Abstract:
Disclosed are polymers including as polymerized units one or more spirocyclic olefin monomer of the formulae I or Ia wherein A=CH ; G=C(Zâ), O, and NR ; R =H, (C -C )alkyl or substituted (C -C )alkyl; E and W are independently selected from C(Zâ), O and a chemical bond; Zâ=O; n=1; m=1; mâ=0; 1=0 to 5; and p=0 to 5; provided that when both E and W are C(Zâ), G is NR ; wherein T and L are taken together to form a double bond. These polymers are useful in photoresist compositions. Methods of making and using these polymers are also disclosed.

US Patent:
6749986, Jun 15, 2004
Filed:
Sep 8, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/948459
Inventors:
Gary N. Taylor - Northboro MA
Charles R. Szmanda - Westborough MA
Assignee:
Shipley Company, L.L.C. - Marlborough MA
International Classification:
G03F 7004
US Classification:
4302701, 430326, 430906, 430907
Abstract:
The present invention includes new polymers and use of such polymers as a resin component for photoresist compositions, particularly chemically-amplified positive-acting photoresist compositions. Polymers and resists of the invention are particularly useful for imaging with short wavelength radiation, such as sub-200 nm and preferably about 157 nm. Polymers of the invention contain one or more groups alpha to an acidic site that are substituted by one or more electron-withdrawing groups.

US Patent:
6787286, Sep 7, 2004
Filed:
Mar 19, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/101202
Inventors:
Charles R. Szmanda - Westborough MA
Anthony Zampini - Westborough MA
Assignee:
Shipley Company, L.L.C. - Marlborough MA
International Classification:
G03F 7039
US Classification:
4302701, 4302711, 430311, 430326, 430912
Abstract:
New photoresists are provides that are suitable for short wavelength imaging, particularly sub-170 nm such as 157 nm. Resists of the invention comprise a fluorine-containing polymer, a photoactive component, and a solvent component. Preferred solvents for use on the resists of the invention can maintain the resist components in solution and include one or more preferably two or more (i. e. blends) of solvents. In particularly preferred solvent blends of the invention, each blend member evaporates at substantially equal rates, whereby the resist composition maintains a substantially constant concentration of each blend member.
