Changes in the near edge X-ray absorption fine structure of hybrid organic-inorganic resists upon exposure [PDF]
We report on the near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy of hybrid organic-inorganic resists. These materials are nonchemically amplified systems based on Si, Zr, and Ti oxides, synthesized from organically modified precursors and

Evaluation of resist sensitivity in extreme ultraviolet/soft x-ray region for next-generation lithography [PDF]
At and below the 11 nm node, shortening the exposure wavelength to >10 nm (extreme ultraviolet (EUV)/soft x-ray region), especially at 6.6-6.8 nm, has been discussed as next-generation EUV lithography. In this study, dose/sensitivities of typical resists

X-ray lenses fabricated by deep x-ray lithography [PDF]
Refractive x-ray lenses have been fabricated using deep x-ray lithography. Lenses were produced directly in 1- to 6-mm-thick sheets of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) with as many as 100 cylindrical lenses along the optical axis. The fabrication process consists of exposing the PMMA sheets to high-energy synchrotron radiation through a mask of 50-micron ...
