*Headline*: Breakthrough in Semiconductor Patterning: New Block Copolymer
Achieves 7.6 nm Line Width
(Tokyo, August 29) A recently developed block copolymer could help push the
limits of integration and miniaturization in semiconductor manufacturing,
report scientists in Tokyo Tech and TOK.
Chemically tailored for reliable directed self-assembly, the proposed
compound can arrange itself into perpendicular lamellar structures whose
half-pitch width is less than 10
nanometers, outperforming conventional and widely used block copolymers.
