Abstract

6 MeV/u ion beams such as Si¹⁴⁺, Ar¹⁸⁺, Kr³⁶⁺ and Xe⁵⁴⁺ and 30 kV Ga⁺ focused ion beam (FIB) were irradiated to a chemically amplified deep-UV resist TDUR-P722 (Tokyo Ohka Kogyo) and electron beam (EB) resists ZEP520A and ZEP7000 (ZEON). Clear patterns were obtained on all resists for high energy ion beams, and it was confirmed that resist sensitivities were correlated with the energy deposition. In contrast, high flux FIB irradiation induced crosslinking reactions of resist polymers, and positive-negative inversion took place.
