摘要
A three dimensional model has been developed to simulate chemical amplification resists. This model does not assume that the exposure of the resist yields a continuous, smooth distribution of photoproducts. Rather, we consider explicitly a distribution consisting of discrete sites. Information theory is used to gain a quantitative understanding of the stochastic nature of the exposure and post exposure bake processes.
