Critical challenges for EUV resist materials

TL;DR: The major issue for the 22-nm half-pitch node remains simultaneously meeting resolution, line-edge roughness (LER), and sensitivity requirements as discussed by the authors, although several materials have met the resolution requirements, LER and sensitivity remain a challenge.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

An EUV Fresnel zoneplate mask-imaging microscope for lithography generations reaching 8 nm

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the potential optical performance capabilities of a next-generation extreme ultraviolet (EUV) mask-imaging microscope, based on the proven optical principle of the SEMATECH Berkeley Actinic Inspection Tool (AIT), but substantially surpassing it in every performance metric.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

The SEMATECH Berkeley MET: extending EUV learning down to 16nm half pitch

TL;DR: In this paper, five chemically amplified platforms were found to support 20-nm dense patterning at a film thickness of approximately 45 nm, but none of the resists were able to cleanly resolve a single line within a bulk pattern.

Creating an EUV mask microscope for lithography generations reaching 8 NM

TL;DR: SHARP as discussed by the authors is a synchrotron-based extreme ultraviolet (EUV, 13.5-nm wavelength) micro-scope to support advanced photomask research for the semiconductor industry.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Berkeley Center for Structural Biology at the Advanced Light Source

TL;DR: The Berkeley Center for Structural Biology (BCSB) operates and develops a suite of protein crystallography beamlines at the Advanced Light Source (ALS) located at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) as mentioned in this paper.
