grating exposure uniformity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the processing field of nanoscale microfabrication technology, in particular to an electron beam exposure pattern compensation method for improving the uniformity of nanoscale gratings. Background technique [0002] Electron beam lithography is widely used in nanoelectronics and optoelectronic devices. Electron beam exposure uses a high-energy focused electron beam to directly draw or project a reproduced pattern on a resist-coated substrate. Since the de Broglie wavelength range of the electrons in the electron beam is 0.04-0.1 Angstroms, the resolution is not affected by diffraction effects. Electron beam exposure can ensure accurate graphics and smooth edges in the range of 50-500nm. In fact, the resolution of electron beam exposure mainly depends on the electron beam spot size determined by the electron optical system, the proximity effect, the characteristics of the electron beam glue and the development method and other...
