    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent interaction between a photoresist layer and an immersion fluid in a immersion lithography system and to prevent contaminants in the immersion fluid from contaminating an integrated circuit being fabricated.
    SOLUTION: The method for forming an image in a photoresist layer includes: a step of providing a substrate; a step (S12) of forming a photoresist layer over the substrate; a step (S16) of forming a contamination gettering topcoat layer over the photoresist layer, the contamination gettering topcoat layer including contains one or more polymers and one or more cation complexing agents; a step of exposing the photoresist layer to actinic radiation; and a step of removing an exposed region of the photoresist layer or an unexposed region of the photoresist layer. The contamination gettering topcoat layer includes one or more polymers, one or more cation complexing agents, and a casting solvent.

    Abstract: A topcoat material for applying on top of a photoresist material is disclosed. The topcoat material comprises a polymer which is sparingly soluble or insoluble in water at a temperature of about 25° C. or below but soluble in water at a temperature of about 60° C. or above. The polymer contains poly vinyl alcohol monomer unit and a poly vinyl acetate or poly vinyl ether monomer unit having the following polymer structure: wherein R is an aliphatic or alicyclic radical; m and n are independently integers, and are the same or different; and p is zero or 1. The topcoat material may be used in lithography processes, wherein the topcoat material is applied on a photoresist layer. The topcoat material is particularly useful in immersion lithography techniques using water as the imaging medium. The topcoat material of the present invention are also useful for immersion lithography employing organic liquid as immersion medium.

    Abstract: A topcoat material for applying on top of a photoresist material is disclosed. The topcoat material comprises at least one solvent and a polymer which has a dissolution rate of at least 3000 Å/second in aqueous alkaline developer. The polymer contains a hexafluoroalcohol monomer unit comprising one of the following two structures: wherein n is an integer. The topcoat material may be used in lithography processes, wherein the topcoat material is applied on a photoresist layer. The topcoat material is preferably insoluble in water, and is therefore particularly useful in immersion lithography techniques using water as the imaging medium.
