3 LITHOGRAPHIC PERFORMANCE OF RECENT DUV PHOTORESISTS Bob Streefkerk, Koen van Ingen Schenau and Corine Buijk ASM Lithography B.V., De Run 1110, NL-5503 LA Veldhoven, the Netherlands Abstract Commercially available photoresists from the major photoresist vendors are investigated using a PAS 5500/300 wafer stepper, a 31.1 mm diameter field size high throughput wafer stepper with variable NA capability up to The critical dimension (CD) investigated is 0.25 µm and lower for dense and isolated lines and 0.25 µm for dense contact holes. The photoresist process performance is quantified by measuring exposure-defocus (ED) windows for a specific resolution using a CD SEM. Photoresists that are comparable with or better than APEX-E with RTC top coat, which is the current base line process for lines and spaces imaging performance, are Clariant AZ-DX1300 and Shin Etsu SEPR-4103PB50. Most recent photoresists have much improved delay performance when compared to APEX without top coat. Improvement, when an organic BARC is applied, depends on the actual photoresist characteristics. The optimal photoresist found for 0.25 µm contact holes is TOK DP015 C. This process operates at optimal conditions. 1. Introduction In this paper, not only are the characteristics of DUV photoresists determined but also the different requirements that a stepper manufacturer has with respect to photoresist processes are discussed. DUV photoresists are evaluated for their imaging performance on DUV (248 nm) wafer steppers and scanners; that is, the ASML PAS 5500/300 stepper and the PAS 5500/500 step and scan system. The PAS 5500/300 is a wafer stepper with a 31.1 mm diameter field, automatically variable NA (up to 0.63) and coherence (up to 0.85) and the possibility for both conventional and annular illumination without loss of intensity. The PAS 5500/500 is a step and scan system with a 26 x 33 mm field and the same illumination characteristics as the PAS 5500/300. All experimental work was performed on a PAS 5500/300 but newly selected photoresists should also be capable of being used for scanner technology. This paper discusses first the requirements for a DUV photoresist process followed by the experimental set up and the experimental results for lines and spaces and contact holes. Further author information bob.streefkerk@asml.nl, telephone: , fax DUV photoresist requirements For stepper suppliers, the use of photoresist processes differs from the typical use in a fab. One of the most demanding requirements for a process within ASML is the use for analysis of system performance at the specified resolution. The lens performance test, internally referred to as lens qualification, is done on standalone exposure tools and wafers must be transported back and forth from the track; the exposure tools and wafer tracks are not interfaced. The wafers undergo delays before and after exposure of up to half an hour and are exposed to the unfiltered environment. The substrates for the photoresists are polished silicon wafers, without inorganic or organic antireflective coatings, are ultraflat and, thus, without topography. It is desirable to use a simple process and, therefore, a BARC is not used. Generally, these ultraflat silicon wafers are re-used for subsequent lens qualifications. A typical PAS 5500/300 lens qualification is performed with dense (1:1) lines and spaces for imaging testing. Photoresist vendors tend to develop dedicated photoresists for use on either inorganic or organic BARCs or bare silicon [1], either for dense or isolated structures, for lines and spaces or contact holes. In this paper, only typical dense photoresists are investigated. 1
4 Because of the distance between the exposure tool to be qualified and the wafer track where the wafer is processed, the delay effects play a very big role; the contamination levels are a critical concern to ASML (see Figure 1). Thus, the photoresist should not be significantly sensitive to delay or contamination. Although the exposure tool and the wafer track are charcoal filtered, the (un)exposed wafer can be exposed to the environment during transport. concentration in ppbv Figure 1 ammonia concentration in ppbv at ASML Veldhoven 10:45:50 17:55:50 01:05:50 08:15:50 15:25:50 22:35:50 05:45:51 12:55:52 20:05:52 03:15:52 10:25:52 17:35:53 00:45:53 07:55:54 15:05:54 22:15:54 05:25:54 12:35:54 time in hours An example of ammonia concentration in the Netherlands as measured by an ETG meter The depth of focus (DOF) and the CD uniformity over the image field are usually measured during lens qualification. Because it is desirable to test only the lens component of the CD uniformity budget, the influence of the photoresist process should be at a minimum. Therefore, the CD change, due to contamination effects and post exposure bake (PEB) variations should be as low as possible. For optimal CD uniformity, it is also important to use the photoresist process at its optimal condition, at isofocal position. The target CD and the photoresist CD with the highest depth of focus are, normally, different; this isofocal bias can be as high as 50 nm at wafer level. The photoresist process should have a low isofocal bias to have a small difference between the target and the photoresist isofocal CD. Another requirement is the photospeed of the photoresist. A step and scan system needs to be tested at full performance for lines and spaces. Hence, the photoresist should have an exposure dose, at the resolution limit, of less than or equal to 17 mj/cm 2. I ILL For future requirements and optimal flexibility of use, the photoresist should be compatible with and give acceptable results on a BARC. Similarly, a good performance on both dense and isolated lines is, preferably, required. Finally, the photoresist to be selected should have at least the imaging performance of the process already in use at ASML; that is, APEX-E with a protective top coat. Imaging performance is characterized by depth of focus and exposure latitude. The requirements for this very versatile lines and spaces photoresist are summarized below: - Resolution photospeed: exposure dose < 17 mj/cm 2 for 0.25, and µm lines and spaces, - Process sensitivity: CD sensitivity to PEB < 5 nm/ C, - Isofocal bias for dense lines < 10% of the nominal CD, - Depth of focus 10% exposure latitude (EL) comparable to APEX, - Contamination sensitivity without RTC: < 5 nm/half hour in 20 ppb NH 3 environment, - Iso-dense bias < 20 nm, - BARC compatible (future requirements) but also compatible with highly reflective substrates, - Acceptable behavior for both dense and isolated lines. The contact holes photoresist has only the requirements of DOF and contamination sensitivity. 3. Experiments 3.1. Experimental set up The exposure tool used was a PAS 5500/300 wafer stepper. For 0.25 and µm lines and spaces, an NA of 0.57 and a σ of 0.75 was used, while, for µm lines and spaces, an NA of 0.63 and an annular condition of σ = 0.75/045 was used. For contact hole testing, the NA was 0.5 and σ was 0.85/0.55. For photoresist processing, a FSI Polaris 2000 process cluster (proximity bake, sealed HMDS modules) was used. Both the stepper and the process cluster were filtered by Donaldson active charcoal filters. The stepper and process cluster were not interfaced. 2
5 Coat thickness and uniformity were measured on a Tencor UV1050. For lines and spaces, a coat thickness was chosen at the maximal incoupling condition for reflectivity (E min ). For contact holes, both minimal and maximal incouplings were examined. An aspect ratio between thickness and CD of between 2.5 and 3.5 was selected. The environmental ammonia level was measured by a real time ETG monitor. Process conditions for four of the photoresists and the BARC are shown in Table 1.

For smaller linewidths, for contact holes and for profile testing, a low voltage tiltable Hitachi S7800 CD SEM or a Philips XL50 was used. For further analysis of the CD data, the software package ED Forest 1.14 (Linnovation Inc.) for lines and spaces was used; the process windows (and, thus, the calculated DOFs) were centered around the nominal CD. For analyzing the contact holes, Monolith (4.0 Shipley Co. Int.) was used; the energy was selected at which the CD at best focus was µm, such that the full curve fitted in + 10% of the nominal CD. The process windows constructed with both software packages are based on a tolerated CD variation of + 10%. shown in figure 3. In both cases, only one module in the center of the reticle was measured, which is, thus, also the center of the lens field Figure 2 Figure 3 Reticle Imagin reticle module Reticle contact hole module (SEM photograph) 3.2. Lines and spaces 0.25 Ten photoresists were tested in both t-boc (Shipley APEX-E), ESCAP (Shipley UV3 and UV6) and acetal (OLIN ARCH-200, TOK P007, 015 and 024, Shin Etsu SEPR 4103 PB50, Clariant AZ-DX1300 and Sumitomo PEK 101A6) families. Because the results of Shin Etsu and Clariant are most comparable with those of APEX-E, these photoresists are further discussed. Other photoresists are referred to as Photoresist 1, Photoresist 2 and so on. The calculated DOFs at 10% EL for dense lines and ODOFs (overlapping depth of focus) for dense and isolated 0.25 µm lines, for all photoresists, are shown in Figure 4 (for the full data set, see Table 2). H Module V I ILL The reticle, used for lines and spaces, was an ASML HV Imagin reticle that contains both fully isolated and dense features as indicated in figure 2. The reticle, used for contact hole testing, was a short step contact reticle of which the dense modules are typically as 3

For maximum process stability, it is desirable to maintain the photoresist process close to the isofocal condition. Therefore, ASML allows the nominal CD to be biased by a maximum of 10% during lens qualification, thus allowing a nominal CD between and µm. For semiconductor manufacturing, the CD change due to etching is also very important when interpreting the CD bias; therefore, in practice, it may be more Photoresist 3 Photoresist 4 Photoresist 5 isofocal position per resist AZ-DX1300 Photoresist 1 Photoresist 2 Photoresist 3 Photoresist 4 Photoresist 5 Photoresist 6 Photoresist 6 Photoresist 7 I ILL Photoresist 7 I ILL appropriate to bias the reticle CD [5], [7]. The performance of Shin Etsu SEPR 4103 PB50 and Clariant AZ-DX1300 are comparable to the DOF performance of APEX; for the lens qualification of the PAS 5500/300 (0.25 µm resolution) the DOF requirement is dominant. The isofocal bias is, however, rather on the high side for both photoresists and will be further examined. The measured DOFs at 10% EL for dense lines and ODOFs for dense and isolated µm lines, for all photoresists, are shown in Figure 6 (see also Table 3). DOF Figure 6 APEX-E DOF@10%EL µm lines SEPR-4103PB50 AZ-DX1300 DOF dense lines ODOF dense & isolated lines DOF at 10% EL for µm lines The trends are consistent with those of 0.25 µm lines and spaces. As the resolved CD decreases, a shake out of photoresists occurs. The PAS 5500/500 system imaging qualification is performed at this resolution; in this case, not only is the isofocal CD a dominant requirement but also the exposure latitude (EL). These are relatively high for these photoresists (16% for Shin Etsu and 13% for Clariant at a DOF of 0.8 µm). For µm screening, the Hitachi S-7800, in manual mode, was used for measurements. Data on isolated lines behavior for µm was not collected. Overlap of process window between dense and isolated structures is reported to be very small [2], [5]. Optical proximity correction (OPC) of the reticle is required for µm imaging. Photoresist 3 Photoresist 4 Photoresist 6 Photoresist 7 I ILL 4
7 The results for µm lines, for all photoresists, are shown in Figure 7 (see also Table 4). resolution of 0.18 µm, a DOF greater than 1.1 µm can be achieved with APEX-E [4]. This questions the APEX-E data in this experiment. DOF maximal DOF µm dense lines DOF dense lines I ILL The isofocal CD varies significantly per photoresist: analogous to the 0.25 µm case for this resolution the isofocal bias varies by up to 14%. The same trend in positive or negative isofocal offset can be observed, as with 0.25 µm lines; it is not likely to be caused by a linearity issue APEX-E SEPR-4103PB50 AZ-DX1300 Photoresist 3 Photoresist 4 Photoresist 6 Photoresist 7 CD isofocal position per resist I ILL Figure 7 Maximal DOF for µm dense lines In this µm region, Clariant AZ DX1300 performs very well compared to other photoresists. Its resolution capability has been proven in literature [3]. SEM photographs of dense line performance are shown in Figure 8. The optical proximity effect can clearly be seen in these photographs. OPC is required. In contrast to these experiments, it has been found, with a PAS 5500/500 step and scan system, that, at a 0.14 Figure 9 APEX-E SEPR-4103PB50 AZ-DX1300 Photoresist 3 Photoresist 4 Photoresist 6 Isofocal positions per photoresist Photoresist 7 Limiting positions (5 bar) f = 0.2 µm best focus f = µm Limiting positions (3 bars left) Figure 8 f = 0.6 µm best focus f = µm Clariant DX µm dense lines performance (NA = 0.63, σ = 0.75/0.45, FT = 0.7 µm) 5
8 Delay time effects were investigated by exposing the wafers to the clean room air of which the average ammonia level was around ppb during the experiments. Delay time effects can be caused by intrinsic acid diffusion of the exposed photoresist and also by the neutralization of acid by environmental base gas. The delays between coat and expose (CED) and between expose and PEB (PED) were investigated for 0.25 µm dense lines. This led to the results of Figure 10 (see also Table 5) Figure 10 APEX-E effect of process delays on DOF performance SEPR-4103PB50 AZ-DX1300 reference DOF decrease by CED delay decrease by PED delay Effect of process delays on DOF performance Although APEX-E itself is very sensitive to delay effects, the use of the protective top coat layer showed no significant delay effects. Photoresists 1 and 2 are meant for use on antireflective substrates and the combination of standing waves and contamination effects led to severe T-topping [6] ; the results for these are, therefore, not found in the graph above. Most other photoresists are far less sensitive to delays than APEX-E without RTC. Only Shin Etsu CED delay needs more investigation because a significant effect was seen.

Where it is detrimental for APEX-E and of almost no influence for AZ-DX1300, it is required for Photoresist 6 because this photoresist is especially developed for use on a BARC CONTACT HOLE TESTING Seven photoresists were tested in both t-boc (Shipley APEX-E), ESCAP (Shipley UV3 and UV6) and acetal (TOK P007 and P015, Clariant AZ DX1200, JSR KRF TRA 694 and Sumitomo PEK 405) families. TOK DP015 is further detailed because this photoresist is the preferred photoresist within ASML. Other photoresists are referred to as photoresist 1, photoresist 2 and so on. Both the maximal and minimal incoupling conditions are tested. I ILL For a subset of photoresists, it is also investigated what the influence is of an organic bottom antireflective coating (BARC). In this case, Brewer Science DUV18L was used. The results are shown in Figure 11 6

DOF Figure 12 maximal DOF 0.25µm contact holes APEX-E2408 TOK DP015C Photoresist 8 Photoresist 1 Maximal DOF 0.25 µm contact holes It can be seen that, generally, the maximal incoupling condition (E min, based on reflectivity) results in better DOF. TOK DP015C was found to perform best on silicon substrates. The other candidate (Photoresist 8) with a similarly high DOF showed side lobing caused by standing waves. At these conditions, for TOK DP015, a total exposure-defocus window was determined, see also Figure 13.

The irregular shape of the contact hole visible on the reticle in Figure 3 is not printed at wafer level, as seen in Figure 15; these are circular as a result of the filtering of the image system. The process sensitivity of TOK DP015 has been investigated with respect to changes in soft bake temperature, PEB temperature and time and developer time. The results are given in the Figure 14. The middle setting of each parameter is the setting advised by the vendor. For each setting of a parameter, three measurements are supplied and are shown in the graph as open boxes.

Within the uniformity of the bake plate (± 0.3 C) no severe DOF decrease is to be expected. The process is, thus, robust 4. Conclusions In this paper, the performance of photoresists is examined for use, within ASML, for the lens qualification of PAS 5500/300 and PAS 5500/500 systems on bare silicon wafers. For commercially available photoresists, the performance of Clariant AZ-DX1300 and Shin Etsu SEPR 4103 PB50 is comparable to or better than APEX-E: for 0.25 µm dense lines and spaces; the 10% EL is respectively 1.2, 1.3 and 1.1 µm. For µm, the DOF is 1.1, 1.2 and 0.8 µm respectively. For µm, this is 0.7, 1.1 and 0.6 µm. To achieve 7

The isofocal bias of a photoresist differs by up to 24% from the target CD. Delay effects are generally much less than for APEX-E without top coat; only (effects of) 15% change in DOF are observed for some photoresists with 0.5 hour delay in an unfiltered environment. The use of a BARC on a bare silicon substrate does not always improve the DOF; this depends very much on the photoresist under consideration. For some photoresists, an antireflective coat is required. For dense 0.25 µm contact holes, best performance on bare silicon was found with TOK DP015; a maximal DOF of 1.6 µm was found, compared to 0.8 µm for APEX.
