We developed photo curing (P-) materials which can be cross-linked by short wavelength UV light, but not thermal process. The P- can achieve high planarization and good via filling because they have high reflow performance without viscosity increasing by baking process and almost no film shrinkage during the baking and photo curing process. The novel P- materials are suitable for very fine pattern manufacturing process as N5 generation which is needed planarization technology. Keywords: Spin-on-Carbon (), Planarization, Photo cross-link, Photo curing, UV, Reflow, Film shrinkage 1. Introduction Recently, very fine patterning with less than hpnm is created by multiple patterning with ArF immersion technology [1-3]. In this case, it is necessary to use under layer materials which can fill and planarize substrates having hole, trench and various topography in order to obtain enough focus margin in lithography step. Especially, (Spin-on-Carbon) materials which are applied multi-layer process are required not only dry etching resistance or optical control but also good via filling and high planarization on the substrates [4]. Conventional materials are used thermal curing system and mainly consist of resin, thermal cross-linker, acidic catalyst and solvent. The thermal curing are cross-linked between cross-linking sites in the resin and the cross-linker during baking and have resist solvent resistance. However, this kind of thermal curing system is difficult to achieve the good planarization because reflow of the resin was prohibited by viscosity increasing and causing the film shrinkage due to outgas during baking as shown in Fig. 1. Therefore, we newly developed photo curing (P-) which can be cross-linked Received April 11, 17 Accepted May 1, 17 by short wavelength UV light, but not thermal process. Especially, our P- materials are simple formulation which consists of only resin and solvent without cross-linker or other additives by putting photo cross-linking unit in the resin. The photo curing process flow is three steps of coating P-, reflow baking and UV exposure. In the reflow baking step, the P- can easily cause reflow of the resin because viscosity increasing which came from cross-link reaction is prevented. Moreover, they can avoid film shrinkage because of no cross-link by the baking. In the UV exposure step, there are almost no film shrinkage of the P- because they are preventable outgas or decomposition during photo curing. Therefore, we expect P- have capability of high planarization and good via filling compared to thermal curing as Fig. 1. This paper is described material design, photo curing performance and planarization of our P- and discussed applicability of P- for fabrication of very fine patterning in N5 generation.. Experimental.1. Material design and preparation The materials which being used in this paper listed in Table 1. T--1 is conventional thermal 373

The T--1 can be crosslinked between cross-linking sites in the resin and the cross-linker by baking. On the other hand, P- -1, P-- and P--3 are our photo curing which have photo cross-linking units in the P- resin and the units can be cross-linked with each other by short wavelength UV light (VUV; wavelength less than nm). The photo cross-linking unit of P--1 is same as P--, but is difference from P--3. Meanwhile, chemical structure of core unit of P--1 is same as P--3, but is different from P--. P- -1 and P--3 have four the cross-linking units in a resin, but P-- only has two units. Propylene glycol mono methyl ether (PGME) and propylene glycol mono methyl ether acetate (PGMEA) were used as solvent system of each. spinning and baking at 1 o C/3 sec in the coater tool. Finally, the film thickness after the stripping test were again measured and film loss rate which means washed out film amount by the stripping test were calculated from the actual film thickness after UV exposure and the stripping test..3. Check of film shrinkage To evaluate film shrinkage of, each were coated at A film thickness on 1 inch Si wafer without baking by the above coater tool, and then were measured the film thickness before baking by the above film thickness measurement tool. In next step, the coated wafers were baked at 15 o C/6 sec, and then were measured film thickness after baking. Finally, film shrinkage rate which means decreased film amount by baking were calculated from the actual film thickness before and after baking. Moreover, film shrinkage rate by UV exposure was also calculated... Check of photo curing performance A confirmation method of photo curing performance was as the following. At first, each were spin-coated at A film thickness on 1 inch Si wafer by a coater tool (Lithius Pro, TEL), and then baked at 15 o C/6 sec. The whole wafer coated were irradiated by short wavelength UV under from mj/cm (without UV exposure) to 5 mj/cm dose conditions by UV exposure tool, and then measured the film thickness after UV exposure by optical interference film thickness measurement tool (Lamda Ace VM-31, DNS). Secondly, the coated wafer were worked stripping test as below. A resist solvent (PGME/PGMEA=7/3) was dipped on the film surface and kept for 6 sec, and then dried by.4. Check of reflow property Reflow performance of during baking was evaluated by glass transition temperature (Tg), rheology curve and reflow distance check on topography substrate. For the Tg, films of each resin which baked at less than 1 o C for solvent removal were measured by DSC(Q-, TA Instrument). For the rheology curve, each films which similarly baked at less than 1 o C were measured by rheometer (MCR1, Anton Paar). To measure reflow distance, each were coated at A film thickness on chipped topography substrate with 4um trench and 1nm step height first. Distance of from right wall of the trench to minimum of film thickness on the 374

Scanning area of AFM was 8um x 8um. Difference of the distance before baking (DBefore) and after baking at 15 o C/6 sec (DAfter) was defined as reflow distance that the film moved during baking..5. Check of planarity performance Planarity performance was investigated by using a topography wafer which has dense area with 5um trench and 1nm pitch, 8um big trench area and open area. Additionally, height of step of the topography is nm and distance between dense and open area is 1 um. Each were coated at 15A film thickness on the topography substrate, and then baked at 15 o C/6 sec. Besides, the P- coated substrates were irradiated by UV at 5 mj/cm by UV exposure tool. X-section of the substrates were observed before baking, after baking and UV exposure by SEM(S-48, Hitachi), and then were measured film thickness. The film thickness was defined as distance from interface of film and the substrate to top of the film. Film thickness bias of open and dense area is Bias-1 and film thickness bias of edge and center on the big trench is Bias-. 3. Results and discussion 3.1. Photo curing performance The film loss rate in Table shows resist solvent resistance of each. T--1 showed enough solvent resistance by baking because the film loss rate of T--1 was less than 1%. On the other hand, P--1, P-- and P--3 had none of solvent resistance by only baking. However, P- -1 showed solvent resistance by UV exposure at over 5mJ/cm. P-- and P--3 had enough solvent resistance at over 1 mj/cm and 3 mj/cm, respectively. Therefore, photo crosslinking units in P--1 resin can be photo crosslink at lower UV dose or higher photo reactivity than P--3. Besides, the number of photo crosslinking unit depends on photo curing performance because P--1 with four the units was easy to be photo curing compared to P-- with two the units. Basically, material design of P- is necessary to select suitable kind of photo curing unit and content of the unit in a resin. 3.. Film shrinkage The film shrink rate in Table shows film shrinkage of each before and after baking or UV exposure. T--1 showed 17% film shrinkage after baking. It is higher than the P-. Therefore, thermal curing as T--1 are easy to cause film shrinkage due to thermal cross-linking reaction with outgas during baking but P- can prevent film shrinkage. Film shrinkage rate of the P- after UV exposure showed very small. This means the P- have almost no film shrinkage by UV exposure. Basically, these results prove P- are effective for planarity improvement because P- are less affected by film shrinkage during baking and UV exposure compared to conventional thermal curing Reflow property Figure shows Tg of the resins. P--1 or P-- resins were lower Tg than T--1 and P--3. Low Tg resin as P--1 or P-- may help to cause big reflow during baking because P- have none of curing by the baking. Figure shows rheology curve of each. T- -1 increased viscosity due to thermal curing at around 1 o C. However, P--1 and P-- did not occur viscosity increasing until around o C and minimum viscosity got lower than T- -1. Especially, P--3 can be kept low viscosity until around 3 o C. Therefore, P--3 can also cause big reflow although it has 375

Figure 3 shows AFM scanning images and reflow distance when T--1 and P--3 were coated on topography substrate. The reflow distance of T-1 was -14um but P--3 was +7um. Therefore, T--1 showed poor reflow distance because viscosity increasing and film shrinkage outstrip reflow during baking. However, P--3 showed long reflow distance because viscosity increasing and film shrinkage could be prevented and big reflow cause by baking. Basically, these results suggest P- have capability of high 377
6 J. Photopolym. Sci. Technol., Vol. 3, No. 3, 17 planarization compared to thermal curing Planarity performance Table 3 shows film thickness bias on topography substrate in each step. Additionally, X-SEM images of T--1 are shown in Fig. 4 and P--3 are shown in Fig. 5. In case of T--1, open/dense bias (Bias-1) and was 83 nm and center/edge bias on big trench (Bias-) was 35 nm after baking. However, the both bias were not good enough for planarity performance although the bias improved compared to before baking. Therefore, it is difficult to achieve high planarization because reflow competitively occur together viscosity increasing and film shrinkage. On the other hand, the film thickness bias of P- -3 showed 16 nm at Bias-1 and 4nm at Bias- after baking. The both film thickness bias were very smaller than T--1 and showed good planarity performance in spite of bigger bias before baking. Besides, the both bias after UV exposure were almost same as after baking. The trend was similar to P--1 and P-- but the both bias were smaller before baking. Therefore, P- can achieve high planarization because of big reflow during baking. Moreover, the planarization was kept after photo curing because of almost no film shrinkage during UV exposure. Additionally, these P- also showed good via filling property without void on 5 nm trench patterns. 4. Conclusion We developed novel photo curing which applied photo cross-linking system by using short wavelength UV light in order to satisfy high planarity, but not thermal curing which applied conventional thermal cross-linking system. Conventional thermal curing are difficult to achieve good planarization because viscosity increasing cause poor reflow property and outgas which came from thermal cross-linker cause big film shrinkage during baking. However, our P- including photo cross-linking units in main resin can cause great reflow property for planarity improvement because viscosity increasing and film shrinkage can be prevented during baking. Moreover, P- can be kept high planarization after photo curing because film shrinkage can be also inhibited during UV exposure. Therefore, our examination results in this paper proved P- are useful under layer materials for multiple patterning process which is needed high planarity performance. In the future, we will continue to develop and provide new P- materials to meet the requirements of N5 generation and beyond device manufacturing. References 1. Y. Wei, M. Glodde, H. Yusuff, M.
