Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of photoresists, and particularly to the application of polytelluroxane in non-chemically amplified photoresists. Background Art

[0002] Lithography technology is the foundation of the semiconductor industry. Its essence is a technology that uses photochemical reactions to generate micro-nano structures. Among them, the photoresist undergoes a solubility transformation upon exposure. After the solubility difference between the exposed part and the unexposed part is developed in a specific organic solvent or aqueous solution, the corresponding micro-nano structure can be obtained. Among them, the photoresist whose exposed part dissolves is called a positive photoresist, and the photoresist whose unexposed part dissolves is called a negative photoresist.

[0003] With the continuous advancement of Moore's law, the demand for continuous miniaturization of feature sizes in integrated circuits has promoted the development of lithography technology. The exposure wavelengths of lithography technology have successively experienced G-line (436 nm), I-line (365 nm), KrF (248 nm), ArF (193 nm), and are gradually developing towards shorter wavelengths. In recent years, extreme ultraviolet (EUV, 13.5 nm) lithography technology has greatly promoted the renewal and iteration of the chip manufacturing industry and has become the most promising nano-scale manufacturing technology. However, the limited power of the EUV light source and the energy loss of the multi-layer mirror system pose high requirements for the sensitivity of the photoresist. In addition, the high-resolution patterning of EUV requires the photoresist material to also have good resolution and line edge roughness. Therefore, developing new photoresists suitable for EUV lithography remains a huge challenge.

[0004] Traditional ultraviolet (UV) lithography generally uses chemically amplified photoresists (CARs), which contain an acid-sensitive polymer matrix and a photoacid generator. For example, in polystyrene-based CARs, the photoacid generator in-situ generates protons upon exposure, which can catalyze the deprotection reaction, thereby releasing a phenol structure that is soluble in alkaline solutions. CARs have been used in extreme ultraviolet light (EUV) lithography, but as the feature size shrinks, their disadvantages become more obvious. CARs are mainly composed of low-period elements, and they have poor absorption of 13.5 nm EUV; at the same time, as the pattern size decreases, the thickness of the photoresist film also decreases, and the problem of poor absorption becomes more significant. In addition, the complex working mechanism and multiple components of CARs mean that the randomness of the position and quantity of each component will lead to significant chemical noise, resulting in rough patterns, unclear structures, size variations, and pattern defects. This requires us to develop more suitable photoresist materials and working modes for EUV lithography.

[0005] In recent years, in order to avoid the above problems, non-chemically amplified resists (non-CARs) have gradually received more attention. For example, polymer-based main-chain scission type resists with good film-forming properties and stability. The principle is that when EUV is absorbed by the resist, secondary electrons are generated. These secondary electrons can cut the polymer main chain, and the cleavage produces small molecules with better solubility, so that the exposed area can be developed and removed. Main-chain scission type resists do not need to introduce photoacid generators, so they have fewer components and less chemical noise, and may reduce line edge roughness. The earliest main-chain scission type resist, and also the earliest resist applied to EUV lithography, is polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). After exposure, the main-chain C-C bonds or ester bonds in it will break, generating organic small molecules or oligomers. The latter has a larger solubility and is more soluble in the developer. However, since the main-chain scission type resist does not have the assistance of a chemical amplification process and the polymer main-chain bond energy is relatively large, a larger exposure dose is required, which limits its application in high-sensitivity EUV lithography. Therefore, solving the problem of weak EUV absorption of the resist is the key to the development of main-chain scission type resists. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The inventors have found that metal-based EUV resists have emerged in the prior art. These systems generally have higher absorption rates than CARs, but they all belong to negative resists. For specific pattern types, there is still a need for positive resists with high EUV absorption rates.

[0007] In order to solve the above-mentioned related technical problems, the main object of the present invention is to provide a non-chemically amplified resist based on polytelluroxane, utilizing the high absorption of Te element in EUV and the special Te-O main chain, aiming to achieve excellent UV lithography (I-line, KrF, ArF, etc.), electron beam lithography and EUV lithography performance, especially to solve the problem of EUV resists that take into account high sensitivity, high resolution and low line edge roughness.

[0008] In one aspect of the present invention, the present invention proposes the application of polytelluroxane in non-chemically amplified resists. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the polytelluroxane has a Te-O chain. This non-chemically amplified resist utilizes the high absorption of Te element in EUV and the special Te-O main chain, aiming to achieve excellent UV lithography (I-line, KrF, ArF, etc.), electron beam lithography and EUV lithography performance, especially to solve the problem of EUV resists that take into account high sensitivity, high resolution and low line edge roughness.

Dilute 0.5 mL of 30% aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution by half to obtain component B. Mix component A and component B thoroughly in a reaction flask. A large amount of heat is released during the reaction, and the organic phase changes from yellow to colorless. Continue the reaction for 2 days. After the reaction is completed, separate the organic phase and add it dropwise to 40 mL of methanol to produce a white precipitate. Wash the product with 10 mL of methanol and dry it in an oven at 60 °C to obtain a white solid of poly(phenyl n - propyl telluroxane) with the following structure:

[0135] where n is 50.

After development, the corresponding pattern can be obtained.

[0138] Analyze the sensitivity and resolution of the EUV lithography pattern of the polytelluroxane:

[0139] The sensitivity of the photoresist can be described by the exposure dose. The lower the exposure dose, the higher the sensitivity; the resolution of the photoresist can be described by the minimum line width. The smaller the minimum line width, the higher the resolution. The exposure doses and minimum line widths of the EUV lithography patterns of Examples 1 - 6 are listed in the following table 1.

[0140] Table 1

[0141]

[0142] It can be seen from the above analysis that the EUV exposure dose of the non-chemically amplified photoresist based on polytelluroxane of the present invention is between 7.58 - 32.6 mJ / cm 2 and the minimum line width is between 16 - 30 nm. Further, it can be found that the minimum exposure dose of the non-chemically amplified photoresist based on polytelluroxane of the present invention is only 7.58 mJ / cm 2 , compared with the commercial non-chemically amplified photoresist PMMA (about 20 mJ / cm 2 ), it has higher sensitivity. At the same time, the minimum line width of the non-chemically amplified photoresist based on polytelluroxane of the present invention can reach 16 nm, which has reached the performance of commercial photoresists. Especially in Examples 2 and 5, high sensitivity and high resolution are achieved simultaneously. At the same time, it can be observed that the line pattern has a low line edge roughness.

[0143] Characterize the UV lithography pattern of the polytelluroxane by optical microscopy and atomic force microscopy:

[0144] The UV lithography (I-line) pattern results of Example 7 were characterized by optical microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The relevant results are shown in Figure 8 a (optical microscopy image of UV lithography (I-line) of poly(phenyl n-butyl telluroxide)), and in Figure 8 b (atomic force microscopy image of UV lithography (I-line) of poly(phenyl n-butyl telluroxide)). The results show that poly(telluroxide) is feasible for UV lithography and has good UV lithography performance.

[0145] The electron beam lithography pattern of poly(telluroxide) was characterized by scanning electron microscopy:

[0146] The electron beam lithography pattern results of Example 8 were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. The relevant results are shown in Figure 9 a (scanning electron microscopy image of electron beam lithography of poly(phenyl n-butyl telluroxide)), Figure 9 b (cross-sectional scanning electron microscopy image of electron beam lithography of poly(phenyl n-butyl telluroxide)). The results show that poly(telluroxide) is feasible for electron beam lithography and has good electron beam lithography performance.
