본 발명은 포토레지스트 중합체 및 이를 함유하는 포토레지스트 조성물에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 248㎚ 및 193㎚ 파장에서의 광흡수도가 낮아 고집적 반도체 소자의 미세회로를 제조할 때 원자외선 영역의 광원을 이용한 포토리소그래피 공정에 매우 유용하게 사용될 수 있는 포토레지스트 중합체 및 이를 함유하는 포토레지스트 조성물에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a photoresist polymer and a photoresist composition containing the same. More specifically, the light absorption in the wavelengths of 248 nm and 193 nm is low. It relates to a photoresist polymer and a photoresist composition containing the same which can be very usefully used in the photolithography process.
ArF용 포토레지스트로 이용되기 위해서는 193㎚ 파장에서 광 흡수도가 낮아야 하고, 에칭내성과 기판에 대한 접착성이 우수하여야 하며, 2.38wt% 및 2.6wt% 테트라메틸암모늄하이드록사이드(TMAH) 수용액으로 현상이 가능해야 하는 등의 많은 요건을 충족시켜야 한다.In order to be used as a photoresist for ArF, the light absorption at the wavelength of 193nm should be low, the etching resistance and the adhesion to the substrate should be excellent, and the solution of 2.38wt% and 2.6wt% tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) Many requirements must be met, such as a phenomenon that must be possible.
현재까지의 주된 연구방향은 248㎚ 및 193㎚에서 높은 투명성이 있으며, 에 칭내성이 노볼락 수지와 같은 수준의 수지를 탐색하는 것이었다. 현재 반도체 소자의 회로가 점점 미세화되고 요구되는 포토레지스트의 두께가 낮아짐에 따라 라인 가장자리 거칠음 (Line Edge Roughness : 이하, 'LER'이라 약칭함)이 큰 문제로 대두되고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 ArF 포토레지스트들은 기존의 KrF나 I-라인 포토레지스트에 비해 LER이 더 심한 경향을 보이는 문제점이 있다.The main research direction to date has been to search for resins having high transparency at 248 nm and 193 nm, and etching resistance at the same level as the novolak resin. As the circuits of semiconductor devices become more miniaturized and the required thickness of the photoresist decreases, line edge roughness (hereinafter, abbreviated as "LER") is a big problem. However, most ArF photoresists have a problem that LER tends to be more severe than conventional KrF or I-line photoresists.
본 발명의 목적은 248㎚ 및 193㎚ 파장에서의 광흡수도가 낮아 고집적 반도체 소자의 미세회로를 제조할 때 원자외선 영역의 광원을 이용한 포토리소그래피 공정에 매우 유용하게 사용될 수 있는 신규의 포토레지스트 중합체 및 이를 함유하는 포토레지스트 조성물을 제공하는 것이다.An object of the present invention is a novel photoresist polymer which can be very useful for photolithography process using a light source in the far ultraviolet region when manufacturing microcircuits of highly integrated semiconductor devices with low light absorption at wavelengths of 248 nm and 193 nm.

전술한 바와 같이, 본 발명의 포토레지스트 중합체는 용해억제형 포지티브 중합체로서, 노광공정시 노광에 의해 포토레지스트 중합체가 빛에 노출되면 화학반응을 거쳐 현상액에 잘 녹는 화합물로 변하기 때문에 빛을 받은 노광영역은 현상액에 녹고, 빛을 받지 않은 비노광영역에는 포토레지스트 중합체가 그대로 존재하기 때문에 현상액에 녹지 않아 패턴으로 남게 된다.As described above, the photoresist polymer of the present invention is a dissolution inhibiting positive polymer, and is exposed to light because the photoresist polymer is exposed to light by exposure during the exposure process, so that the photoresist polymer is converted into a compound that is well soluble in a developing solution through chemical reaction. The silver melts in the developer and remains unpatterned in the developer because the photoresist polymer is present in the non-exposed areas that do not receive light.
