We investigated the possibility of ordering of 12 nm pitced self-assembled nanodots from block copolymer (BCP) improved by the guide pattern with low line edge roughness (LER) for patterned media. We found that LER of the line pattern (σ-value) was reduced by using high-resolution salty development for HSQ resist line pattern fabrication compared with conventional tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide (TMAH) developer. By adopting this development technique to guide pattern fabrication, we demonstrated 10 rows of ordered self-assembled BCP nanodot arrays with a size of 6 nm and a pitch of 12 nm (5 Tbit/in.2) between the guide patterns.

In this work, we employ large-scale coarse-grained molecular dynamics (CGMD) simulations to study the three-dimensional line edge roughness associated with line and space patterns of chemo-epitaxially directed symmetric block copolymers.

Abstract As MOSFET device gate lengths shrink below the 130 nanometer node, the effects of short channel effects (SCE) and gate line edge roughness (LER) have an increasingly more pronounced affect on device performance [1-8, 10]. The 2001 International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) predicts increasingly tighter critical dimensions (CD) control limits on LER from 2.7 nm in 2004 to 1.3 nm in 2010 [9,11]. As gate lengths shrink, resist etch processes emerge as the most significant contributor to LER [1-8, 11]. In addition, another contributing factor to SCE is junction implant defects. Examples of gate LER effects and junction defects in 130 nanometer node SOI SRAM MOSFET devices identified by sub-micron electrical characterization with analysis by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) are discussed.
