Popis: This paper shows the suitabilily of i-line photolithography for production at 0.30 tm. The process performance is demonstrated through the use of off-axis illumination, high NA projection lens, and a state of the art photoresist system. The minimum required depth of focus for a suitable 0.30 tm process is derived as 0.95 tm over at least a 10% process window. This will result in a 0.60 m common corridor over a square 22 mm imaging feId. In addition to the dense and isolated lines, a preliminary investigation of contact hole performance using chrome and phase shift masks was completed.
