Abstract

A water-developable sugar-based negative resist material was developed. This material enables the use of pure water in the development process of electron beam (EB) green lithography instead of conventionally used aqueous alkaline developers and organic solvents. The sugar-based negative resist material was developed by replacing the hydroxyl groups in alpha-linked disaccharides with EB-sensitive 2-methacryloyloxyethyl groups. The sugar-based negative resist material features highly efficient crosslinking and low film thickness shrinkage under EB irradiation. It is demonstrated to be applicable to green lithography with a 100– 500 nm line-and-space pattern and an EB exposure dose of 18 μC/cm2.
