Abstract

ABSTRACTIn this paper, a method of direct electron beam lithographic deposition of metal and metal oxide films is demonstrated using metal organic complexes. In this method, a solution of a metal complex is used to spin coat a substrate to obtain a precursor film. The precursor film is then directly patterned by electron beam writing. A solvent is then used to develop the latent image. Using examples of titanium, tantalum, zirconium, and gold, we illustrate patterning of metal and metal oxide films and both positive and negative deposition. The feature size demonstrated is as low as 14 nm while the demonstrated aspect ratio is as high as 11.
