USING ELECTRIC-FIELD DIRECTED POST-EXPOSURE BAKE FOR DOUBLE PATTERNING (D-P)

摘要

The invention provides a method of processing a substrate using Double-Patterning (D-P) processing sequences and Electric-Field Enhanced Layers (E-FELs). The D-P processing sequences and E-FELs can be used to create lines, trenches, vias, spacers, contacts, and gate structures using a minimum number of etch processes.
