Abstract
In this work, we compared the performance of BF imaging in combination with a spin-on MOR and DF with CAR to generate hexagonal contact holes and understand the advantages obtained with each patterning approach in terms of dose and LCDU. CH patterns of pitches 38 and 34 nm were generated using SE EUV and LCDU decomposition was done to identify the main contributors to LCDU for both cases. Since the inherent properties of both resists are significantly different, we transferred the patterns into a relevant layer to do the final comparison AEI at pitch 38nm.
