Abstract :
An edge-defined technique for the fabrication of submicrometre resist patterns is described. The technique consists of resist pattern fabrication, deep UV hardening, plasma deposition, spin coating of resist, developing back, and wet etch. A 100 nm line in 1.2 ¿m-thick resist layer is obtained with essentially vertical walls.
