以前,於IC(Integrated Circuit,積體電路)或大規模積體電路(Large Scale Integrated circuit,LSI)等的半導體元件的製造製程中,一直藉由使用光阻劑(photoresist)組成物的微影來進行微細加工。 伴隨著積體電路的高積體化,逐漸要求形成次微米(submicron)區域或四分之一微米(quarter micron)區域的超微細圖案。伴隨於此,曝光波長亦如自g射線至i射線、進而至準分子雷射光(KrF、ArF)般可見短波長化的傾向。進而,目前除了準分子雷射光以外,亦正在開發使用電子束或X射線、或者極紫外線(Extreme Ultra Violet,EUV)光的微影。 於此種現狀下,關於抗蝕劑組成物,已提出了各種構成,例如除了樹脂及光酸產生劑以外含有特定添加劑的抗蝕劑組成物亦已為人所知(參照專利文獻1)。 [現有技術文獻] 專利文獻In the past, in the manufacturing process of a semiconductor element such as an IC (Integrated Circuit) or a Large Scale Integrated Circuit (LSI), lithography using a photoresist composition has been used. For micro processing. Along with the high integration of integrated circuits, it is increasingly required to form ultra-fine patterns of submicron regions or quarter micron regions. Along with this, the exposure wavelength tends to be shorter than that of the z-ray to the i-ray and further to the excimer laser light (KrF, ArF). Further, in addition to excimer laser light, lithography using electron beam or X-ray or Extreme Ultra Violet (EUV) light is currently being developed. In the present state of the art, various compositions have been proposed for the resist composition. For example, a resist composition containing a specific additive in addition to a resin and a photoacid generator is known (refer to Patent Document 1). [Prior Art Literature] Patent Literature

[化4] [Chemical 4]

式中,X表示氧原子或硫原子,R表示氫原子或一價有機基。*表示結合鍵。In the formula, X represents an oxygen atom or a sulfur atom, and R represents a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic group. * indicates a bond.

藉此,尤其於形成超微細(例如線寬50 nm以下)的圖案時,可形成感度、解析性、粗糙度性能及圖案剖面形狀全部優異的圖案,其原因雖不確定,但推定如下。Therefore, in particular, when a pattern of ultrafine (for example, a line width of 50 nm or less) is formed, a pattern excellent in sensitivity, resolution, roughness performance, and pattern cross-sectional shape can be formed. The reason is not certain, but it is estimated as follows.

首先,所述通式(1)中的NC(=X)所表示的結構由於存在氮原子等,故例如與酯鍵相比較而極性更高。另外,化合物(A)具有兩個以上的此種高極性的結構。 因此可認為,於所形成的圖案中,化合物(A)提供多個極性非常高的部位,結果樹脂彼此經由此種高極性部位而相互作用,由此形成包含化合物(A)與本發明的感光化射線或感放射線性組成物可含有的樹脂(B)的疑似交聯結構。 而且推測,藉由所述疑似交聯結構,構成圖案的成分的凝聚性提高,藉此於超微細(例如線寬50 nm以下)的圖案中亦不易發生圖案的破壞等,解析性提高,圖案剖面形狀更優異。 另外推測,由於圖案中的樹脂(B)的凝聚性提高,化學增幅型抗蝕劑膜的曝光部中產生的酸過度擴散至未曝光部中的情況得到抑制,結果粗糙度性能優異。 另外,如上文所述,化合物(A)呈現出非常高的極性。結果化合物(A)與基板更牢固地密接,藉此圖案與基板的密接性提高,更不易發生圖案的倒塌,可認為這一情況亦是解析性提高的原因。 另外,曝光部中,所述擬交聯被局部破壞,添加劑成為樹脂的塑化劑。推測其結果為曝光部內的酸的擴散速度提高,感度提高。 進而,化合物(A)不具有酸交聯性基。藉此,於形成正型的圖案時亦不會負型化。另外可認為,因不易生成分解物,故不會發生由樹脂(B)的過疏化所致的Tg降低,進一步發揮所述擬交聯的效果。First, the structure represented by NC (=X) in the above formula (1) has a higher polarity because it has a nitrogen atom or the like, for example, compared with an ester bond. Further, the compound (A) has two or more such highly polar structures. Therefore, it is considered that in the formed pattern, the compound (A) provides a plurality of sites having a very high polarity, and as a result, the resins interact with each other via such a highly polar site, thereby forming the photosensitive compound containing the compound (A) and the present invention. The suspected crosslinked structure of the resin (B) which the ray or the radiation sensitive composition may contain. In addition, it is estimated that the cohesiveness of the components constituting the pattern is improved by the suspected crosslinked structure, whereby the pattern is less likely to be broken in the ultrafine (for example, a line width of 50 nm or less), and the resolution is improved. The cross-sectional shape is more excellent. In addition, it is estimated that the cohesiveness of the resin (B) in the pattern is improved, and the acid generated in the exposed portion of the chemically amplified resist film is excessively diffused into the unexposed portion, and the roughness performance is excellent. In addition, as described above, the compound (A) exhibits a very high polarity. As a result, the compound (A) adheres more strongly to the substrate, whereby the adhesion between the pattern and the substrate is improved, and the pattern collapse is less likely to occur, which is considered to be a cause of improvement in resolution. Further, in the exposed portion, the pseudo-crosslinking is partially broken, and the additive becomes a plasticizer of the resin. It is estimated that the diffusion rate of the acid in the exposed portion is improved, and the sensitivity is improved. Further, the compound (A) does not have an acid crosslinkable group. Thereby, it is not negatively formed when a positive pattern is formed. Further, it is considered that since the decomposition product is less likely to be formed, the decrease in Tg due to over-reduction of the resin (B) does not occur, and the effect of the pseudo-crosslinking is further exhibited.

The sensitized ray or the radiation sensitive composition of the present invention is preferably an ArF excimer laser, an electron beam or an extreme ultraviolet ray exposure. The sensitized ray or radiation sensitive composition of the present invention is preferably a resist composition, and may be a positive resist composition, or may be a negative resist composition, and may be alkaline.

<(A)具有兩個以上的通式(1)所表示的結構且不具有酸交聯性基的化合物> 如上文所述,本發明的感光化射線或感放射線性組成物含有(A)具有兩個以上的下述通式(1)所表示的結構且不具有酸交聯性基的化合物(以下亦稱為化合物(A))。<(A) A compound having two or more structures represented by the formula (1) and having no acid crosslinkable group> As described above, the sensitized ray or the radiation sensitive composition of the present invention contains (A) A compound having two or more structures represented by the following formula (1) and having no acid crosslinkable group (hereinafter also referred to as compound (A)).

[化5] [Chemical 5]

式中,X表示氧原子或硫原子,R表示氫原子或一價有機基。*表示結合鍵。In the formula, X represents an oxygen atom or a sulfur atom, and R represents a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic group. * indicates a bond.

如上所述,化合物(A)不具有酸交聯性基。即,化合物(A)並非交聯劑,不相當於後述的交聯劑(C)。此處,酸交聯性基可列舉公知的基團,具代表性的是可列舉羥基甲基及烷氧基甲基。 因此,於本發明的感光化射線或感放射線性組成物含有樹脂(B)的情形時,化合物(A)不藉由酸的作用而與樹脂(B)交聯。As described above, the compound (A) does not have an acid crosslinkable group. That is, the compound (A) is not a crosslinking agent and does not correspond to the crosslinking agent (C) described later. Here, the acid crosslinkable group may, for example, be a known group, and a hydroxymethyl group and an alkoxymethyl group are exemplified. Therefore, when the photosensitive ray or the radiation sensitive composition of the present invention contains the resin (B), the compound (A) is not crosslinked with the resin (B) by the action of an acid.

另外,較佳為通式(1)中的多個R中的至少一個為氫原子。 藉由多個R中的至少一個為氫原子,通式(1)所表示的結構的高極性不易受損,可充分地發揮本發明的效果。Further, it is preferred that at least one of the plurality of R in the formula (1) is a hydrogen atom. When at least one of the plurality of R is a hydrogen atom, the high polarity of the structure represented by the formula (1) is not easily impaired, and the effects of the present invention can be sufficiently exerted.

作為R的一價有機基較佳為碳數1~30,例如可列舉烷基、環烷基、芳基、芳烷基、烯基等。該些基團亦可更具有取代基。 取代基例如可列舉:烷基(碳數1~4)、鹵素原子、羥基、烷氧基(碳數1~4)、羧基、烷氧基羰基(碳數2~6)等,較佳為碳數8以下。The monovalent organic group of R is preferably a carbon number of 1 to 30, and examples thereof include an alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, and an alkenyl group. These groups may also have more substituents. Examples of the substituent include an alkyl group (having a carbon number of 1 to 4), a halogen atom, a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group (having a carbon number of 1 to 4), a carboxyl group, an alkoxycarbonyl group (having a carbon number of 2 to 6), and the like. The carbon number is 8 or less.

作為R的一價有機基較佳為烷基,更佳為碳數1~20的直鏈及分支烷基。烷基亦可於烷基鏈中具有氧原子、硫原子、氮原子。The monovalent organic group as R is preferably an alkyl group, more preferably a linear or branched alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms. The alkyl group may have an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom or a nitrogen atom in the alkyl chain.

[化6] [Chemical 6]

式中,X及R分別與所述通式(1)中的X及R為相同含意。A表示-NR'-或氧原子。R'表示氫原子或一價有機基。*表示結合鍵。In the formula, X and R each have the same meaning as X and R in the above formula (1). A represents -NR'- or an oxygen atom. R' represents a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic group. * indicates a bond.

作為R'的一價有機基的具體例及較佳例與上文中關於作為R的一價有機基所述的具體例及較佳例相同。Specific examples and preferred examples of the monovalent organic group as R' are the same as the specific examples and preferred examples described above as the monovalent organic group as R.

化合物(A)較佳為具有醯胺基(於通式(1)中X表示氧原子)、脲基(於通式(2)中X表示氧原子,A表示-NR'-)或胺基甲酸酯基(於通式(2)中X表示氧原子,A表示-氧原子)作為通式(1)或通式(2)所表示的結構。The compound (A) preferably has a mercaptoamine group (wherein X represents an oxygen atom in the formula (1)), a urea group (wherein X represents an oxygen atom in the formula (2), and A represents -NR'-) or an amine group. The formate group (wherein X represents an oxygen atom in the formula (2), and A represents an -oxygen atom) is a structure represented by the formula (1) or the formula (2).

化合物(A)的共軛酸的pKa較佳為1以下。其原因在於:藉此,曝光部中由光酸產生劑所產生的酸不易被化合物(A)中和,基於酸的作用的所需反應充分地進行,故感度不易降低。The pKa of the conjugate acid of the compound (A) is preferably 1 or less. This is because the acid generated by the photoacid generator in the exposed portion is not easily neutralized by the compound (A), and the desired reaction by the action of the acid is sufficiently performed, so that the sensitivity is not easily lowered.

化合物(A)亦較佳為具有芳香族基,藉此,有構成圖案的成分的凝聚性進一步提高,解析性或粗糙度性能變得更良好的傾向。 於該情形時,化合物(A)可於通式(1)或通式(2)所表示的結構內具有芳香族基,亦可於通式(1)或通式(2)所表示的結構外具有芳香族基。前者的情形時,芳香族基分別包含於通式(1)的R、以及通式(2)的R及R'的至少一者中。It is also preferred that the compound (A) has an aromatic group, whereby the cohesiveness of the component constituting the pattern is further improved, and the analytical property or the roughness property tends to be further improved. In this case, the compound (A) may have an aromatic group in the structure represented by the formula (1) or the formula (2), or may be a structure represented by the formula (1) or the formula (2). It has an aromatic group outside. In the former case, the aromatic group is contained in at least one of R of the formula (1) and R and R' of the formula (2).

另外,尤其於形成正型圖案的情形時,亦較佳為通式(1)的R、以及通式(2)的R及R'的至少一者為具有拉電子性基的一價有機基。其原因在於:藉此,於曝光部中有通式(1)或通式(2)所表示的結構中的-NR-與-CX-間的鍵被由光酸產生劑所產生的酸切斷,構成抗蝕劑膜的成分的凝聚被解除的傾向,容易對曝光部進行顯影。Further, particularly in the case of forming a positive pattern, it is also preferred that at least one of R of the formula (1) and R and R' of the formula (2) is a monovalent organic group having an electron withdrawing group . The reason for this is that, in the exposed portion, the bond between -NR- and -CX- in the structure represented by the general formula (1) or the general formula (2) is acid-cut by the photoacid generator. The aggregation of the components constituting the resist film is released, and the exposed portion is easily developed.

Med. Chem.)」(16,1207(1973))、「藥物化學期刊(J. Med. Chem.)」(20,304(1977))及「化學研究(Chem. Rev.)」(91,165(1991))等中。The electron withdrawing group is preferably a group having a σp value of 0 or more in Hammett's rule.

Here, the value in parentheses is the σp value. The σp value of Hammett is also described, for example, in C. Harsch et al., J. Med. Chem. (16, 1207 (1973)), Journal of Medicinal Chemistry (J). Med. Chem.)" (20, 304 (1977)) and "Chem. Rev." (91, 165 (1991)).

另外,化合物(A)可具有極性基經藉由酸的作用發生分解而脫離的脫離基保護的結構(酸分解性基),亦可不具有該結構(酸分解性基),尤其於形成負型圖案的情形時,化合物(A)較佳為不具有酸分解性基。其原因在於:藉此,於曝光部中有化合物(A)不因由光酸產生劑所產生的酸而分解,構成圖案的成分的凝聚性不降低的傾向,容易獲得優異的解析性及粗糙度性能。Further, the compound (A) may have a structure (acid-decomposable group) protected by a leaving group in which a polar group is decomposed by decomposition by an action of an acid, or may have no such structure (acid-decomposable group), particularly in forming a negative type. In the case of a pattern, the compound (A) preferably does not have an acid-decomposable group. The reason for this is that the compound (A) is decomposed in the exposed portion by the acid generated by the photo-acid generator, and the cohesiveness of the components constituting the pattern does not decrease, and excellent resolution and roughness are easily obtained. performance.
