Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the requirements of the semiconductor industry have become more demanding in terms of resolution and speed it has been necessary to push photoresist materials far beyond the capabilities previously envisioned. Currently there is significant worldwide research effort in to so called Next Generation Lithography techniques such as EUV lithography and multibeam electron beam lithography. These developments in both the industrial and the academic lithography arenas have led to the proliferation of numerous novel approaches to resist chemistry and ingenious extensions of traditional photopolymers. Currently most texts in this area focus on either lithography with perhaps one or two chapters on resists, or on traditional resist materials with relatively little consideration of new approaches. This book therefore aims to bring together the worlds foremost resist development scientists from the various community to produce in one place a definitive description of the many approaches to lithography fabrication. - Assembles up-to-date information from the world's premier resist chemists and technique development lithographers on the properties and capabilities of the wide range of resist materials currently under investigation - Includes information on processing and metrology techniques - Brings together multiple approaches to litho pattern recording from academia and industry in one place

Download or read book A Study of Helium Ion Induced Secondary Electron Production written by Ranjan Ramachandra and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a popular instrument used for imaging because of its high resolution images it can generate. However the new scanning helium ion scanning microscope (SHIM) can produce higher resolution and better contrast images than the conventional SEM. In both the microscopes secondary electron (SE) signal is the most widely used imaging mode because of their high yield efficiency and their high spatial resolution. In order to be able to properly evaluate the relative strengths and weaknesses of electron induced SE (eSE) and ion induced SE (iSE) imaging a detailed model able to quantify them is required. Unlike in the case of eSE where there have been considerable amount of experimental and theoretical studies, there have been very few for iSE. A detailed Monte Carlo simulation of helium ion beam interaction with solids, IONiSE (Ion Induced SE) was developed. IONiSE is designed to provide data on questions such as the variation of the incident beam range, and the yield [delta subscript iSE] of iSE, as a function of the He+ ion energy and choice of sample, as well as the behavior of iSE yield with surface topography, spatial resolution of the iSE. This simulation employs a combination of 'semi empirical' model for secondary electron production, and the SRIM routines that describe ion stopping power, scattering, and transport. This is a parametric model and hence requires that the material dependent parameters be determined by fitting to experimental yield data. This model shows predictable behavior for wide range of elements and it can be applied with equal ease to even complex compounds. The model can also be used for other applications like energy deposition profiles in ion beam lithography, critical dimension metrology using helium ions, ion beam deposition and etching studies and ion beam induced current in semiconductor devices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Success in the fabrication of structures at the nanometer length scale has opened up a new horizon to condensed matter physics: the study of quantum phenomena in confined boxes, wires, rings, etc. A new class of electronic devices based on this physics has been proposed, with the promise of a new functionality for ultrafast and/or ultradense electronic circuits. Such applications demand highly sophisticated fabrication techniques, the crucial one being lithography. Nanolithography contains updated reviews by major experts on the well established techniques -- electron beam lithography (EBL), X-ray lithography (XRL), ion beam lithography (IBL) -- as well as on emergent techniques, such as scanning tunnelling lithography (STL).

Download or read book Monte Carlo Modeling for Electron Microscopy and Microanalysis written by David C. Joy and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1995-04-13 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes for the first time how Monte Carlo modeling methods can be applied to electron microscopy and microanalysis. Computer programs for two basic types of Monte Carlo simulation are developed from physical models of the electron scattering process--a single scattering program capable of high accuracy but requiring long computation times, and a plural scattering program which is less accurate but much more rapid. Optimized for use on personal computers, the programs provide a real time graphical display of the interaction. The programs are then used as the starting point for the development of programs aimed at studying particular effects in the electron microscope, including backscattering, secondary electron production, EBIC and cathodo-luminescence imaging, and X-ray microanalysis. The computer code is given in a fully annotated format so that it may be readily modified for specific problems. Throughout, the author includes numerous examples of how such applications can be used. Students and professionals using electron microscopes will want to read this important addition to the literature.
