Abstract:
A method according to one embodiment comprises forming a thin film layer; forming a hardmask layer above the thin film layer, the hardmask layer comprising laminated layers of diamond-like carbon; removing a portion of the hardmask layer; and removing a portion of the thin film layer that is unprotected by the hardmask layer. A method according to another embodiment comprises forming a thin film layer; forming a patterned hardmask layer above the thin film layer, the hardmask layer comprising laminated layers of diamond-like carbon; and implanting a material into a portion of the thin film layer that is unprotected by the patterned hardmask layer. Additional methods are disclosed.
