RESIST UNDERCOAT-FORMING MATERIAL AND PATTERNING PROCESS

摘要

In the lithographic multilayer resist process, a material comprising a copolymer of a hydroxy-containing vinylnaphthalene with hydroxy-free olefins is useful in forming a resist undercoat. The undercoat-forming material has a high transparency and optimum values of n and k so that it functions as an antireflective coating during short-wavelength exposure, and has etching resistance during substrate processing by etching.
