摘要
An experimental investigation at energies of 2-6keV has been carried out on the positive chemically amplified resist AZPF 514. A new way of suppressing the "T-topping" effect, based on resist shower irradiation with low energy electrons, is suggested. This does not prevent contamination of the upper resist layer, but it does provide an easy method of removing the contaminated layer at the very start of resist development.
