Abstract: A negative-tone resist composition is provided that contains a free photoacid generator and a multifunctional polymer covalently bound to a photoacid-generating moiety, where the composition is substantially free of cross-linking agents. Multifunctional polymers useful in conjunction with the resist composition are also provided, as is a process for generating a resist image on a substrate using the present compositions and polymers.

Abstract: Photoactive polymer brush materials and methods for EUV photoresist patterning using the photoactive polymer brush materials are described. The photoactive polymer brush material incorporates a grafting moiety that can be immobilized at the substrate surface, a dry developable or ashable moiety, and a photoacid generator moiety, which are bound to a polymeric backbone. The photoacid generator moiety generates an acid upon exposure to EUV radiation acid at the interface, which overcomes the acid depletion problem to reduce photoresist scumming. The photoacid generator moiety can also facilitate cleavage of the photoactive polymer brush material from the substrate via an optional acid cleavable grafting functionality for the grafting moiety. The dry developable or ashable moiety facilitates complete removal of the photoactive brush material from the substrate in the event there is residue present subsequent to development of the chemically amplified EUV photoresist.

Abstract: A film layer comprising a high-chi (ϰ) block copolymer for self-assembly and a hexafluoroalcohol-containing surface active polymer (SAP) was prepared on a substrate surface that was neutral wetting to the domains of the self-assembled block copolymer. The block copolymer comprises at least one polycarbonate block and at least one other block (e.g., a substituted or unsubstituted styrene-based block). The film layer, whose top surface has contact with an atmosphere, self-assembles to form a lamellar or cylindrical domain pattern having perpendicular orientation with respect to the underlying surface. Other morphologies (e.g., islands and holes of height 1.0Lo) were obtained with films lacking the SAP. The SAP is preferentially miscible with, and lowers the surface energy of, the domain comprising the polycarbonate block.

Abstract: Hybrid pre-patterns were prepared for directed self-assembly of a given block copolymer capable of forming a lamellar domain pattern. The hybrid pre-patterns have top surfaces comprising independent elevated surfaces interspersed with adjacent recessed surfaces. The elevated surfaces are neutral wetting to the domains formed by self-assembly. Material below the elevated surfaces has greater etch-resistance than material below the recessed surfaces in a given etch process. Following other dimensional constraints of the hybrid pre-pattern described herein, a layer of the given block copolymer was formed on the hybrid pre-pattern. Self- assembly of the layer produced a lamellar domain pattern comprising self-aligned, unidirectional, perpendicularly oriented lamellae over the elevated surfaces, and parallel and/or perpendicularly oriented lamellae over recessed surfaces. The domain patterns displayed long range order along the major axis of the pre-pattern. The lamellar domain patterns are useful in forming transfer patterns comprising two-dimensional customized features.

Abstract: A one pot method of preparing cyclic carbonyl compounds comprising an active pendant pentafluorophenyl carbonate group is disclosed. The cyclic carbonyl compounds can be polymerized by ring opening methods to form ROP polymers comprising repeat units comprising a side chain pentafluorophenyl carbonate group. Using a suitable nucleophile, the pendant pentafluorophenyl carbonate group can be selectively transformed into a variety of other functional groups before or after the ring opening polymerization.
