제목 Study of interfacial roughness in EUV photoresist from a molecular approach
초록 One of the most challenging issues in developing sub-10nm EUV (extreme ultra violet) lithography is reducing the roughness in the patterns while maintaining high resolution and sensitivity upon light exposure. Previous studies have focused on photon shot noise and electron blur from photochemistry as main sources of the roughness in EUV lithography, thus stochastic modeling was the main approach to simulate EUV resist. However, stochastic model, which is derived from a continuum based approach without explicit description of polymer chains, cannot explain physical phenomena. As the desired pattern size and roughness is compatible to the molecular size of polymer chains, it is important to develop a resist model and interpret the roughness of pattern from a perspective of molecular aspect. We present our new approach in modeling EUV resist and show simulation results investigating the width, chain conformation and orientation at the interface between the exposed and unexposed area.
