20090155725 | Method of fine patterning semiconductor device - For patterning during integrated circuit fabrication, an image layer is activated for forming a respective first type polymer block at each of two nearest activated areas. A layer of block copolymer is formed on the image layer, and a plurality of the first type polymer blocks and a plurality of second and third types of polymer blocks are formed on an area of the image layer between outer edges of the two nearest activated areas, from the block copolymer. At least one of the first, second, and third types of polymer blocks are removed to form a variety of mask structures. | 06-18-2009 |
20090191713 | METHOD OF FORMING FINE PATTERN USING BLOCK COPOLYMER - Provided is a method of forming a fine pattern using a block copolymer. The method comprises forming a coating layer including a block copolymer having a plurality of repeating units on a substrate. A mold is provided having a first pattern comprising a plurality of ridges and valleys. The first pattern is transferred from the mold into the coating layer. Then, a self-assembly structure is formed comprising a plurality of polymer blocks aligned in a direction guided by the ridges and valleys of the mold thereby rearranging the repeating units of the block copolymer within the coating layer by phase separation while the coating layer is located within the valleys of the mold. A portion of the polymer blocks are removed from among the plurality of polymer blocks and a self-assembly fine pattern of remaining polymer blocks is formed. | 07-30-2009 |
20120003587 | METHOD OF FORMING FINE PATTERNS USING A BLOCK COPOLYMER - A method of patterning a substrate includes processing first regions of the substrate to form a first pattern, the first regions defining a second region between adjacent first regions, arranging a block copolymer on the first and second regions, the block copolymer including a first component and a second component, the first component of the block copolymer being aligned on the first regions, and selectively removing one of the first component and the second component of the block copolymer to form a second pattern having a pitch that is less than a pitch of a first region and an adjacent second region. | 01-05-2012 |
