Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an anti-reflective composition and a method of using the composition to form a circuit. SOLUTION: The composition comprises a polymer dissolved or dispersed in a solvent system. The polymer of the composition is generated by reacting an organic compound with a polymeric metal alkoxide, and the polymeric metal alkoxide includes a recurring unit having formula (I), wherein M is a metal individually selected from a group composed of titanium, zirconium, silicon and aluminum, each L is individually selected from a group consisting of diketo and alkoxide ligands, and the organic compound includes a functional group for coordinating with M of the polymeric metal alkoxide.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an anti-reflective coating composition that does not crosslink prior to a bake stage in microlithographic processes so as to solve problems of spin bowl incompatibility and stability of an anti-reflective coating. SOLUTION: The anti-reflective composition includes a polymer dissolved or dispersed in a solvent system, a crosslinking agent, a light attenuating compound and a strong acid. The polymer is selected from a group consisting of acrylic polymers, polyesters, epoxy novolacs, polysaccharides, polyethers, polyimides and mixtures thereof. The crosslinking agent is selected from a group consisting of amino resin and epoxy resin. The light attenuating compound is selected from a group consisting of phenolic compounds, carboxylic acid, phosphoric acid, cyano compounds, benzene, naphthalene and anthracene. The composition contains the strong acid by less than 1.0 mass% based upon the total mass of the composition taken as 100 mass%. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
Anti-reflective compositions and methods of using these compositions to form circuits are provided. The compositions comprise a polymer dissolved or dispersed in a solvent system. In a preferred embodiment, the polymers include a light-attenuating moiety having a structure selected from the group consisting of:where:each of X and Y is individually selected from the group consisting of electron withdrawing groups;R is selected from the group consisting of alkyls and aryls; andR is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyls.The resulting compositions are spin bowl compatible (i.e., they do not crosslink prior to the bake stages of the microlithographic processes or during storage at room temperature), are wet developable, and have superior optical properties.
Abstract:
Anti-reflective coating compositions having improved etchrate, inter alia, are prepared from certain high molecular weight polymers and copolymers, particularly glycidyl methacrylate.
