Selective Bias Compensation for Patterning Steps in CMOS Processes

摘要

A method includes forming a photo resist pattern, and performing a light-exposure on a first portion of the photo resist pattern, wherein a second portion of the photo resist pattern is not exposed to light. A photo-acid reactive material is coated on the first portion and the second portion of the photo resist pattern. The photo-acid reactive material reacts with the photo resist pattern to form a film. Portions of the photo-acid reactive material that do not react with the photo resist pattern are then removed, and the film is left on the photo resist pattern.
