Nanometer Pattern Delineation by Electron and Ion Beam Lithography

Abstract
Nanometer pattern delineation techniques have been investigated using electron and ion beam lithography. About a 20 nm wide resist and Au pattern was formed by 40 keV electron beam exposure and a lift-off technique. For ion beam lithography, about 60 nm wide patterns were formed by 50 keV H+ exposure and by using a thin carbon membrane mask. It was confirmed that a H+ beam exposure gives a very high contrast ratio and a high resolution patterning.
