Directed self-assembly (DSA) process has been introduced and developed for more than a decade as one of the alternative advanced patterning techniques in the semiconductor industry. Block copolymer (BCP) is self-assembling into the desired pattern on the lithographically defined pre-pattern on the wafer. Such a bottom-up approach is used to define the pattern which is typically hard to achieve with the traditional top-down approach. As an example, the density of the pattern can be increased with DSA by the factor of 3 or 4 from the 193i lithography pattern. Although similar dimension becomes now accessible with EUV lithography, DSA keeps its benefit; the structure is simply defined by the phase separation of materials rather than the complex light-matter interactions as required for EUV resist patterning. In this presentation, we will discuss the synergetic impact of the combination of EUV and DSA.
