HSQ Dose Test

Resist info

  • we used a 10 % HSQ resist for a dose test. The resist info sheet could be found her.
  • spinning: in labspin 3000rpm for 40s with 2s ramp (1500 acceleration) then bake for 2 min at 165 C
  • Exposure: At 12nA ap6 (spot size 10 nm) in JEOL 9500
    • Dose test with structures (3x3)
    • Develop for 90s using manual TMAH developer
    • Optical and SEM images and analysis  

Results

Below is overview optical images of the developed pattern:

SEM images were recorded and analyzed from the structure shown below: The numbers indicate the line width and pitch.


The measured and designed critical dimension are plotted vs the doses below:
