Definitions
- the present invention applies to the field of electronic lithography.
- the costs of equipment and developments for a new generation of technology are consequently increasing in very high proportions.
- Today, the critical dimensions accessible in photolithography are greater than or equal to 65 nm.
- the 32-45 nm generation is under development and there is no viable solution for technology nodes below 22 nm.
- the present invention solves this problem by providing a method of combined optimization of the energy of the applied electronic radiation and the area of application which makes it possible to reduce in significant proportions the necessary increase in the radiation dose and therefore the times. exposure.
- the invention provides a method of radiation lithography of at least one pattern to be etched on a resinated support comprising a step of calculating modulation of at least one radiated dose and a step of calculating at least one adjustment to be made to said pattern to be etched in at least one direction of the medium, said method being characterized in that said adjustment is a function of the energy latitude of the process at the point where the radiated dose is received and in that the modulation of the dose radiated is modified according to said at least one adjustment of said at least one pattern.
- the modulation calculation step of at least one radiated dose is performed by convolution of said pattern with a function of distributing said radiated dose on said support.
- said radiated dose is calculated before modulation under stress that the average radiated dose is substantially at a level of the sensitivity threshold of the resin chosen as a parameter.
- the sensitivity threshold level parameter of the resin is chosen substantially equal to 0.5.
- the energy latitude (EL) of the process at the point where the radiated dose is received is calculated as belonging to the group consisting of the slope of the tangent at this point to the curve of the doses received, the contrast of the radiated doses and the slope of dose.
- the adjustment to be made to the pattern centered on one of the reception points of a dose radiated in the at least one direction is calculated as being equal to the distance oriented on the sensitivity threshold line of the resin at 0.5. the process between the intersection of said threshold line with the tangent of slope EL to the curve of the doses received at said reception point and secondly the radiation dose curve.
- the calculation steps for modulation of the radiated dose and adjustment of the pattern to be etched are repeated for as long as the dose variation radiated on a reception point of a modulation calculation to the previous one remains greater than a predetermined threshold value.
- the modulation calculation step of at least one radiated dose is performed using a parameter table.
- the doses radiated in the middle of the pattern before adjustment are all substantially equal to a normal dose.
- the doses radiated in the middle of the pattern before adjustment are all substantially equal to a percentage of a normal dose.
- the percentage of a normal dose is set at a value substantially equal to 70% of said normal dose.
- said adjustment comprises at least one spacing without radiation and at least one radiated dose.
- a dose is radiated outside the pattern to be etched.
- said at least one dose radiated outside the pattern to be etched is spaced from the pattern to be etched by a distance of between 0.2 times and 3 times the bandwidth.
- the invention also provides a computer program comprising program code instructions for performing the radiation lithography method of at least one pattern to be engraved on a resinated support when the program is performed on a computer, said program comprising a module for calculating modulation of at least one radiated dose and a module for calculating at least one adjustment to be made to said pattern to be etched in at least one direction of the medium, said program of computer characterized in that said adjustment calculation to be made to the pattern is a function of the energy latitude of the process at the point where the radiated dose is received and in that the modulation of the radiated dose is changed according to the at least one adjustment of the at least one pattern.
- the invention also has the advantage of correcting the adverse effects of prior art proximity correction methods, such as the loss of linearity, the increase in the IDB (Isolated Dense Bias ie difference between critical dimensions for isolated and dense structures), increased shortening of line endings ("Line End Shortening” or “LES”), loss of precision due to corner rounding effects, reduction energy latitude (“Energy Latitude” or “EL”) that occur when these methods are applied.
- These defects of proximity effect correction methods such as those described in US Pat. No. 6,107,207 have been exposed in particular in the S. Manakli publication, “New Electron Beam Proximity Effect Correction Approach for 45 and 32 nm Nodes", Japanese Journal of Applied Physics, Vol. 45, No. 8A, pp. 6462-6467.

- FIG. 7 shows the new process window resulting from the application of the method of the invention in one of its embodiments
- FIG. 7bis illustrates the principle of optimizing the energy latitude on the edges of a network of dense lines according to one embodiment of the invention in which at least one pattern is etched outside said network;
- FIGS. 8a and 8b illustrate the results of the application of the method of the invention to a dense network
- FIG. 9 represents a flowchart of the central part of the method for implementing the invention according to one of its embodiments.
- FIG. 10 graphically illustrates the central portion of the proximity effect correction method in one embodiment of the invention.
- FIGS. 1a and 1b respectively show schematically a network of dense lines to be etched and a distribution of the radiated doses after application of a correction method of the prior art to the radiated doses.
- Figure 1a shows a dense network of lines to be engraved on a portion of wafer or mask.
- the spacing between lines of the network will typically be from one to several tens of nanometers.
- the beam (s) of electrons used for etching this grating diffuse notably in short distance (forward scattering or blur) in the resin and the substrate on the edges of the center of the beam, which increases the size of the beam and reduces the contrast.
- the electrons are completely backscattered over a long distance (backward scattering).
- the radiated dose distribution around the desired critical dimension of etching in a sectional plane of a line of the grating is illustrated in FIG. 3.
- the alpha, 31, and beta regions 32 of the different lines are superimposed on each other. which causes a gap between the etched network and the drawn network created by these proximity effects resulting from these diffusions which are mixed. At the end of the line and at the edge of the network, there is no overlap.
- the patterns of the network are therefore modified asymmetrically as illustrated by curve 41 of FIG. 4: the dose received at the edge of the network is smaller than that received in the middle of the network.
- a conventional method of correcting the proximity effects of a lithography process then consists of modulating the radiated doses and increasing those applied to the lines situated at the edge of the network to compensate for this relative decrease in exposure.
- the result of the application of such a method on the radiated dose distribution is illustrated by the curve 42 of FIG.
- the unit is first fractured and then the radiated dose modulations are calculated for each unit element.
- computation using a convolution is one of the most efficient, one can imagine other types of calculations:
- a convolution function of the electron distribution in the material is applied for calculating the modulation to be applied to the radiation at each etching step.
- Said convolution function is given in FIG. 2 in which:
- - D (x, y) represents the distribution in the plane of the substrate (x, y) of the dose received on the pattern to be etched;
- f (x, y) represents the surface distribution of the dose emitted with modeling of proximity effects; the hypothesis of a Gaussian distribution of proximity effects is generally made, as shown in Figure 3; the distribution function is modeled by dual integration of the Point Spread Function ("PSF") which is itself a combination of Gaussian error functions (ERF function); f (x, y) is modeled by the formula:
- PSF Point Spread Function
- ERP Gaussian error functions
- o a is the width of the direct radiation
- o ⁇ is the ratio of direct and backscattered radiation intensities.
- ⁇ , ⁇ and ⁇ are determined experimentally for a given process. These parameters depend on the acceleration voltage of the machine. Typically for an acceleration voltage of the order of 50KV, a is of the order of 50nm, ⁇ of the order of 10 ⁇ and ⁇ of the order of 0.5.
- error modeling is used with two ERF functions. One can also use error modeling with one, three, four or even more ERF functions. It is also possible to use other types of modeling, for example polynomials.
- the application of the inverse transformation (deconvolution) makes it possible to calculate the modulation to be applied to the radiated dose at each step of the process.
- the inversion can also be done other than by deconvolution, for example by applying an optimization function, a resolution of a system of equations or an iterative procedure.
- Other exemplary embodiments are given in the present description.
- Figure 1b illustrates the distribution of radiated doses after applying the above correction method to the line network of Figure 1a.
- the significant increase in radiated doses to be applied at the edge of the network significantly increases the duration of the necessary exposure, which is a limitation of this prior art that the present invention overcomes.
- the exposure time must be multiplied by a factor of 2 to 4 on the network edges with respect to the center.
- FIG. 5 is a simplified representation, in the case of application of a method of the prior art presented above, of the distribution of the radiated doses over the entire width of the network in the modulation method described above (bars 51 of Figure 5) and an aerial view of this distribution (curve 52 of Figure 5) which represents the process window.
- the line 53 represents the sensitivity threshold of the resin at 0.5 times the normal dose.
- a threshold of 0.5 is advantageous, but other values may also be chosen.
- the chosen threshold value then constitutes a parameter that can chosen in the computer program designed to implement the method of the invention.
- the line 54 represents the energy latitude slope of the process at the point of shot applied by the radiation device.
- the size of a shot 55 located in the middle of the pattern is in the exemplary embodiment described here of 1.6 m ⁇ 1.6 ⁇ m.
- the dose applied at these points away from the edges of the pattern will be equal to the standard dose (standardized to 1).
- the devices of the prior art apply much higher doses (typically from 2 to 4 or even 6) with smaller shots, typically 1 ⁇ x 1 ⁇ .
- the increase in the exposure time results both from the increase in the number of shots related to the specific physical fracturing performed at the edges (almost doubled) and the increase of the doses radiated on these shots of the edges.
- FIGS. 6 and 7 The method of the invention, and its distinguishing characteristics with respect to the methods of the prior art presented above are illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7 which must be read in comparison with FIG. 5.
- radiation dose 61 1a, 612a, 613a, 614a, 615a, (and their symmetries on the other edge of the network to be etched) which are applied by a method of the prior art and which can be removed by a method according to a first embodiment of the invention, the radiated doses 61 1, 612, 613, 614, 615 (as well as doses radiated on the other edge of the network of lines to be etched).
- the gain in exposure time is of the order of 62% (the cumulative dose increases from 90 to 34 normal doses).
- the gain is squared and is therefore in the above example of the order of 86%.
- FIG. 7 illustrates the impact of the method of the invention on the curve of the received dose which is shifted from 710 to 720.
- the received dose resulting from the application of the method of the invention 720 thus has, as illustrated, a straight front which translates a greater energy latitude, and slightly shifted towards the outside of the network, which translates an elimination of the effects of proximity.
- the methods for the joint calculation of the doses radiated at each shot, the widening of the edges of the network and the energy latitude are explained later in the description in comments in FIGS. 9 and 10.
- FIG. 7bis illustrates the principle of optimization the energy latitude on the edges of a network of dense lines according to one embodiment of the invention wherein at least one pattern is etched outside said network.
- Another advantageous embodiment consists in leaving a space, 620bis, between the pattern to be etched and the band added, 61 Obis, and, optionally, adding at least a second outer band, 630bis, also separated from the first by a space.
- this spacing improves the energy latitude of the process.
- the dose applied to the medium of the motif can be reduced, for example by 30%, to 0.7 times the normal dose without degradation of the quality of engraving.
- Other values are however possible. These values constituting a parameter that can be chosen in the computer program configured to implement the method of the invention.
- Figures 8a and 8b illustrate the results of the application of the method of the invention to a dense network.
- FIG. 8a illustrates, on the one hand, the pattern to be engraved, 810, on the other hand the pattern corrected by the method of the invention, 820.
- Figure 8b illustrates the actually etched pattern.
- FIG. 9 represents a flowchart of the central part of the method for implementing the invention according to one of its embodiments.
- the illustrated example is that of a combination of a resizing of the patterns to be etched and a dose modulation as shown in FIG.
- the method of the invention begins with a reading of the design.
- the lay-out of the patterns to be engraved is conventionally encoded in files in GDS II format (Graphie Data System version2) or OASIS (Open Artwork System Interchange Standard).
- the data is normally grouped by cell.
- the pattern to be etched is then pre-fractured into compatible subassemblies of the transfer device (direct or electronic etching, manufacture of masks for electronic or optical etching, etc.).
- the ideal dose of the shot is calculated so that, on average, all midpoints of the edges of the shot shot are adjusted to the threshold of sensitivity of the resin, for example to 0.5 times the normal dose, other values being possible, said threshold can be set as a parameter in the computer program configured to implement the method of the invention.
- the slope EL of the dose curve is calculated at this point which is equal to the process window or energy latitude.
- next step 930 a linear interpolation is calculated at this point of the dose curve.
- next step 940 the point of intersection between the linear interpolation and the 0.5 threshold is calculated.
- the Edge Placement Error (EPE) is calculated which is equal to the distance between the intersection point at the exit of step 940 and the edge of the shot.
- the edge of the pattern to be engraved is corrected by applying to the initial pattern the distance oriented at the output of the preceding step.
- This basic process is adjusted to take into account the space available on both sides of the pattern. If there is enough space to add extra bands to the outside of the design, this is the preferred solution.
- a uniform normal dose (or reduced to 0.7, as indicated above) is applied inside the pattern in substitution for modulations calculated everywhere except on the border (s) on the outside of the pattern.
- the dose applied outside the initial design pattern can be calculated by applying the convolution formulas discussed above or by using an experience parameter table.
- the resizing is limited and the results of the dose modulation calculation are used.
- the dose modulation is then readjusted from the design correction.
- the correction process is repeated until the dose variation from one iteration on the loop to the next is less than a threshold.
- the process is repeated 2 or 3 times to take into account the profiles introduced on the neighboring patterns. For example, initialize with a resizing of 500 nm and stop at 1 or 1, 5 ⁇ . In this case the slope EL does not move from one iteration to another.
- Figure 10 graphically illustrates the method of correcting proximity effects in one embodiment of the invention.
- Segments 1010 represent the initial shot.
- Curve 1020 represents the dose received.
- the line 1030 represents the threshold at 0.5.
- the line 1040 represents the interpolated line at the output of step 930.
- the oriented segment 1050 represents ⁇ which gives the correction applied to the initial pattern to be engraved.
- ⁇ which gives the correction applied to the initial pattern to be engraved.
- TEL defined as the slope of Dose (x).
- the method of the invention has been described in an exemplary application to a direct write electronic lithography method. It can also be applied to another direct writing method using other particles such as ions, photons or electronic or optical lithography methods using masks.
