摘要
This paper investigates the resolution limit of KrF excimer laser lithography using phase-shifting mask (PSM) technology by simulation and experiment. An improved phase-shifting mask structure combined with a newly developed crosslinking type negative-tone resist on a reflection-suppressed trilayer resist makes it possible to delineate minimum pattern size of 0.13 mu m with sufficient depth of focus, using a high-NA lens system under high coherent light. These results show that KrF excimer laser lithography applying PSM technology is a good candidate for gigabit-level ULSI fabrication by lithography.
