Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100183957Method of Patterned Media Template Formation and Templates - Aspects include methods to produce pattern media templates and the templates. A pattern of resist structures is formed on a first material layer. A conformal layer of a second material is deposited on the resist pattern, covering tops and side walls of the resist structures. The first material is more resistant to ion milling than the second material, and less resistant to plasma etching than the second material. The first material can be amorphous carbon and the second material can be aluminum oxide. The second material is removed on the tops, and preserved on the side walls. The resist structures and portions of the first layer not supporting second layer material are removed by plasma. The remaining structure is 2× denser than the resist pattern. Conformal deposition of second material and ion milling can be repeated. CMP removes the second material down to a portion of remaining first material, and remaining first material is removed by plasma, leaving a 4× denser pitch pattern structure formed from the second material.07-22-2010
