Abstract
Cell projection e-Beam lithography is one of the technology to increase the throughput capability, which is the demerit of conventional e-Beam lithography. In cell projection e-Beam lithography, Stencil mask fabrication is one of the most essential issue. Particularly, in fabricating stencil mask, both dry etching technique for forming aperture pattern and backside wet etching technique for forming silicon membrane are the most important technologies. With improvements in the techniques, Stencil mask that has low electric resistance compared with that made of SOI (Silicon-on-Insulator) wafer and vertical cross sectional profile is fabricated by the use of a (100) oriented silicon wafer. In addition, A device pattern of 0.13 micrometer which is sufficient for fabricating a 1G DRAM was delineated on wafer using this stencil mask.
