MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0038] Herein after, the preferred examples of the present disclosure and comparative examples will be described. However, the preferred examples described below are presented only for illustrative purposes and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.

Example 1

[0039] A process solution composition for EUV photolithography to lower a photoresist pattern collapse level was prepared using a method described below. The composition included 0.001% by weight of fluoroacrylic carboxylate, 0.0001% by weight of bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, and 0.001% by weight of 1,2,3-propanetriol.

[0040] 0.001% by weight of fluoroacrylic carboxylate, 0.0001% by weight of bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, and 0.001% by weight of 1,2,3-propanetriol were added to the balance being distilled water, and then stirred for 6 hours. The mixture was filtered with a 0.01-um filter to remove impurity of fine particles. Thus, a process solution composition for lowering a photoresist pattern defect level was obtained.

Examples 2 to 65

[0041] Process solution compositions for lowering a photoresist pattern defect level were prepared in the same manner as described in Example 1, according to the composition ratios specified in Tables 1 to 16.

Comparative Example 1

[0042] Distilled water to be used as a cleaning liquid in the last stage of a development process among typical semiconductor device manufacturing processes was prepared.

Comparative Examples 2 to 19

[0043] For comparison with Examples, process liquid compositions were prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, according to the component ratios specified in Tables 1 to 16.

Experimental Examples 1 to 65 and Comparative Experimental Examples 1 to 19

[0044] A chemically amplified PHS acrylate hydrate hybrid EUV resist was applied by spin coating on a 12-inch silicon wafer (manufactured by SK Siltron) and baked at 110° C. for 60 seconds by soft baking to form a resist film with a thickness of 40 nm. The resist film on the wafer was exposed through an 18-nm mask (line:space=1:1) in an EUV exposure apparatus, and the wafer was baked (PEB) at 110° C. for 60 seconds. Then, the resist film was developed by puddle development with a 2.38% tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) aqueous solution for 40 seconds. Deionized water (DI water) was poured into a puddle of developer on the wafer, and the wafer was rotated with DI water being continuously poured until the puddle of the developer was replaced with a puddle of DI water. The rotation of the water was stopped with the puddle of DI water present on the wafer. Subsequently, the rinse compositions of Experimental Examples 1 to 65 and Comparative Examples 2 to 19 were poured into the puddle of DI water on the wafer, and the wafer was rotated to be dried at high speed.

[0045] Measurements of pattern lifting defect levels were performed on the silicon wafers on which patterns are formed using the compositions prepared in Examples 1 to 65 and Comparative Examples 1 to 19. The resulting measurements were denoted as Experimental Examples 1 to 65 and Comparative Experimental Examples 1 to 19. The measurement results are shown in Table 17.

[0046] (1) Checking of Pattern Lifting Prevention

[0047] After exposure energy was split, among a total of 89 blocks, the number of blocks in which a pattern did not collapse was determined using a critical dimension-scanning electron microscope (CD-SEM, manufactured by Hitachi).

[0048] (2) Transparency

[0049] Transparency of each of the prepared process liquid compositions was checked with the naked eye and was marked as “transparent” or “opaque”.

Experimental Examples 1 to 65 and Comparative Experimental Examples to 19

[0050] The pattern lifting defect level and transparency were determined for silicon wafers on which patterns were formed using the compositions of Examples 1 to 65 and Comparative Examples 1 to 19. The measurement results are denoted as Experimental Examples 1 to 65 and Comparative Experimental Examples 1 to 19 and are shown in Table 17.

[0051] (1) Evaluation of Effect of Preventing Pattern Lifting

[0052] After exposure energy was split, among a total of 89 blocks, the number of blocks in which a pattern did not collapse was determined using a critical dimension-scanning electron microscope (CD-SEM, manufactured by Hitachi).

[0053] (2) Transparency

[0054] Transparency of each of the prepared process liquid compositions was checked with the naked eye and was marked as “transparent” or “opaque”.
