Ultrathin Fullerene Films as High-Resolution Molecular Resists for Low-Voltage Electron-Beam Lithography

Hard to resist: Films of methanofullerenes (see scheme) can be used as resists for lithography at low electron‐beam energies (0.2 to 5 keV). Improvements in the sensitivity and maintained etch durability are seen as the electron energies are reduced from 20 to 1 keV. High‐resolution patterning is al...

description Hard to resist: Films of methanofullerenes (see scheme) can be used as resists for lithography at low electron‐beam energies (0.2 to 5 keV). Improvements in the sensitivity and maintained etch durability are seen as the electron energies are reduced from 20 to 1 keV. High‐resolution patterning is also demonstrated at low energies. The small molecular size of the fullerene derivatives alleviates problems associated with line‐edge roughness.
