Ch7 - Areal Image: Pattern of radiation at the surface of the wafer during exposure. To transfer a pattern, radiation changes the properties of the light sensitive material so that a replica (or a negative of the mask) of the mask is left behind.
Photoresists (PR) or resists Three components: Resin, base material Photoactive compound (PAC) Solvent Measures of performance: • Sensitivity: amount of light energy necessary to create the chemical change in the PR • Resolution: smallest feature that can be reproduced in PR Types of PR: • Positive: i Exposed regions dissolve more quickly during development process (has better resolution than negative) • Negative: Unexposed regions dissolve more quickly during • Negative: Unexposed regions dissolve more quickly during development process
