ALKALINE-RESISTANT NEGATIVE PHOTORESIST FOR SILICON WET-ETCH WITHOUT SILICON NITRIDE

摘要

New photoresists for use during the production of semiconductor and MEMS devices are provided. The primer layer preferably comprises a silane dissolved or dispersed in a solvent system. The photoresist layer includes a first polymer prepared from a styrene and an acrylonitrile, and a second polymer comprising epoxy-containing monomers (and preferably phenolic-containing monomers). The photoresist layer comprises a photoacid generator, and is preferably negative-acting.
