Abstract

An electron beam double resist process to obtain high resolution and dense bright field pattern was studied. The technique was demonstrated using a positive resist like polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) and converting it to a bright field mask. Two resist hardening/softening methods called electron scanning and deep ultraviolet (DUV) exposure methods were compared. The DUV method resulted in a uniform pattern and short processing time without causing any PMMA residue due to insufficient exposure.
