ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a process for self-limiting trim etch of patterned photoresist that will allow integrated circuit fabrication to achieve smaller integrated circuit component features and greatly reduce final critical dimension drift or variation. Trim time is set in a plateau region of the critical dimension loss process curve.
