Abstract
A thermally cross-linking bottom anti-reflectant, AR2, is evaluated. The material can be made in a range of absorptivities. An optimum optical density of about 9/(mu) ( 248 nm) which lowers photoresist swing curves to less than 2%, was chosen from optical modeling and etch rate measurements. The material offers spin bowl compatibility with common spin- coating solvents, and etch rates and conformality improvements over commercially available materials. Good profiles were obtained for several photoresists, and wider process windows than on planar silicon.
