Method for resist filling and planarization of high aspect ratio features

A method of forming a resist layer of uniform thickness across a surface patterned with a varying density of high aspect ratio features.

Zusammenfassung:	A method of forming a resist layer of uniform thickness across a surface patterned with a varying density of high aspect ratio features. A selected material layer having an affinity to a resist coat to be applied over the selected material layer is applied to a wafer having a plurality of recesses before applying a resist coat. After the resist coat is applied over the selected material layer, the selected material diffuses partially into the resist coat to condition a portion of the resist coat to be insoluble in the presence of a developer which is applied after the resist coat. Those portions of the resist coat into which the selected material layer has not diffused then are removed by a developer leaving a uniform resist coat thickness across the wafer.
