Abstract:Background: Patterning of very tight pitches suffers from stochastic variations that can impact yield. Different patterning processes with lower stochastic variations are preferred when those lower variations have a quantifiable benefit in terms of device yield or performance. Aim: Here two different process flows, a traditional EUV patterning flow and one involving directed self-assembly (DSA) rectification, will be compared to determine the differences expected in device failure rates, with the failure mecha… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
