ABSTRACT:
The present invention teaches a two-and-one-half-level resist process, wherein a first planarizing resist layer is applied, an anti-reflective coating (which need not be a photoresist itself) is applied, and then a top photoresist layer is applied. The top layer is patterned conventionally, at a wavelength which the anti-reflective coating absorbs, and a flood exposure (preferably in deep ultraviolet light) is then used to transfer this pattern to the bottom planarizing resist layer. Good patterning of non-planar surfaces despite topography is thus achieved, and pattern degradation due to spurious reflections (e.g., from an aluminum layer being patterned) is avoided.
