    摘要: A protective film forming composition forms a flat film having good mask function against a wet etching liquid during a semiconductor substrate processing, high dry etching rate and good coverage of a substrate with level difference, while having small film thickness difference after embedding. A protective film is produced using this composition. A substrate has a resist pattern. A method produces a semiconductor device. A composition forms a protective film against a wet etching liquid for semiconductors, containing a solvent and a ring-opened polymer (C) obtained by reaction between a diepoxy compound (A) and a bi- or higher functional proton-generating compound (B). The ring-opened polymer (C) is preferably represented by a unit structure of formula (A-1). (In formula (A-1), Q represents a divalent organic group generated by the diepoxy compound (A) ring-opening polymerization; and T represents a divalent organic group derived from the bi- or higher functional proton-generating compound (B)).

    摘要: A semiconductor device manufacturing process, forming a multilayer structure of a metal oxide (e.g., copper oxide) and a resist underlayer film on a stepped metal substrate reduces exposure reflectance from the substrate, thereby reducing standing waves of the resist pattern (defects caused by reflection) and provides a favorable rectangular resist pattern on the substrate. A pattern-equipped substrate manufacturing method includes: a step for performing an oxidation treatment on a substrate containing metal on a surface thereof to form a metal oxide film on the substrate surface; a step for applying a resist on the metal oxide film and conducting baking to form a resist film; a step for exposing a semiconductor substrate covered by the metal oxide film and the resist; and a step for developing the exposed resist film and conducting patterning.

    摘要: A composition for protective film formation can form a flat film that satisfactorily functions as a mask (protection) against wet etchants during semiconductor substrate processing and has a low dry etching rate, the composition having satisfactory covering and recess-filling properties when applied to rugged substrates and having a small thickness difference after the recess filling. A protective film, a resist underlayer film, and a resist-pattern-coated substrate each produced using the composition; and a method for producing a semiconductor device. The composition, which is for forming films for protection against wet etchants for semiconductors, includes an organic solvent and a compound that has a molecular end having a structure including at least one pair of adjoining hydroxyl groups and has a molecular weight of 1,500 or less, wherein particles present therein have an average particle diameter, as determined by a dynamic light scattering method, of 3 nm or smaller.
