Abstract
Negative resist image distortion is caused by resist swelling during develo pment and is a major problem in ultrahigh resolution electron beam lithogra phy. This problem has been overcome through the use of ultrasonically assis ted development. In addition, exposure dose latitude is increased by 50% co mpared to conventional dip development, due to the improvement in contrast. These advantages have been exploited in order to realize similar to6 nm wi de lines in calixarene resist. (C) 2001 American Vacuum Society.
