Abstract

The invention relates to a chemical amplification photoresist compositions which are each prepared by taking a series of molecular glass compounds, which take tetraphenyl furan, tetraphenyl pyrrole, tetraphenyl thiophene, pentaphenylpyridine, tetraphenyl bisphenol A and calixarene bisphenol A, as cores as main body materials and taking a photoacid generator, a solvent and the like as auxiliary materials through combination. The photoresist composition is spin-coated on a substrate to prepare a photoresist film with uniform thickness, and the photoresist film is applied to ultraviolet light source exposure of 200-450nm, and is particularly suitable for far-field and near-field photoetching technologies, such as 365nm I line photoetching, 248nm deep ultraviolet photoetching, 436nm G line photoetching and the like, such as an ultraviolet exposure machine, 365nm laser direct writing near-field photoetching, 365nm laser interference photoetching and other ultraviolet photoetching technologies.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a variety of chemically amplified photoresist composition formulations with molecular glass as the main material, supplemented with photoacid generators, solvents, etc., which are applied to the exposure of 200-450nm ultraviolet light sources, especially for 365nm I-line lithography, 248nm deep ultraviolet lithography, 436nm G-line lithography and other far-field and near-field lithography technologies, such as ultraviolet exposure machine, 365nm laser direct writing near-field lithography, 365nm laser interference lithography and other ultraviolet lithography technologies . Background technique [0002] Ultraviolet lithography is a method commonly used in industry and scientific research to prepare submicron structures. It uses a mercury lamp light source or a 365nm laser light source. The light source is stable and low cost, and it is the best choice for submicron structure preparation technology. The exposure methods includ...
