Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving photoresist morphology through repetitive exposure. According to the method, problem that in a thick photoresist lithography technology, a morphology having an undercut structure is difficulty realized on the sidewall of the photoresist can be solved, and the method has the advantages of low cost and strong enforcement performance. The method comprises the following steps: coating a first photoresist and pre-baking the first photoresist, wherein the first photoresist only sensitizes to light of a first wavelength; coating a second photoresist and pre-baking the first photoresist, wherein the second photoresist only sensitizes the light of a second wavelength, and the second wavelength is different from the first wavelength; exposuring the first photoresist by using light of the first wavelength; exposuring the second photoresist by using light of the second wavelength; and developing the exposure first photoresist and the second photoresist, wherein, the exposure condition is set, so that the size of the developed first photoresist is smaller than the size of the second photoresist.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a method for improving the morphology of photoresist through repeated exposure. Background technique [0002] It is generally considered that photolithography is the most critical step in the field of semiconductor manufacturing, so a high-performance photolithography process is required in order to obtain high yields in combination with other processes. The photolithography process requires the application of a photoresist. Photoresist is coated on the surface of the substrate as a soluble polymer, and then undergoes a series of treatments such as baking, exposure, and development to form patterns on the surface of the substrate. [0003] An important characteristic parameter of photoresists is contrast. Contrast refers to the steepness of the transition from exposed to non-exposed areas on the photoresist. It is ideal to have high contrast to produce vertical photo...
