Abstract
Recent advances in EUVL lithography is mainly centered on improving the RLS trade-off by employing new resist platforms, bulkier PAGs, EUV sensitizers etc. Among the several new kinds of PAGs proposed till date, the focus of development was mainly on the acid strength, compatibility with resin etc., whilst always retaining the mono, Di or tri phenyl chromophore of the PAG. Herein we report on the use of chromophore-less PAG for the patterning of EUVL resists. Resist performance using model acrylate and PHS based resist was studied. The patterned resists were characterized using SEM. Thermal stability of the PAG was compared with model chromophore containing PAG.
