摘要： A hardmask stack is comprised of alternating layers of doped amorphous carbon and undoped amorphous carbon. The undoped amorphous carbon layers serve as buffer layers that constrain the effects of compressive stress within the doped amorphous carbon layers to prevent delamination. The stack is provided with a top capping layer. The layer beneath the capping layer is preferably undoped amorphous carbon to reduce photoresist poisoning. An alternative hardmask stack is comprised of alternating layers of capping material and amorphous carbon. The amorphous carbon layers may be doped or undoped. The capping material layers serve as buffer layers that constrain the effects of compressive stress within the amorphous carbon layers to prevent delamination. The top layer of the stack is formed of a capping material. The layer beneath the top layer is preferably undoped amorphous carbon to reduce photoresist poisoning. The lowest layer of the hardmask stack is preferably amorphous carbon to facilitate easy removal of the hardmask stack from underlying materials by an ashing process.

摘要： A silicon oxide stress relief portion is provided between an amorphous carbon hardmask and a polysilicon layer to be etched to form a gate line. The stress relief portion relieves stress between the hardmask and the polysilicon, thereby reducing the risk of delamination of the hardmask prior to patterning of the polysilicon. The stress relief portion may be trimmed prior to patterning and used as an etch mask for patterning the polysilicon. The amorphous carbon hardmasked may be trimmed prior to patterning the stress relief portion to achieve a further reduction in gate line width.

摘要： A method of forming a gate structure is provided. In the method, a nitride layer is formed on a gate material layer. An ultra-thin photoresist layer is formed on the nitride layer. The ultra-thin photoresist layer is patterned with short wavelength radiation to define a pattern for the gate. The ultra-thin photoresist layer is used as a mask during a first etch step to transfer the gate pattern to the nitride layer. The first etch step includes an etch chemistry that is selective to the nitride layer over the ultra-thin photoresist layer. The nitride layer is used as a hard mask during a second etch step to form the gate by transferring the gate pattern to the gate material layer via the second etch step.

摘要： A method of forming a via structure is provided. In the method, a dielectric layer is formed on an anti-reflective coating (ARC) layer covering a first metal layer; and an amorphous silicon layer is formed on the dielectric layer. An ultra-thin photoresist layer is formed on the amorphous silicon layer, and the ultra-thin photoresist layer is patterned with short wavelength radiation to define a pattern for a via. The patterned ultra-thin photoresist layer is used as a mask during a first etch step to transfer the via pattern to the amorphous silicon layer. The first etch step includes an etch chemistry that is selective to the amorphous silicon layer over the ultra-thin photoresist layer and the dielectric layer. The amorphous silicon layer is employed as a hard mask during a second etch step to form a contact hole corresponding to the via pattern by etching portions of the dielectric layer.

摘要： A polysilicon structure is fabricated with a reduced length that is beyond that achievable from photolithography by using a silicidation anneal to control the reduced length. Generally, the present invention includes a step of forming a masking polysilicon structure having a first predetermined length defined by sidewalls on ends of the first predetermined length of the masking polysilicon structure. The present invention also includes a step of depositing a layer of metal on the sidewalls of the masking polysilicon structure. The layer of metal has a predetermined thickness. The layer of metal reacts with the masking polysilicon structure at the sidewalls of the masking polysilicon structure in a silicidation anneal to form metal silicide. The masking polysilicon structure has a second predetermined length that is reduced from the first predetermined length when the metal silicide has consumed into the sidewalls of the masking polysilicon structure after the silicidation anneal. The second predetermined length depends on the predetermined thickness of the layer of metal deposited on the sidewalls of the masking polysilicon structure. The masking polysilicon structure has the second predetermined length and is used as a mask for etching a first layer of polysilicon to form the polysilicon structure from the first layer of polysilicon. The remaining polysilicon structure after this etch has the reduced length that is substantially equal to the second predetermined length of the masking polysilicon structure. The present invention may be used to particular advantage when the polysilicon structure having the reduced length forms a gate electrode of a MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor).

摘要： To reduce the width of a MOSFET gate, the gate is formed with a hardmask formed thereupon. An isotropic etch is then performed to trim the gate in order to reduce the width of the gate. The resulting gate may be formed with a width that is narrower than a minimum width achievable solely through conventional projection lithography techniques.

摘要： A method for an integrated circuit includes the use of an amorphous carbon ARC mask. A layer of amorphous carbon material is deposited above a layer of conductive material, and a layer of anti-reflective coating (ARC) material is deposited over the layer of amorphous carbon material. The layer of amorphous carbon material and the layer of ARC material are etched to form a mask comprising an ARC material portion and an amorphous carbon portion. A feature may then be formed in the layer of conductive material by etching the layer of conductive material in accordance with the mask.
