ENVIROMENTALLY STABLE, THICK FILM, CHEMICALLY AMPLIFIED RESIST

Environmentally stable, chemically amplified (CA) positive resist compositions are described. These resist compositions are based on a blend of at least two types of polymer platforms. The first platform is a low activation energy, acetal blocked polyhydroxystyrene (PHS) based resin; the second plat...

Zusammenfassung:Environmentally stable, chemically amplified (CA) positive resist compositions are described. These resist compositions are based on a blend of at least two types of polymer platforms. The first platform is a low activation energy, acetal blocked polyhydroxystyrene (PHS) based resin; the second platform is an acrylate based resin containing a high activation energy acid labile group [such as tertiary-butyl acrylate(t-BA)]. The resist composition also contains a photo-acid generator (PAG), a base quencher, a surfactant dissolved in a suitable solvent. Also described, is the use of these resist composition in a method for forming a photoresist relief image on a substrate.
