A generalized synthetic approach to phthalaldehyde derivatives using sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange click chemistry has been described, enabling the tethering of virtually any non-ionic photoacid generator (PAG) to phthalaldehyde and expanding the usable chemical space. The resulting polymers represent the first PAG-tethered self-immolative resists, displaying high contrast, extraordinary sensitivity, and low roughness under extreme ultraviolet exposure.
The resolution, line edge roughness, and sensitivity (RLS) trade-off has fundamentally limited the lithographic performance of chemically amplified resists. Production of next-generation transistors using extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography depends on a solution to this problem. A resist that simultaneously increases the effective reaction radius of its photogenerated acids while limiting their diffusion radius should provide an elegant solution to the RLS barrier. Here, we describe a generalized synthetic approach to phthalaldehyde derivatives using sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange click chemistry that dramatically expands usable chemical space by enabling virtually any non-ionic photoacid generator (PAG) to be tethered to phthalaldehyde. The resulting polymers represent the first ever PAG-tethered self-immolative resists in an architecture that simultaneously displays high contrast, extraordinary sensitivity, and low roughness under EUV exposure. We believe this class of resists will ultimately enable researchers to overcome the RLS trade-off.
