Proceedings ArticleDOI
High performance mask fabrication process for the next-generation mask production
Keisuke Yagawa,Kunihiro Ugajin,Machiko Suenaga,Yoshihito Kobayashi,Takeharu Motokawa,Kazuki Hagihara,Masato Saito,Masamitsu Itoh +7 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors investigated a potential of mask fabrication process for finer patterning and achieved 17nm dense line pattern on mask plate by using VSB (Variable Shaped Beam) type EB mask writer and chemically amplified resist.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
1nm of local CD accuracy for 45nm-node photomask with low sensitivity CAR for e-beam writer
Kunihiro Ugajin,Masato Saito,Machiko Suenaga,Tomotaka Higaki,Hideaki Nishino,Hidehiro Watanabe,Osamu Ikenaga +6 more
TL;DR: The performance with the low sensitivity CAR was good enough to produce photomasks for 45nm half pitch (HP) devices and shot noise model was applied to estimate Line Edge Roughness (LER).
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Reduction of resist charging effect by EB reticle writer EBM-7000
TL;DR: In this article, the degradation of image placement accuracy is caused by resist charging effect in photomask production process, where the surface of resist film will be charged with exposed electron beam, and electric field will be generated around that charged area, so the orbit of electron beam for next exposure will be bended by the electric field generated by previous beam shot, and image placements accuracy will degrade.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Performances and Challenges of Today’s EB Lithography and EB-resist Materials
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of conventional mask fabricating process was examined and the impact of proximity effect to the resist performance was examined, showing that resist damage induced by proximity effect degrades the resolution limit about 2nm.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Potential of mask production process for finer pattern fabrication
Keisuke Yagawa,Kunihiro Ugajin,Machiko Suenaga,Yoshihito Kobayashi,Takeharu Motokawa,Kazuki Hagihara,Masato Saito,Masamitsu Itoh +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the potential of mask production process with EB writer from the view of finer pattern fabrication performance and succeeded to fabricate a 17nm pattern on mask plate by using VSB (Variable======Shaped Beam) type EB mask writer with CAR (Chemically Amplified Resist).
