Basic requirements for good patterns using extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL) are sensitivity, resolution, line edge roughness (LER), outgassing, etch resistance, defect density, and reproducibility. Among them, it has been proved that resolution, LER, and sensitivity (RLS) are interdependent with each other. The trade-off between RLS pose a critical challenge in the race towards device downscaling to 1 nm node. LER is the most important consideration to determine the manner in which EUVL will be employed. Recently, we develop a new EUV dry resist with organic-inorganic hybrid multilayer structures vertically tailored with several functional layers by using molecular layer deposition. Additionally, each layer includes a self-assembled organic monolayer to generate a vertical molecular wire structure. The hybrid multilayer resist shows high EUV sensitivity from the high EUV absorbing and reactive layers there. Furthermore, the vertical molecular wire structure of the hybrid resist generates exceptionally low LER.
