Photoresist
Photoresist is the core photosensitive material of the lithography process. Through coating, exposure and development, it accurately transfers the circuit design on the photomask onto the wafer surface, forming a pattern barrier for subsequent etching or ion implantation.
- • Logic: 2X nm technology node; Memory: 1X-2X nm technology node
- • 8/12-inch processes
- • Supporting Equipment: ASML-1900Gi
- •Ultra-low line width roughness (LWR) effectively ensures smooth and precise line edges, thereby improving the overall reliability and performance stability of the product.
- •Well-designed process window provides a wide tolerance range for process parameters, making the production process more flexible and controllable, and significantly enhancing manufacturing efficiency and product yield.
- •Topcoat-free immersion photoresist forms a hydrophobic barrier layer on its surface spontaneously, which suppresses the spreading and penetration of immersion water, inhibits the leaching of key components, and reduces defects such as water marks. As a result, it achieves stable critical dimension (CD) and defect performance in immersion lithography without using an additional topcoat.
- •Excellent resolution: Continuous patterns without bridging or line breakage can be obtained even at smaller half-pitch, while maintaining low LER/LWR. It also exhibits a larger process window (higher exposure latitude (EL) and greater depth of focus (DOF)) near the target CD.
- • Application: Memory Via Layer
