More Information
Summary:Semiconductor structures fabricated via extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithographic patterning techniques implementing directional deposition on a EUV resist mask improves selectivity and critical dimension control during the patterning of features in multiple layers of the semiconductor substrate. A semiconductor structure includes a substrate structure having an extreme ultraviolet resist mask disposed over one or more additional layers of the substrate structure. The extreme ultraviolet resist mask defines patterning features. A hard mask layer including a hard mask material is disposed on the extreme ultraviolet resist mask and covers the patterning features of the extreme ultraviolet resist mask.
