ABSTRACT:
An adhesion promoter to help reduce semiconductor process effects, such as undesired line edge roughness, insufficient lithographical resolution, and limited depth of focus problems associated with the removal of a photoresist layer. A photoactive adhesion promoter (PAG) is described which helps reduce these and other undesired effects associated with the removal of photoresist in a semiconductor manufacturing process.
