    Abstract: In the context of forming radiation patternable structures especially for EUV patterning, wafer structures are described comprising a substrate having a smooth top surface and a radiation sensitive organometallic coating having an average thickness of no more than 100 nm and no more than about 1 defect per square centimeter with a defect size of greater than 48 nm, evaluated with a 3 mm edge exclusion. Corresponding methods for forming a low defect coating comprise spin coating a purified radiation sensitive organometallic resist solution onto a wafer using a spin coater system comprising a delivery line and a delivery nozzle connected to the delivery line to form a coated wafer, and drying the coated wafer to form a radiation sensitive organometallic coating having no more than about 1 defect per square centimeter with a defect size of greater than 48 nm, evaluated with a 3 mm edge exclusion. Methods are provided for improved filtering for particle removal from radiation patternable organometallic resist compositions.
