Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Nonpolymeric compounds, compositions, and methods for forming microelectronic structures, and the structures formed therefrom are provided. The nonpolymeric compounds are ring-opened, epoxide-adamantane derivatives that comprise at least two epoxy moieties and at least one adamantyl group, along with at least one chemical modification group, such as a chromophore, bonded to a respective epoxy moiety. Anti-reflective and/or planarization compositions can be formed using these compounds and used in lithographic processes, including fabrication of microelectronic structures.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed: 1. A planarizing and/or anti-reflective composition useful in forming microelectronic structures, said planarizing and/or anti-reflective composition comprising a nonpolymeric compound, a catalyst, and a crosslinking agent dispersed or dissolved in a solvent system, said nonpolymeric compound comprising at least two epoxy moieties and at least one adamantyl group, wherein at least one of said epoxy moieties is of the formula:…
