Abstract:
The present invention relates to norbornene monomers with a novel functional group containing an organometal as shown in the following Formula (I) or (II), a photoresist containing its polymers, manufacturing method thereof, and a method of forming photoresist patterns.Unlike existing polymers for photoresist matrix, polymers made by norbornene monomers described in the present invention is a chemical amplification type induced by photosensitive acids and can result in difference in silicon content between the exposed area and unexposed area due to dissociation of side chain containing silicon. The difference in the silicon content results in different etch rate with respect to oxygen plasma which makes dry developing possible.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: Provided are a norbornene monomer, containing an organic metal, for producing a photoresist capable of forming pattern with high resolution in far ultraviolet range, the photoresist produced by using the norbornene monomer, and a method for forming the pattern of the photoresist. CONSTITUTION: The norbornene monomer represented by the formula(I) or (II) is produced by reacting an alcohol represented by the formula(XII) or (XIII) and a 2-chlorocarbonyl-5-norbornene derivative. The photoresist is produced by dissolving a polymer represented by the formula(III) or (IV) and a photoacid generator in a solvent, wherein the polymer is produced by using the norbornene monomer represented by the formula(I) or (II). And the method for forming the pattern of the photoresist comprises the steps of: forming a photoresist film by spreading the photoresist on a substrate; exposing the photoresist film by using an exposing mask; heat-treating the exposed resultant; etching the exposed parts of the photoresist film by a reactive ion etching method using an oxygen plasma. In the formula, R1-R10 are each hydrogen, C1-C4 alkyl, C1-C4 alkoxy, phenyl, or -MR3, wherein M is Si, Ge, Sn, or OSi, R is C1-C4 alkyl, C1-C4 alkoxy, phenyl, benzyl, or phenoxy, and n is the degree of polymerization being 1-100.
